Subjective:

  • Job/Work Experience: tutoring (competition math, as well as SAT)

Reflection
  • Strengths: objective stuff
  • Weaknesses: wealthy, not 'techy'
  • Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: over qualified maybe. Don't fit the profile (affluent and white).
  • What would you have done differently?: Dont think I could have done any better. MIT isn't what it used to be I guess... Already got into Caltech.


Other Factors: pretty ****ed but I'll probably go to an ivy anyways. Should have done SCEA at HYP


General Comments & Advice: skills don't mean **** if you don't fit their quotas

GPA3.9太低,是白人,有可能。 -老生常谈12- 给 老生常谈12 发送悄悄话 老生常谈12 的博客首页 (0 bytes) () 12/03/2013 postreply 06:44:07

3.9就一定太低?还看学校吧。我觉得他的数据超强了,只能说M还是太难了,唉~ -kitty_cat- 给 kitty_cat 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 12/03/2013 postreply 06:48:03

GPA3.9 out of 4.0不低了。会不会除了竞赛有关的活动其他什么都没有。可内可外都只在抓竞赛了 -seabright123- 给 seabright123 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 12/03/2013 postreply 07:12:00

Unweighted 3.9 is pretty high. -陌上花开缓缓行- 给 陌上花开缓缓行 发送悄悄话 (103 bytes) () 12/03/2013 postreply 07:28:39

见过类似的stat,有数学奖,intel奖,还上了不少AP。被CMU拒了。估计是其他活动没有或没花多少时间。 -seabright123- 给 seabright123 发送悄悄话 (2 bytes) () 12/03/2013 postreply 07:18:19

我觉得这里太强调EC了,俺知道一犹太娃,除了USAMO,啥也不玩,进了M和P,但是芝加哥却没有要他 -kitty_cat- 给 kitty_cat 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 12/03/2013 postreply 07:20:01

被CMU拒了恐怕是知道他不会来。以免影响数据。 -money4ivy- 给 money4ivy 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 12/03/2013 postreply 07:20:12
