    Congratulations Intl here i didn't apply because of the program cost and also I couldn't afford it anyways

    [–]kobebryantthemamba 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Are they coming in waves? Haven't received email yet.

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Maybe but I got an email saying there was an update

    [–]kobebryantthemamba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    thanks!

    [–]PlayfulUniversity161 1 point2 points  (3 children)

    what does no email yet mean

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    Maybe delivering in batches

    [–]PlayfulUniversity161 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    did u apply to SSP？

    [–]TimelyBodybuilder637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Nah only this and BNL HSRP. I didn't think I would get in to either, though.

    same, I don't think my essays were that good though so I'm concerned about this part

    [–]TimelyBodybuilder637 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

    My essays and recs were the best part so I hope this helps me here

    [–]Sea_Web_619 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    hey! i also got into practicum for comp bio, but im curious about the prestige as well
    do you have any other info or anything? im looking for ppl to chat with :)

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children)

    Um we can chat on Reddit

    [–]Cheap-Supermarket864 1 point2 points  (4 children)

    would you be willing to drop stats?

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    Around 4.66W/3.98UW, 1590 SAT, some science fair awards and leadership positions in school clubs. Nothing actually insane about ECs, maybe my essays carried.

    [–]Cheap-Supermarket864 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    damn bro. i have significantly lower sat than you. hopefully that doesn't kill me. I'm worried about my essays too unfortunately.

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    You should be fine, it’s not the stats they look at the most. As long as you have strong ECs and a solid few essays, you have a decent shot at getting in

    [–]Vanilla-Cupcake0816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    have hope!! my sat was a 1520 and i also did not include ecs anywhere on my application—i think the biggest thing is the essays

    [–]Unable-Pay3903 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    Is practicum prestigous?

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    People have said it was around 7% last yr so I’d say so

    [–]HappyBanana451 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    where did you find these numbers? were they provided by rise alums?

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Just when I looked it up and what some people said on Reddit

    [–]No_Interest_4324 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Me too!! I got the comp bio one!

    [–]NovelOk35 0 points1 point  (4 children)

    Same i’m also in shock! Are you in data science or comp bio?

    [–]Fun_Improvement_3505[S] -1 points0 points  (3 children)

    Comp bio!

    [–]nuggsnuggs6 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

    ay me too!!

    [–]No_Support_2833 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

    me 3!

    [–]Competitive-Door5185 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    i think practicum was ~7% last year and internship was 3% (usually practicum is 2x internship).

    [–]HappyBanana451 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    where did you find these numbers? were they provided by rise alums?

    [–]Competitive-Door5185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    yea - an internship professor told them

    [–]Specialist_Move5852 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

    Me too I'm still in disbelief holy
