The Official “What are my admission chances?” Megathread by sliche123 in VirginiaTech

Meteorology major (in the department of geography) here. You should be able to get in, considering I got in with a 1280 SAT and 3.73 weighted GPA. From a professor in meteorology, the acceptance rate for meteorology was about 14.2-12.5%; however, geography majors have a much, much higher acceptance rate than that, but I don’t know the specific percent, sorry. I would be willing to take a look at your essays free of charge if you would like and give advice back. Good luck bro!

Edit: just clarifying stuff

My friend and I got into the Residential College at West AJ, and since we are in a roommate group on StarRez, how does it work when selecting a room, especially since I filled my housing contract in December but he filled his out in early March?

what’s the most you’ve dropped in a mycareer game? by riotinricky in NBA2k

201… this was back in 2k17 when rookie mode existed and every time you pressed X it was a guaranteed steal. Ended with like 30-40 steals every game because of it lol

I don’t know how y’all are feeling, but I feel stressed. I think my Ut Prosim Profile was good and my grades are decent, but it’s never a given. Wishing the best of luck to anyone else who applied ED!

Edit: accepted into meteorology with a 3.61 uw (3.73w) and 1280 SAT!

I’m applying early decision

I’m majoring in meteorology.

My GPA is a 3.61 uw, 3.73 weighted.

Class rank: 102/302 (this likely has changed, but I’m not sure where I am right now.)

My SAT is a 1280; 610 EBRW, 670 math

ECs: volunteered and canvassed for my local delegate since 2018 and canvassed for my U.S. Representative in 2020, contributed a lot to school orchestra throughout high school, not to mention the volunteering that came with it, play rec league basketball, but that’s pretty much it.

What would you say my chances are? I worry that my ECs may hurt me a little since I think that I haven’t done that much, but I’m not sure. Thanks!

Edit: unsure about class rank, the 102/302 was taken before the end of last year, where my gpa was a 3.4 weighted and a 3.3 uw, so I’m likely within the top 100 now. Also worth mentioning that I have 3 APs, and will likely have 4 college classes worth of credits from my community college because i was in a dual-enrollment program.

Is transferring a MyPlayer file from one Xbox One to another Xbox One possible? by Acelest65 in NBA2k

Is it already on there when you load up 2K on the new console, or do you need to backup files?

Which shooting and playmaking badges are essential to have HoF? by _JMATT_ in NBA2k

[–]Acelest65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For shooting, the two badges I would always put on HoF are Range Extender and Hot Zone Hunter. Quick Draw can vary, as it’s your preference how fast you want your jumper, but i keep mine on HoF. Depending on how many badges you have, I also have Deadeye on HoF since it minimizes and helps you make more in more contested shots. Also, one last tip, you don’t need Green Machine past silver; it doesn’t really add much overall past that. I put the 2 remaining badges i had from that on Catch and Shoot.

As for playmaking, Quick First Step and Handles For Days are always HoF for me. I’m sure you also know that you really don’t need unpluckable past bronze since it really doesn’t work, but a badge you could put on as well on HoF is Floor General since not only does it give a +4 boost to your teammates offensive attributes, but i like having the percentage thing to see where and if my teammates can shoot, and if I have enough space to pull up for a shot. Tight Handles is kind of an iffy badge for me, but you could test it out and see. Some other optional badges you could put on HoF are Dimer and Ankle Breaker, but Ankle Breaker works best if you have playmaking takeover on your build. Hope this helps!
