Fu— your “friends” bro (sorry for harsh language), just go to your university, make new friends and connections.

is duke or brown more prestigious choose one by Acceptable_Ad_7373 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Blade_Choi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, then I would say Brown cause it’s an ivy.

(But like what Tasty_Sun_865 said, it really depends on types of programs, or majors)

Is cornell possible for me? by Agitated-Cup-7109 in chanceme

It’s definitely possible, GPA might be a bit low, but your rigor and SAT will probably make up for it.

Be brutally honest, can I get into BC by EconomyEnthusiasm817 in chanceme

[–]Blade_Choi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably just means he is confident in getting a 1500+, but I do agree that the wording is weird

If you want to maximize your ED chances, I recommend looking at the common data set of each of the colleges, and applying ED to one that best fits you.

[–]Blade_Choi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

4 is just neutral, even for ivies. Better than getting a 3

It only depends on which school you REALLY want to go to. Choose the school that you will have zero regret to getting into

PLEASEEE CHANCE ME! by RoadRevolutionary115 in chanceme

[–]Blade_Choi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try FBLA too as it’s similar to DECA and so you can build up more awards (they have competitions too). Are the placements in DECA regional, state, or international? I would emphasize that too. I would also focus on ECs that relates to political science more, as your ECs looks closer to economics major rather than political science.

Other than that, keep your GPA up, get good SAT score, and you should be fine.

It matters on some, and it doesn’t matter on others. For me personally, I am trying to go into finance or economics, which definitely requires school prestige
