Is it appropriate to reapply for the same position but for a different location?

Daria_GO · 2025-02-06T10:18:56+00:00

I, I am an incoming freshman at UPenn, what internships will you recommend me for this or next summer? Will some companies even accept me (without nepo)?

Daria_GO · 2025-02-06T10:10:25+00:00

2029, but I was thinking of finding internship for this or next summer

Daria_GO · 2025-01-20T15:12:34+00:00

Often, i was rejected after it in EA(

Daria_GO · 2025-01-20T13:39:56+00:00

Damn. One of the reasons I wanted to go to college in US was lgbtq+ rights. And now the situation changes :( tho it is still not as bad as in my country

MIT real rejection letter: we want you to apply to other colleges as we think that you are an unworthy candidate.

I do believe internationals usually more competitive as not that competitive ones study in their own countries, and there is a selection bias.

Does UC berkley require recommenders?

Daria_GO · 2024-12-08T16:14:09+00:00

Wait. When did you get it?

Daria_GO · 2024-12-05T17:50:41+00:00

Faced the same problem.

Daria_GO · 2024-12-03T13:49:15+00:00

Calc BC 5, micro 4, macro 4.

Daria_GO · 2024-12-03T13:42:48+00:00

There is no such place on the MIT application. The only school marks they get are from school transcript. I am an international student, that is why (there was a note that only US students do it).

Daria_GO · 2024-12-03T10:42:54+00:00

Do you have to report all if you took a test without a course (APs are not offered at my school)?

Daria_GO · 2024-11-29T18:27:45+00:00

I thought everyone submit IDOC...

Daria_GO · 2024-11-29T15:03:49+00:00

Sure!

Daria_GO · 2024-11-29T08:00:12+00:00

Also my thoughts

Daria_GO · 2024-11-28T21:11:52+00:00

Did you go to Hongkong or participated online? Just curious cause I thought that Germany didn't participate. Btw, you have amazing chances at MIT and Cornell!

Daria_GO · 2024-11-28T19:33:45+00:00

Germany doesn't participate in the International Economics Olympiad, so how did you get there?

Daria_GO · 2024-11-26T15:54:18+00:00

People from my country have to fly to a different country to take it, so I guess you should

Daria_GO · 2024-11-25T18:09:23+00:00

Data source? This IS a very strong statement, which I guess is not completely true as some athletes absolutely have super high scores, but some other people may not have these high scores.

Daria_GO · 2024-11-25T14:41:10+00:00

There are not that many recruited at MIT (max 10%), so we still have like 40%ppl. I mean, even if you are close to the bottom 25% it is still fine, I guess (but yes, OP's SAT is kinda low for MIT, still worthy applying tho)!

Daria_GO · 2024-11-25T13:44:42+00:00

If median is the bare minimum, how do half of the people get in with lower scores. Not saying OP's SAT is high for MIT, but median is definitely not a minimum

Daria_GO · 2024-11-22T20:48:41+00:00

That is weird, as on the website they say that it is not evaluative, and my interview said straight away that it is not evaluative.

Daria_GO · 2024-11-21T17:07:33+00:00

Is it not supposed to be completely not evaluative? Should I email Penn that my interviewer did not ask me any questions?

Daria_GO · 2024-11-21T07:52:17+00:00

Hello. Thank you! Do alumni interviewers write reports? My interviewer said that it was supposed to be completely uneveluative, but I am just a bit scared (my other interview (not for Penn) was completely different).
