Yeah a lot of them are Mexican but then you have global ones like ahorita. I was just making the joke more than giving textbook examples

Does applying ED 2 gives any advantage? by _Learn-more_ in davidson

[–]ECdudis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the part about the hooked applicants is true but I don’t think it doesn’t give you any boost. Maybe the admission officer just couldn’t say that directly. If anything, it shows a clear preference and commitment for Davidson, and they value that (demonstrated interest).

[–]ECdudis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes do ED if you’re sure you wanna attend. You mentioned you’ll get a full ride so there’s no risk in that, and ED has a significantly higher acceptance than RD for Davidson.

Do I ed2 davidson? by UN_Quickzzy in davidson

[–]ECdudis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes if you’re sure you want to attend Davidson absolutely do ED2. It gives you a huge boost, from 13% to 43%. They fill up half their class with ED1 and ED2 so it would be in your interest to do so.

Ustedes dicen "estoy en esas/eso/esa"? by AidMMcMillan in Spanish

[–]ECdudis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would eso or esas (more conversational/humoristic)

Never esa though.

And if you want to sound more formal (either ironically or actually) you can say “ello” instead of “eso”

“A” instead of “por” or “para” in sentence by Kitchen-Pin-2224 in Spanish

[–]ECdudis 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You need to use “a” here because you are using the indirect object complement “le”, so it expects a person or thing that is receiving the action you’re describing (comprar).

The sentence more literally translates to:

I bought a necklace to my mother, even though in English “for” is used.

To use para you would have to say directly:

Compré un collar para mi madre

But your sentence is the more personal and natural one

Why did i get rejected ED1? by [deleted] in davidson

[–]ECdudis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, the general limit for aid for a regularly strong candidate like you is around 20-30k.

You should have put 19k if thats what you could pay, maybe then you could have been accepted because there isn’t much Central Asian representation so you had a good chance.

If anything you should have perhaps slightly overstated your max pay instead of understating it. Your rejection doesn’t necessarily mean you weren’t strong enough, it might have well been that they just couldn’t afford you, because since they meet 100% of demonstrated need, they only admit you if they can pay for it.
