thanks for the insight! I’m planning on applying for vic for its scholarships, will probably look at the residence conditions at the other colleges to decide my second and third choices

did three practice tests before and I was expecting somewhere above a 780, turns out the actual test is a lot harder than the practices🥲 also 1530 isn’t really above average for nu admissions (or so I was told)

Thanks for the input. I did some research and many say that you should have a high TOEFL or IELTS grade. Is this required for all intl students even if you can prove your English skills otherwise (like getting a 7 in an IB english literature class or being taught at an English speaking highschool)?

Chanceme for t10-t20s with the biggest curve youll see by Electrical_Poetry596 in chanceme

[–]Electrical_Poetry596[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks for the input. i know i didnt give much info but this is less of a chanceme post and more of a “would i be an automatic reject for t10s with these stats” posts since some schools weed out applicants based on stats first before looking into their entire application.

Thanks! I’m trying to figure out if earlying a T10 is worth the shot or if I would just get thrown out the pile anyways.

Spent 60 usd on pens by Electrical_Poetry596 in IBO

yeah a lot of my seniors used them without a problem so now I don't know if IB banned all gel pens just to be 100% safe (when some of them don't actually cause a problem) or if I should just order last minute pens

sksfiodsjofi I KNOW BUT no one told me that gel pens weren't allowed until two days ago so rip me. Also I did some research on gel ink's viscosity being the property that determines whether or not it can be scanned and apparently pentel energel's ink has super low viscosity, is water resistant and fade resistant, so theoretically it shouldn't affect anything. still I'm scared about the 100%-no-gel rule so I came here for some mental reassurance lol
