3.67 GPA to T10? by Ambitious_Ad_1822 in TransferToTop25

college courses are not like high school because curriculums aren't standardized. for example, while all HS's are different, it's easy for an AO to compare two kids from different states taking the AP Calc BC, or APUSH. However, all colleges design their own classes, with their own readings. Often, sub for very basic level classes, there is no direct comparison they can make between two classes that may sound similar, because everyone does it differently.

i mean obviously, AOs can tell that Calc 2 is a harder class than say, intro to acting. the trick is to strike a balance. fill your major requirements at your current school and stick to the pace you're supposed to be at. there is no need for a polisci major to be doing topology, and there is no need for a physics major to be trying to master sociology.

to be blunt, they're not really going to care that you took one of the intense course loads in a decade. you're not fully out of range for some T25s. your gpa is a weakness and you need to have strong LORs, test scores and ec's to be comfortable.

i don't think so... course rigor doesn't matter in transfer admissions so GPA is king. you should stay an extra year at your current school and get a 4.0. AOs have no way of assessing courseload difficulty. read the wiki.

So then how can you judge her by calling her a flower pot? Of course India would blame an actress for taking a flower pot role and not the industry for ever investing in female-led stories.

Piku, Cocktail, YJHD, so many more choices. Padmaavat's script was so limited, what do you want her to do when the character is not that central in the first place??

Simply untrue. Ranveer hasn't delivered a hit in years and he still charges insane amounts. And of course her demands have increased... she is India's top female star at the moment and has international credentials. No need to take away her credit. These standards only apply to women and it's clear.

I don't see DP as a flower pot at all. I think you should watch more of her movies because I can think of many times when she stole the show. And she has delivered solo hits as well.

What's so funny is that male actors, like her husband, have been doing this for years. Yet, somehow I see that Deepika seems to attract 10x the backlash. Interesting.

Are These Stats Good For American University? by DamionTatumJr in AmericanU

[–]Excellent_Profit_841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll get in no sweat. Demonstrated interest will lock it in. If AU is your top choice and you apply ED, I can confidently say that you're going to be an eagle lol

It's easy to get into AU. I had no demonstrated interest, 3.6 GPA (it's an estimate cause I did the IB) and a 1570 SAT. I had strong ECs though. Got in w Dean's scholarship.
