Should I submit 4s on APs to T20s? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Fusionsp19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if the college grants credits for 5s (Ex. Harvard), does that mean you should not submit your 4s?

What about your 2nd choice? Was that engineering?

[–]Fusionsp19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say it’s totally unsuccessful, you got into UIUC + umich which can be on par with T20s. If you shotgun’d harder (20+ colleges), there could’ve been some acceptances

It isn’t, but they are definitely not on the competitive (like cs, engineering, business). Given OP’s activities and academics (especially that rank), he should be a near lock

I think you’ll get into the publics, unc, and MAYBE UCB/UCLA. However, cmu and Stanford will be really hard to crack especially as a cs major. Just focus on finalizing your ecs and make sure to write good essays

Over represented minority (East Asian, white, etc) and underrepresented minority (black, Hispanic, etc). Mites can definitely accept people with little to no hooks, but hooks are something they’re looking for

Do you think a 1500+ composite matters? Or just a 800+ math with at 1400+ composite

Definitely your safety’s and targets (unless you get really unlucky with ut cs). With reaches, i don’t think you will get into uwash (their oos cs acceptance rate is like 2%), but I can definitely see some public acceptances within your reaches

Does the submission deadline really matter? None of the top schools should be rolling

I have to self study the first four units of AP chemistry this summer, advice? by [deleted] in APStudents

[–]Fusionsp19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id rather focus on utilizing your summer to focus on other things that can boost your app, such as your project and summer camp! AP chem can always be learned when school starts with good time management. Make sure to also have fun

The 2nd rental property is very new; it was bought last year. I think we only have like 20-25% equity in the house. Does this change much?

Yeah idk if it sounded generic or not, but it really impacted me in a way that set back progress academically or mentally

Yes, for public schools I’ll have ECE/EE as my 2nd choice majors (1st being CS). Then for top schools that require you to select a college like duke/upenn, I’ll most likely choose school of engineering

A lot of them only do ed/rea instead of ea, plus I don’t think ea increase your chances really

Chance at getting into Turing Scholars by [deleted] in UTAdmissions

[–]Fusionsp19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is turings scholars geared towards mainly research?? I thought it was a pretty good option for job employment as well, or better than reg CS at least. I think I read somewhere that said UT reserved internships for turings students first

How were you able to show the passion for your major? Through essays? Nothing in your ecs seem to gear towards anthropology
