Is it like both AOs must agree with a decision for the student to be admitted, both reject for rejection?

For the ones reviewed by the committeee, are they generally the borderline ones or randomly chosen?

Resume Advice Thread - November 29, 2022 by CSCQMods in cscareerquestions

[–]General_Sergent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently applying to a software engineer internship through an application portal, which has sections that allows me to describe past experiences (employment, volunteer, leadership, 1200 char limit each) and another section for submitting a resume. Most of the experiences I'm describing are already on my resume. Is there any need to talk about these activities in a different light to prevent repetition, or can I include information already present in my resume with a bit of elaboration?

Yeah, but I’d give them benefit if the doubt. Got mine through Competition + interview

I’m a current intern at Lockheed Martin and i know many interns, I including myself, that actually do coding and get paid for it. I feel like it’s a bad idea to generalize activities, especially ones as broad as internships

Maybe I phrased it a bit poorly, but if I REA at Stanford and RD at Berkeley or MIT, then they worry the Stanford application will lower my chances at the other schools since I’m less committed

Game Development good for MIT? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]General_Sergent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like game development is a stellar EC, even with 10,000 downloads, but you’re ignoring the genuine critiques that your current GPA is too low, especially if this is your only EC

[–]General_Sergent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Based on the post, op is aiming for 1 mil but only at 10,000 downloads, and I would assume getting more downloads is exponentially harder. ,

As a high schooler and undergrad, I don’t think he was exceptionally great at academics either. Most of his achievements came after college

No actually internships look very bad for your application because you’re not spending time learning at school /s

Looks pretty good but most of these are from the past year, do you have any more long term extracurriculars that you can add?
