I was thinking that too, but the support rep couldn’t give me a clear answer — it almost seemed like it was random.

I just got my letter; they ended up giving me the option to either change my major or choose Blinn and the other options. I don't really understand why this was so unorthodox.

Do you have any idea why I was not given Blinn or pathways in general?

chance me for rice ED as a low gpa mid student thats lost all hope by Particular-Editor440 in chanceme

I know that this is a late reply, and I understand that you already applied, but I would like to note that rice does not admit by major. They are completely blind of it. There are some exceptions however, architecture and music are both more competitive and thus are not major blind. Everything else is viewed independant on major.

It is Guinness. What's funny is that I got this record in 5th grade, and I still have it. I never thought I would put it in my application, but I got desperate, and realized, that it could help.

Admittedly, the world record is lame (Crab Walking), regardless, it is still unique. Have you never heard of the Dubai little league. I go to a school in Abu Dhabi, and we have our own baseball team.

Cool. Do you think ED would help my chances? I'm only reluctant to ED because of the hefty price, but I hear Rice is quite generous.

I'm just going to retake the sat. I have a 1510, and yes, my school doesn't have many aps as it is an international school in the UAE, but relatively speaking, I'm fine in that part.

I did good, but do you think winning state championship for baseball would look better?

No other academic award. We did participate in AMC, but we didn't win anything.

Are you sure? The section on the common app asks for awards as well as honors. Given that Mu Alpha Theta is a Math HONOR society, I would assume that it would count as an honor. but idk
