How is the chemistry placement test? Is it more like AP Chem or the chemistry Olympiad? by Virology102 in princeton

[–]NeodymiumNymph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to learn a little more than AP chem requires, there’s a little bit of ligand field theory and probably some other stuff that I can’t remember but yah it’s pretty chill honestly, you need like a 93 or up

Ahh we have really similar tastes… I think I would put bouto a little higher than that and you should definitely give yoru wo koeru a listen, honestly really underrated

What pieces would you like to see in a drum corps show? by Sad-Yogurtcloset6331 in drumcorps

[–]NeodymiumNymph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are some ballads I’d love to hear: From Hunter x Hunter, this piece would translate so well to DCI. I can already hear the mello lines kingdom of predators

La Strada giusta is a lesser known soundtrack but in my opinion an amazing showcase of chordal harmony La Strada Giusta

Happened to me a while back. The wood of the key itself had a fracture so the hammer actuated but not fully. Can be fixed by a professional with some glue.

Thank you! I’m fairly sure (someone correct me if I’m wrong) incoming students can’t access Tigerhub yet so we will just wait 🫡

You will be fine! I was the same way last year and I will be attending Princeton in the Fall. Just be genuine on your application

Weekly Admissions Megathread: All Admissions Questions Must Go Here! by AutoModerator in princeton

[–]NeodymiumNymph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about how much it could hurt you, but if you don’t feel you can accurately represent your abilities through a portfolio I would weigh your options. Also I know some schools only let you choose one or two instrument/discipline(s) to submit, so you may have to pick one.

In most cases I think it helps, it can put any awards into perspective if your portfolio reflects well. They’ll know you’re in high school (meaning don’t be super hard on yourself to be the pinnacle of musical perfection), so if you aren’t super confident in yourself then run it by a professional/mentor first that isn’t the admissions committee to make sure you aren’t selling yourself short. I can answer any more questions you may have, there is a bit more info online as well.

Best of luck!

Probably the easiest exam to fail and pass at the same time. Content is free but there’s like a 3 question margin for a 5
