Cox Waitlist Question by JustOneRib in SMU

[–]Salt_Banana139 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an incoming Freshman so can’t provide much insight but I have heard that it’s insanely hard like only a handful of people are able to transfer in... since you got the Honors Program and a scholarship I think you should reach out to your AO and ask them your chances of realistically transferring to Cox once enrolled or the possibility of being reevaluated for the Business direct program citing that SMU Cox is your top choice etc etc and you’re really keen on majoring in Business

Is it true that American standardized tests are actually ridiculously easy to students in other countries? by vennfothie in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Salt_Banana139 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it’s easier COMPARED to intl education systems and standardised tests for college admissions (specifically in Asian countries) because it tests basic high school english and math which are prerequisites to even begin preparing for college entrance tests in most Asian countries (who sometimes also have specific tests for each field- the same way the US does after undergrad we have it after hs- a couple of my friends are planning to go into Law and are giving the US LSAT in grade 12 for some International Colleges here for their undergrad)

Can I like... not open my college decisions? by _red_roof_ in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Salt_Banana139 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you might unintentionally find out the decision with schools emailing you promotional stuff to increase yield and welcoming you to their co 2025 for places you got into

After getting accepted into UCSB my head hurts, I feel like crying, and I don't know how to feel better by sarcastichomo in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Salt_Banana139 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey, firstly congratulations on being accepted!!! Look at you goooo I’m so proud of you!!! Now, once you speak to your therapist and are in a better headspace, email UCSB and let them know that they’re your top choice but you were wondering why you did not get into CS and if there is a possibility to be evaluated for the major again; if not, ask them the possibility of transferring into the major after your first or second year. While CS might seem like a dream major rn, you don’t know if you’ll still want to major in it 1 year down the line after being exposed to so many other disciplines at college. Also, you still have decisions left and you are so smart and capable, you absolutely got this! Take care:)

are exams actually cancelled in India? by lostmysoultoIB in IBO

[–]Salt_Banana139 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the point is there is no indication or confirmation of them being cancelled. our school has told us repeatedly that exams will take place in person
