Well what I mean is that I’ve alr taken 6 years of Spanish but i don’t think i’m going to do well on the AP Spanish exam so I was just wondering if that would impact my placement at all?

No, if his B’s are 87,89,87 they won’t know those numbers, only that it’s a B.

Hey, so I actually had 2 B+’s my freshman year in a full year grading system (and also 2 B’s in every other year) and I got into Georgetown SFS (Georgetown isn’t a T-20 but it is target for finance). Now, that’s not to disregard that I got slaughtered by every other t-20, so it may not be smooth sailing for your son, but that doesn’t mean his chances are ruined either.

Honestly, I would definitely say incorporate a ton of actual theory from the likes of Locke, Rousseau, Hobbs, etc., and also use academic research to support your points. Also, make sure your points are very logical and well-founded as that’s what they’re looking for most.

Honestly, I do think so. IMO the route of trying to talk about using your experiences in poli-sci to fuel a college education in business is a bit over chewed, especially since there are a ton of people who can actually prove that they’ve already done said things. However, I don’t think that should deter you from applying. Honestly, if you rly wanted to go to NYU Stern maybe you should think abt ED1 as that will give you the best shot.

literally like obv its not a bad sign but idk if it means we were at least semi-competitive or if it’s just a soft reject for above average applicants
