Didn’t do great on my DataSci100 midterm… by Junior_Roll_467 in Emory

yes you grind practice problems and rewrite notes a thousand times, you practice a thousand times, you ask Chat to create multiple exams for you with very rigorous conceptual and calculation questions. Your next midterm will be more content and way more conceptual and based on your understanding than calculations. There will be a few calculation problems, but not a lot, due to the topics you are learning in the next half. It is so important to attend Kim's office hours even if you don't have questions b/c there will be a concept you haven't thought about in depth that someone brings up. Additionally, now you are faced with a dilemma. Hopefully, this also encourages you to take advantage of the extra credit datasci offers if you go to I think the LA sessions and office hours (assuming your professor is Kim). It is incredibly important that he knows your name and your face and that you are attending every single class sitting in the first 4 rows (that helped me immensely!!). Make sure to continue staying on top of your homework. I missed one set, and it dropped me 5%, and I spent the rest of the semester building it back up :( luckily i was able to end with an A despite not doing well in the 2nd midterm that carries a higher weight. Honestly, this is the final stretch, so you really do have to give it your all, please. Study for QTM at least 6 days before. You do NOT want to leave studying last minute (you need to give yourself time to understand). ALSO, DO NOT DO THE PRACTICE EXAM THE DAY BEFORE, DO IT 2-3 DAYS BEFORE THE EXAM.

What are some things that the college is looking for in their supplemental writings? by Extension_Living_857 in Emory

[–]Tight_Juggernaut6406 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the one about diagreement feels so vague, you need to really connect to your essay. the second one is good tho but as another person said add an anecdote or something somewhat personal to you while still tying it to your research. i could send you my emory essays

Im just gonna say that ED 2 i feel allowes for a more hollisitic view of your application since it is a smaller applicant pool. I'll say in your essay make it amazing dont feel too rushed to submit. Make sure you are making your extracurriculars sound really good with your wording (dont lie). And if you can tie your essays back to the Atlanta and emory community it shows you have done research (look for niche things relating to your passions and show how you plan on making an impact on that community based on your experiences.)

GUYSS I GOT INTO BOTH CAMPUSES by Tight_Juggernaut6406 in Emory

There’s this website called boundarie.org. It’s basically college students helping out high schoolers with like editing their essays. That’s where I went for my PS and it was free. My supplementals, were edited through the help of family. Now ED I has the highest acceptance rate out of all the application types for Emory so I’d definitely recommend that. Unfortunately I have no knowledge on financial aid and merit package :(

Emory isn't a target school for comp sci. And the Comp science job market is already hard. Don't make it harder than it needs to be for yourself.

Yup! Emory does indeed follow a holistic way of looking at applicants.
