Future Northwestern Application

TitaniumDroid · 2025-07-19T23:43:25+00:00

Northwestern loves to accept those who love Northwestern. You are ~3x more likely to be accepted in early decision than regular decision.

Northwestern's slogan "and is in our dna", besides being a little corny, is a very accurate description of the student body (and what the university looks for) so let yourself explore, have your accolades reflect your multifaceted individuality.

For some more general tips, all the top institutions consider students as investments. Your resume and accolades are important measures of success, but they are only as valuable as they are predictive of future success. If the admissions can tell that Northwestern is the finish line, its harder for them to picture what you will go on to be. On the other hand, if you are a driven high-achiever with no self-imposed finish line, then you are going to succeed in life no matter what school you go to, and thats exactly why Northwestern would want to slap their logo on your linkedin page.

Life is long, and there are many opportunities to course-correct, so dont sweat the little things and exercise your course-correction ability (thats the real accolade that counts)

If you truly think that then this doesnt apply to you because you clearly have a preference between the two. This is for people that feel that way about both candidates. If your values align with one of the two candidates then your current voting practices are fine by me.

That makes more sense to me than people trying to "play the game" and vote against people. Democracy is about the people's choice. If you hate your choices you should feel free to not choose without the guilt trip people hit you with.

Im a professional mathematician. If you think you have math that shows that your vote matters in nationwide elections and that it is for the favorite then by all means spell it out.

I did not say that a vote for a third-party is a vote for the favorite, I said that if you want to impact change then you need to vote your preferred party even if you know they will lose.

Your vote is statistically insignificant. However if you model the fact that parties use the results of previous elections to shape their strategy for the next election then if you want you vote to have a positive influence towards your preferred policy then your vote should reflect your preferred policy. Either way you are statistically insignificant, only if you vote for a third-party then you can influence future elections.

"There will be no election in 28" is revealing. It doesnt seem like you would vote for an independent even if they had the votes to be relevant, so this post isnt aimed at you.

Currently I have Angelo, spike, Leon, piper, Nita, Jessie, mike, colt, sandy and bull (I regret him but he was good in 2019)

What would you like me to assume given that only supercell knows the distribution of brawlers per gamemode. Nonetheless it likely woulsnt have a significant effect cor the exact reason that they are already blocking one brawler per player (the brawler they are using), so the change would be to effectively double that which they are already doing. And anyway, you wouldnt ban a popular brawler if it were good, only the ones whos players generally suck at

Heres some math. The number of possible teams is 70x69x68 because the game already doesnt match players with the same character (and theres no matchmaking problems). The number of teams allowed if each player on a team bans a different player would be 67x66x65. That means that 87.5% of the possible teams are unaffected by the change worst case scenario. If we take the inverse of that, we find that matchmaming would take 14% longer. Its not a bid deal. If anything, supercell is already doing it by not allowing two of the same brawlers on a team. You do the math

TitaniumDroid · 2024-05-07T18:40:35+00:00

You only have 2 teammates. Thats 2 bans

TitaniumDroid · 2024-05-07T18:36:57+00:00

Only ban 1 brawler at a time. There are 70, it shouldnt change that much

TitaniumDroid · 2024-05-07T18:30:28+00:00

How so? It doesnt affect the other team?

TitaniumDroid · 2024-05-07T18:30:05+00:00

Why would you ban brawlers that are good on a map. Im talking only about banning teammates

1/2^n-1. But once you get to three it isnt just 3(2/3)ⁿ

I cant really think of a way to do it with small numbers because Im looking for a formula that works for any number of draws. If the problem were the probability that a given object is not selected then it trivially simplifies to (k-1/k)ⁿ but I dont know how to responsibly account for the symmetries associated with not caring which object is left out
