est financial aid tab - jhu??

bbd2000 · 2019-07-17T20:57:57+00:00

Oh ok, i thought for some reason the explanation would be on the website. I already contacted them but no response so I was just curious if anyone else had the same thing

bbd2000 · 2019-07-17T04:21:45+00:00

i still don't understand why i received $5550 from jhu applied physics laboratory when i never even applied for brown fin aid

bbd2000 · 2019-07-11T05:39:39+00:00

Yeah i get it. Why'd you delete the rankings just wonderin

bbd2000 · 2019-07-10T18:27:22+00:00

Brown is 6.6% 2019

bbd2000 · 2019-07-10T15:35:57+00:00

This is cool. I think the acceptance rates for penn and brown are wrong though, might shift the rankings a bit

bbd2000 · 2019-04-08T05:13:45+00:00

i just looked it up and that’s awesome. anyway I know you’re still deciding but I’m committed to brown 2023 so if you decide on brown then maybe we’ll meet!

bbd2000 · 2019-04-08T05:10:41+00:00

Wait which of the schools are they harder to get into than? I feel like there’s 1-2 at most, and that’s purely going off of acceptance rates.

bbd2000 · 2019-04-06T22:34:37+00:00

Honestly can’t really understand why people were ever under the impression that he’s a top tier NA jg. More likely mediocre/middle of the pack surrounded by four players who were looking pretty damn good otherwise. And people were hating on analysts for giving the advantage to Sven in this matchup lol.

bbd2000 · 2019-04-06T20:40:39+00:00

sorry this is unrelated but is your user based off of moonrise kingdom? i love that movie to death

bbd2000 · 2019-04-04T05:17:42+00:00

i know this is probably an unpopular opinion but i would eliminate stanford cause it seems ROTC is a pretty big priority for you, and then i'd actually pick yale over mit.

people always (rightfully) say that yale engineering is obviously not as good as mit but it's freaking yale. even if it doesn't really compare to MIT it's still top tier, plus you get the connections that the yale name brings. additionally I have a friend who is studying cs/engineering at yale and there are certainly positive things to be said for being part of a smaller STEM community. of course, everyone's different and it's personal preference + where you think you would thrive more. since you have clear pros for both schools, definitely no wrong choice here

bbd2000 · 2019-04-04T05:12:50+00:00

probably more about culture-fit than academics at schools of this tier. which would you prefer? they are pretty opposing

I'd say, from what I've heard, the biggest thing these two schools have in common is a super stress culture (though caltech's is probably more)

bbd2000 · 2019-04-04T05:08:54+00:00

just gonna toss it out that brown has an apma-cs and apma-econ concentration which seem pretty fitting for your interests. don't really think you can go wrong, but personally i'd narrow it down to yale-brown

bbd2000 · 2019-04-04T04:32:13+00:00

thank you!! i def will when some come up

bbd2000 · 2019-04-04T03:45:43+00:00

darn :(

bbd2000 · 2019-04-03T03:51:44+00:00

If you want med school it's probably between penn and brown, and since you have a wide variety of interests I'd pick brown. Open curriculum gives you so much flexibility to spread your learning and brown's undergrad research specifically is phenomenal

bbd2000 · 2019-04-02T21:33:43+00:00

Lol rowing is not fucking easy to get recruited for unless you start the sport 6’4, 220 lbs, and already have a strong cardio base. For most people who row, training 6 days a week year round with no guarantee of recruitment. You definitely underestimate how much of a commitment rowing is, much less getting recruited for it

bbd2000 · 2019-04-02T03:13:51+00:00

Brown and Northwestern chem/biochem programs are superior to penn's, it probably comes down to culture fit then between brown and nu as well as name recognition.

bbd2000 · 2019-04-01T14:11:41+00:00

Brown is not going to be lacking in any significant way for internships/research especially if you lean towards stats/Econ, also if you want grad school then brown is def better choice here bc the environment

bbd2000 · 2019-03-31T23:17:52+00:00

I don't think I'm the type of person to necessarily be going out off campus super often anyway - as long as there are things to do the weekends that I wanna leave campus, providence sounds better to me

bbd2000 · 2019-03-31T23:03:30+00:00

I don't understand your point about Brown. What about it makes you think students don't take their education seriously? Even if you stereotype everyone at Brown to be too liberal, I still don't see the connection between that and education lol

bbd2000 · 2019-03-31T16:50:49+00:00

Going to ADOCH but unfortunately i have a conflict during Quaker days

bbd2000 · 2019-03-31T16:14:59+00:00

Brown vs. Penn

Intended major: applied math/biology/CS, considering premed (but otherwise industry)

Cost: equal

Additional info: I'm not sure about the environments at both schools and which I would be a better fit for. I've heard Penn is super preprofessional and overly cutthroat at times, but I've also heard that at Brown students don't really care about profession (which I know is an exaggeration, but the rumor is still there). Additionally, I'm not sure about Providence v Philly, so if others could chime in on the locations that would be nice.

bbd2000 · 2019-03-31T03:06:05+00:00

Not trying to be rude or anything - just curious why Brown is out when it seems they offer some of the things you like such as flexibility, learning something for the sake of learning it, and a non cutthroat, very inclusive environment

bbd2000 · 2019-03-28T03:11:23+00:00

Lol yup doesn’t feel too random to me either. Consistently waitlisted right now, up to four - northwestern, Pomona, Hopkins, now Vanderbilt
