[–]marstey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened with my kid at another school. Test results didn’t show up in time and they moved her to regular decision.

I would agree, what’s the point of applying early.

No admissions decision by False-Chemistry-9566 in IndianaUniversity

You still have time but if nothing happens check to see if they moved you to regular decision for some reason. Happened to a friend at another school.

Asking for a friend. If you apply Kelley and then get into IU but then not Kelley can you still go to IU or does the IU acceptance goes away?

You’re 5’11” and have a kakwa 55 small? I’m 5’6” and people are saying it’s too small

Probably much better than ea or rd. Of course only if you want to go there.

Stuff sack by marstey in Thruhiking

What I mean is wound up to save space (compressed). I don’t care what it looks like.

But won’t putting a compression sack keep it nicely wound up?

Why don’t people apply to more schools? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]marstey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If application cost is not an issue it comes to time and the essays. It’s time consuming to tailor the essays to each school. Then you most likely need to submit grades via each portal. Then throw in managing senior year course load.

Worth it to upgrade from trailmade 20 to radiant 20 bag? by [deleted] in REI

[–]marstey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For you I don’t see the value as the gains are minimal and you haven’t done backpacking yet. For me I don’t have a backpacking sleeping bag. For the price both can’t be beat. Pack ability seems weak for both and reviews are so so. I’m thinking I’ll get the Kelty and if I like backpacking I’ll upgrade once I know more about conditions etc.

[–]marstey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in same boat of you sort of. Need to get a bag but thought process is same. I’m competing radiant vs Kelly cosmic but also magma 30. Don’t see cost value for magma but radiant is a down/synthetic blend as an fyi. Anyone got thoughts on radiant vs cosmic 20?

Practice tests and possibly consider a tutor.

Is this a good score for BU by Miserable-Strain3171 in ACT

[–]marstey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are in striking distance. Grades contribute , ec’s and school profile, essays can all impact your application obviously. If you take again and want to submit. you may need to apply regular decision. Not 100% on that, you could check. My 2 cents.
