Cornell University (2023-2024)

[ionic belfry]

Just funny

[prime oxide]

Apparently someone applied test optional w a 1580 😭

[solar vortex]

whats wrong with that

[prime oxide]

Uhhh 1580 is rly good

[solar vortex]

oh

bruh

[prime oxide]

My fault

Unclear

[solar vortex]

u good

but bruh

what was that guy thinking

[prime oxide]

🤷‍♂️

Got in so it was fine but still

[solar vortex]

at least it worked out at the end

if that was me and i got rejected

i would be kicking myself until i die

[outer jolt]

bullshit

[prime abyss]

bro wanted a 1600 😭

[lavish marlin]

what a terrible score

[limpid laurel]

no need to go to to cornell

very tolerant of lower scores fr

[outer jolt]

dyson is test blind anyways

[lament snow]

1580,. ., ,. .,.,., . ,,. ,absolute clown, .. ., ancestors grimace, l, .

[prime oxide]

Yeah it’s feel awful

[prime oxide]

Ed so they had to :(

[prime oxide]

Yeah like 1610 is minimum acceptable tbh

[fathom dirge]

bro why us essays have to be the most annoying thing

anyone have any good tips for cornell eng's "why us" essay

so far I got project teams, but that's it

[prime oxide]

Project tea - oh

lol

[lavish marlin]

talk about the clubs with coding that you really like

[fathom dirge]

alright

[solar vortex]

same bro same

[fathom dirge]

i don't even know why im doing apps rn 😭

i got into my target school

[ionic belfry]

Would you happily go there

[fathom dirge]

yes

[limpid laurel]

so proud of u dude

huge congrats on getting in

you’ll love it there

[ionic belfry]

Then you’re chilling

[manic ether]

i wrote like a third academics third proj teams third entrepreneurship/sharing findings with partners

[fathom dirge]

is it easier to double major within cornell engineering?

compared to colleges in general

i'm wondering if I could talk about that in my essay

[ionic belfry]

CAS>cals/engineering/brooks>the others

It’s p easy just bc there are a good amt of double majors

[fathom dirge]

i see

is there a named program for this?

[weak valve]

Uh

No

Its not easy to double major in engineeringg

Practically the only completable one is ece and cs or like smth and cs

Cheme and bme and bio eng are impossible to double from

[fathom dirge]

yeah

i was thinking ECE and compsci

[ionic belfry]

Yeah I think they’re CS that’s why I said that

[fathom dirge]

since im writing my supp on ECE

[weak valve]

Will still be hard

[ionic belfry]

True

But at least you can 😭

[weak valve]

And lowkey limiting bc the electives will be takrn by the ece reqs

But yeah

[manic ether]

idk if my supp is good or not

it covers lots of things but bc of that its not at a very deepish level

kinda just define -> explain a bit of benefits -> how i want to use it

[prime oxide]

It’s not me 😭

[weak valve]

J know if u double major theres likely little to no room for a minor

Or any other exploration

[fathom dirge]

true

im gonna move on to academics now

[manic ether]

might stack on EE

if i go

but at the same time i might want to take some buisness courses for eship stuff

[fathom dirge]

probably do it like others, so namedrop class & professor in a sub-field

[weak valve]

Youd prolly have to minor then

Not double

[manic ether]

yeah i didnt name drop people because of work cound shit

[fathom dirge]

wdym?

[manic ether]

im at my word count

[fathom dirge]

is it bad to namedrop?

[manic ether]

no its good

[fathom dirge]

ohh

[manic ether]

i just didnt do it

[fathom dirge]

ahh oka

[manic ether]

because i explained other stuff

[fathom dirge]

makes sense

[glad siren]

this gotta be a joke

[ionic belfry]

Make sure to explain who they are when you name drop

[manic ether]

did i screw up

didnt submit but

i dont want to rewrite it

[fathom dirge]

is there a ECE catalog?

[ionic belfry]

Of professors?

[fathom dirge]

like, a list of all ECE classes with descriptions

[ionic belfry]

Course roster

[fathom dirge]

ahh okaay

[limpid laurel]

riley

[ionic belfry]

Just filter by ECE

[ionic belfry]

Yes

[limpid laurel]

did you know: it’s free to touch grass

[ionic belfry]

I have been

Im just killing time before a coffee chat lmao

[limpid laurel]

good luck dude

which one is it

[ionic belfry]

Nothing too scary

Pres of the top biz frat

[manic ether]

yeah my essay talks about a lot of things but not a whole lot of detail

[limpid laurel]

ΔΣΠ?

or ΑΖ?

ΡΧΘ?

ΑΚΨ?

[ionic belfry]

Ugh I don’t wanna decode that

PGN

PGN/AKPSi are top here

Dsp is close

[limpid laurel]

that can’t be true

DSP is normally top everywhere

[limpid laurel]

learn to ur gonna be doing memorization soon bae

learn ur alphabet

[ionic belfry]

Dsp is top 3 but usually people put pgn and AKPSi first

Pgn and akpsi don’t let freshmen rush first semester

[ionic belfry]

So it seems more exclusive

And dsp hazes a lot

[limpid laurel]

ΦΓΝ has a p mediocre reputation nationwide

[ionic belfry]

Ik the sororities gimme some time for biz frats

[limpid laurel]

ΔΣΡ is famous and ΑΚΨ is p good too

[limpid laurel]

🙄

[ionic belfry]

Yeah I like both

[manic ether]

screw it ig my essay is fine

[ionic belfry]

Pgn rush is a week before so I’m starting there

[limpid laurel]

newest member of ΚΑΘ

[ionic belfry]

11 coffee chats for them

The others haven’t released the forms yet

I have a referral for pgn too

[limpid laurel]

ΚΑΘ, ΑΔΠ, ΔΔΔ, ΔΓ, ΑΦ, ΚΚΓ, ΑΧΩ

who am i missing

[ionic belfry]

Sororities?

Lemme check

[limpid laurel]

yes

i’m just typing for fun atp

[ionic belfry]

Aephi and sdt

We have these

[limpid laurel]

never heard of alpha xi delta and kappa delta ngl

[ionic belfry]

both lower mid

Girls seem nice tho

[limpid laurel]

my sorority knowledge hella bad tho bc like why would i care

[chrome nova]

why do u guys haev a club for sorcery

[limpid laurel]

yes that’s for sorcery

well read child

[chrome nova]

i did

i dont trust it

[limpid laurel]

they do magic

[ionic belfry]

Bae 😭

[chrome nova]

u cant tell me with all those symbols it just a sorority and frat

[ionic belfry]

Those r just the sororities

[limpid laurel]

whatever type of magic pumps out those deltas god damn it works

[ionic belfry]

Abhi what’s ur fav at usc

[limpid laurel]

i don’t have an affiliation for any

[ionic belfry]

Im trying to be open minded but i rly liked chi omega and aephi when i met them

[limpid laurel]

chi omega is different from axo right

[ionic belfry]

No it’s the same

[limpid laurel]

i have to stay open minded in order to rush fairly

[ionic belfry]

Wdym

Ur a frat guy

[limpid laurel]

no i swear they’re different

[limpid laurel]

frats have relations and affiliations

[ionic belfry]

We have alpha chi omega

I think chi omega exists at other places

[ionic belfry]

Yuh

[limpid laurel]

chi omega is also a different one lol it’s badly named

[ionic belfry]

Ik tri delt is affiliated with this frat I rly like

But honestly idek what sororities I like they all seem cool

[limpid laurel]

@ usc i have these options
ΚΣ, ΚΑ, ΤΚΕ, ΠΚΑ, ΣΝ, ΧΦ, ΣΧ, ΖΒΤ, ΒΘΠ, ΣΑΕ, ΔΤΔ, ΦΣΚ, ΦΔΘ

forgetting who i’m missing

[ionic belfry]

ZBTT

best name

[limpid laurel]

oh i missed ΛΧΑ

[ionic belfry]

When’s rush for you

[limpid laurel]

oh and ΣΑΜ

[limpid laurel]

13-15

is rush visit

week of 15th is rush week

[chrome nova]

what the fuck do these mean

what is

what is this

[ionic belfry]

THATS IT?

No fair

[limpid laurel]

these are names

[ionic belfry]

10-21 for us

[limpid laurel]

well frat rush is the easiest part of the process…

[ionic belfry]

Is hazing not during rush?

[manic ether]

is it 100% recommeneded to do name drops of profs

[limpid laurel]

very little i’m afraid

[ionic belfry]

Ohh rly?

So you get into a frat and then it happens?

[limpid laurel]

most stuff happens far later

[ionic belfry]

I assumed it was to weed out possible pledges

[manic ether]

i have an indirect name drop to a class, not by name but its topic and related it to smth i did

[ionic belfry]

No you don’t need to

[limpid laurel]

well once ur given a bid shit gets worse yeah lol

pledge sem

[ionic belfry]

OHH ok

That makes sense

[limpid laurel]

nah they give bids out based on vibe then very few get weeded

[ionic belfry]

Idk why I thought it was during rush

[limpid laurel]

not for guys nah

[ionic belfry]

How do you narrow down that many frats in 3 days?

[limpid laurel]

u don’t it’s over a week

and

they narrow u down also based on dirty

dirty events and like rush parties are hella common in frat rush

[ionic belfry]

U said 13-15

[ionic belfry]

Ohh damn

So you can get a bid but get cut after?

[limpid laurel]

nah 13-15 is just tours

original tours

[limpid laurel]

yeah more often it’s guys choosing to drop bc they don’t have the time

[ionic belfry]

Ah

What frat is will farallel kid in

[ionic hearth]

greek life discussion is CRAZY

[lavish marlin]

i don't like symbols

[lament snow]

waiting for epsilon delta frat

[ionic belfry]

Me too

[indigo notch]

would u guys say the first or second supplemental essay is more important for admission?

[manic ether]

all of them

[ionic hearth]

mfw the Riemann zeta frat 😳

[lament snow]

unfort riemann has not yet been inducted into the greek alphabet

soon™️

[manic ether]

should the any person any study prompt have things specific to cornell

[wind imp]

I just re use my community essay

The 2nd prompt is more of a why us

[ionic belfry]

@limpid laurel

It was chill

[indigo notch]

are cornell project teams available to students in arts and sciences or only engineering?

[feral mortar]

I finished the first Cornell supplement

Does anyone want to review it?

[ionic belfry]

Anyone

[indigo notch]

but why does every link when i search up the project teams say engineering college students

[ionic belfry]

It’s from the engineering school but anyone can do them or at least most

THERES a lot of biz kids that do them

[indigo notch]

do you know anyone in the cs or stats classes that can describe what the class environment and activities are like?

[ionic belfry]

I can ask my friends if you have specific questions

Generally large classes, eyeclickers, smaller discussions

[indigo notch]

what is eyeclicker

[ionic belfry]

It’s how you participate in big classes

You kinda click a remote to submit an answer to problems in the lecture

And TA’s record who participated fully

[feral mortar]

Hey does anyone want to review my Cornell supplement?

[chrome nova]

i can

[manic ether]

@chrome nova did you write about cornell in the erza supplement

if so was it like a lot or

[chrome nova]

yes

its like

75 words

[manic ether]

bout what

like how you can benefit them or smth?

nah screw this imma refine it tomorrow

gonna work on cmu

[wild spoke]

cam i

[molten hull]

random question but are there any supermarkets in Ithaca

[wild spoke]

i think theres one costco

[weak valve]

Yeah

[weak valve]

No there isnt

[weak valve]

Wegmans

And rens matt

Mart

And aldi

Targe

T

[wild spoke]

r ithicca ppl chill?

or ithaca

[weak valve]

Personally the locals scare me

But other ppl say yeah

[wild spoke]

how come r they like very rightist

[weak valve]

Um idfk i dont walk arnd asking ppls political opinions

They just look weird

[wild spoke]

but like the vibe tho

ah

[weak valve]

And act very upstate

[wild spoke]

im not from ny so idk what that means

[weak valve]

In a not southern hospitality way

Its like farmers but theyre not southern at all

😭

[wild spoke]

so in ny its the other way around

[weak valve]

Huh

[wild spoke]

north is conservative and south is chill

[weak valve]

Tompkins is blue

Bc of cornell

[wild spoke]

oh ok

[weak valve]

But yeah majority of upstate is red

Political opinion isnt like

A personality trait tho

You should unlearn that stereotype

😭

[wild spoke]

bro mb

[limpid laurel]

generality anywhere near colleges tends to be blue no?

[weak valve]

Some colleges r red

Im sure lots are

[manic ether]

no costco

😥

might have to reconsider this guys

[wild spoke]

wait does cornell have a gym

[limpid laurel]

yeah but in general most colleges lean blue

i’m p sure cornell does too right

post secondary education tends to be very progressive

as is covered in ben shapiro book

[weak valve]

Yeah

[limpid laurel]

!!!

[weak valve]

There are like 3-4 on campus

[manic ether]

what college leans red anyways

[weak valve]

And a planet fitness nearby

[manic ether]

like byu or smth?

[weak valve]

Lets not talk abt politics in server

[wild spoke]

🌽 🔥

[weak valve]

Its against the tulez

[weak valve]

You said all

I was answering ur wuestu

Wuedoton

Qiodxitn

Question

[limpid laurel]

not gonna continue convo on this but u can think of the more religiously affiliated ones

[limpid laurel]

3 tries to spell it

not bad jae you’re getting quite good at spelling

[weak valve]

Thank you

[manic ether]

fair

alr well i got my engineering supps fully done

gonna get any supp completed tomorrow to submit on the weekend

yall think its a good idea to bring my skateboard to campus

[weak valve]

Sure

[manic ether]

like easy storage and transport

besides when its like snowing n stuff

[weak valve]

Every dorm building has a bike area

U could store it there

Or in ur room

Is prolly a better idea

[weak valve]

Or most do

[manic ether]

during classes id probs fit it in my backpack or something

idk that sounds like a bad idea nvm

[weak valve]

Thats not abt cornell

Thats abt ur choice of backpack

😭

[manic ether]

but its pretty easy to carry

[weak valve]

Cool

Lots of ppl have skateboards

[manic ether]

yeah i wasnt talking about cornell at that point

anyways i will make the cornfield soon‼️

[wind imp]

@weak valve are the interviews rlly optional

like its not evaluative at all

[manic ether]

yeah

dw

[wind imp]

alr cool beans

[weak valve]

Yeah unless ur AAP

[wind imp]

AAP?

[weak valve]

Architexture

[wind imp]

@thorny violet how did the calculus go without the canvas page 😨

[thorny violet]

I didn't get to work so I went to my friend's house and hung out with friends, hopefully the portal will fix or my friend will find her notes and be able to send them to me...

[ionic hearth]

😔

At least you had fun though!

[thorny violet]

Yeah, but I really need to start now or I'm thoroughly screwed

[ionic hearth]

if you ever need calculus notes

[thorny violet]

Thank you JP.....

[thorny violet]

Actually, could you send them to me? Then I could at least do practice

[ionic hearth]

coming right up

Wait do u want filled out versions or blank versions @thorny violet

[thorny violet]

Both if that's not too much of a bother so I can fill out the notes and get the concepts in my head

[ionic hearth]

epic

just a warning the filled notes might not be 100% right because it's me doing it in class

also ill dm in case i wrote something doxxable on them

[thorny violet]

Got it!!

Thank you so much!!

[timber pagoda]

cornelians helping cornelians fr fr

on top

[glad siren]

lmao

why yall studying after getting in

[ionic hearth]

I have to self study bio, write an entire final draft of a research paper, study for physics and stats, and do some associated coding stuff 😭😭

[prime oxide]

That’s so true

[ashen finch]

where can i put my awards in

[weak valve]

commonapp?

[ashen finch]

ya

[ashen finch]

like i see an option of honors in education but that asks for academic acheivement only , my award is football related

should i just put it in the activity list?

[weak valve]

no

theres an honors section

that leets u lst 5

in the commonapp section

[ashen finch]

ya i saw that but in the section it says this

Do you wish to report any honors related to your academic achievements beginning with the ninth grade or international equivalent?*

its not an academic achievement though?

[weak valve]

uh

no

[ashen finch]

[ashen finch]

so should i just include that i won an award in the activitiy list

[weak valve]

oh shit it says that???

i put all my swim shit there

LMAO

[ashen finch]

saved your ass

ya check

it clearly says that haha

[weak valve]

no i alrdy

appolied

im co2027

[ionic belfry]

Maybe it’s diff now

[weak valve]

nah

it said that

[ionic belfry]

I did non academic stuff too

[ashen finch]

[weak valve]

mine was like all athletics

🤷‍♀️

ok

[ashen finch]

lmao

[weak valve]

let me reblock shit

🙄

i think a lot of ppl put sports stuff there

theres not many other achievements to list

[ionic belfry]

I did mostly debate stuff

[ashen finch]

idk i mean because its clearly mentioned academic ill just say no and put it in the activity list or add'll info

[weak valve]

i would still use the space

i didnt have room in my EC desc

it allowed me to specify the name of the award

[ashen finch]

hmm lmao im confused now

[weak valve]

technically it is related to ur academic achievements 🙄

just extracurricularly

[ashen finch]

hmm ya ahhh fuck it most people have done it right i was thinking maybe adding it to add'll info

[outer jolt]

No one actually does only academic stuff

Put your most impressive awards/honors

[hybrid temple]

How does the winter term work?

Is it just remedial/extra credit or smth more

[weak valve]

you can take up to 3 credits

async or online zoom

1.7k ish per credit is the cost

[ionic belfry]

Midnight walks

[wild spoke]

How do you check your common app stuff after submitting?

[finite lava]

Nice stats, but I think overwatch highschool national champs, radiant, t500 in overwatch, robotics state finalist, and finalist in regional robotics is better

[finite lava]

It does?

[weak valve]

idk you wouldnt need it anyways

pizza and gaming 24/7

[finite lava]

anyone here kind enough to read my essays

[solar vortex]

does my why engineering essay have to talk about cybersecurity if one of my major ECs is hacking

[lavish marlin]

lowkey all i put was high honor roll and latin exam silver medal (which so many ppl get) so my awards section was barren 😭

[outer jolt]

Lmao

Awards are least important anyways

[weak valve]

it doesnt have to talk abt anythig

[solar vortex]

wdym

[weak valve]

ur not required to talk abt anything

like

u dont HAVE to

talk abt anythign

talk abt what u want

[solar vortex]

but will it be disadvantageous if i dont talk about cybersecurity at cornell?

[weak valve]

no

[solar vortex]

ight i dont have to rewrite a chunk of my essay

ty

[lavish marlin]

Dyson is such a 🥶 name

[ionic belfry]

It’s a guy 😭

[weak valve]

There are worse names

[lavish marlin]

wdym, i meant the Dyson School of something

[lavish marlin]

itsn ot tht bad 😭

[weak valve]

Oh i thought u were saying its bad

[lavish marlin]

I meant 🥶 as in “Dyson is a cold/badass name 😳”

[ionic belfry]

Named after a guy

[lavish marlin]

oh i see

[ionic belfry]

Same with most schools at Cornell

[ionic belfry]

💀

im not hopeful

[solar vortex]

lmao

[lavish marlin]

My greatest fear is if I end up becooming the CEO of a succesful company, and then people start reading the messages I sent on discord between 2020-2023

[lament snow]

mfs online spamming "skibidi toilet" like it's anything other than their ninth-to-last braincell's cry for help

💀

[lament snow]

if people found my discord messages

[ionic belfry]

If you’re rich, just quiet them

[solar vortex]

i should put this in my cornell essay

[weak valve]

Gen alpha scary

They lack social anxiety

[lavish marlin]

where is gen beta

The co2030 kids from my hs

Are fucking geniuses

Im scared

😭

[solar vortex]

theyre already in hs?

[ionic belfry]

Middle school

For gen alpha

[lavish marlin]

yeah some 7th grader at my school got 1st place on the AMC 10 at my school

[solar vortex]

what

[lavish marlin]

and beat out like the entire 9th and 10th grade 😭

[lavish marlin]

hes in pre-calc rn 😭

[solar vortex]

hes still in 7th grade?

[lavish marlin]

yes...

good thing im not in his cycle

[solar vortex]

god help us

[ionic belfry]

Average mit kid

[solar vortex]

perhaps there is hope for this world

if we have more kids like that

[hybrid temple]

You kinda were in his cycle . You just don’t know the guys like him that also applied this year 😂

[lavish marlin]

true

but i scrapped through 😎

[weak valve]

co2030 is sophomore rn

[solar vortex]

im not gonna 😭

[weak valve]

idk if theyre gen alpha

but they scare me.

[solar vortex]

we're getting old

[lavish marlin]

the skibidi toilet kids are rising

[shell prairie]

the ones in my school are watching certain videos in the middle of pe class

💀

[solar vortex]

ok maybe there isnt hope for this world

[ionic hearth]

hi

[ionic hearth]

there isn't

after i graduate from cornell im gonna move to northern california and make a cat farm and live out my days in solitude until nuclear war caused by the skibidi generation destroys us all

[chrome nova]

u could jsut use ur degree to kill all of them or smth

[thorny violet]

Have a little hope everyone?

[prime oxide]

Some 7th grader (last year) got into usjmo from my region 😭

[ionic hearth]

i like silly kitites 😔

[chrome nova]

uh no

[indigo notch]

if im really interested in the bowers college, is it ok if i write all about it in the long arts and sciences supplement essay? The bowers college is a combination of parts of the AS engineering and agriculture life sciences colleges

but not an option itself on common app

[fervent trail]

do we have data for the class of 27?

[ionic belfry]

Yuh

[fervent trail]

can you link it to me plz

[ionic belfry]

What type of data are you looking for

Acceptance rates? Class profile?

[fervent trail]

average sat scores

[manic ether]

cornell CDS dont have avg gpa is there any place to find it

[ionic belfry]

http://irp.dpb.cornell.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Profile2021-first-year.pdf

Most recent class profile is class of 2025

[manic ether]

shit

[fervent trail]

yea i saw dat,

[ionic belfry]

1510 was 50th percentile

[manic ether]

if i get waitlisted its joever

[ionic belfry]

Last year was like 200

[manic ether]

idt i can even clutch it tbh

we trying though

[solar vortex]

4000/58000 is crazy

[manic ether]

normal for ivies

[ionic belfry]

Actually a lot better

362 last year

[lavish marlin]

21% ED rate wow…

[solar vortex]

may the cornell gods be with me

[lavish marlin]

Cornel really dropped this year

[lavish marlin]

Me 🤩

[ionic belfry]

I think it started going down in 2026 or 2027

They just officially said it this year

[manic ether]

went down on a much faster scale though

[lavish marlin]

Yeah

Almost chopped in half

[manic ether]

i just got a giant feeling of dread about here now

i got too confident

[ionic belfry]

1700/9500 ed last year

[manic ether]

18%

[lavish marlin]

It was approximately 13% this year

So 5% drop

[ionic belfry]

So abt 18% in 2027

Yeah def went down

[solar vortex]

wow

[manic ether]

my original plan was to apply for no regrets

i should stick to that

[ionic belfry]

Rd was 3300/58000

Or abt like 6%

yall are dashing my hopes rn

[lavish marlin]

LMFAO

[manic ether]

i shouldnt have hope

[lavish marlin]

Cornell gonna be T10 in US news this year 🥷

[chrome nova]

Same

[lavish marlin]

(Not copium)

[manic ether]

theres no point

[ionic belfry]

That would be cool

[manic ether]

99.99% im not going here

[ionic belfry]

Abt 400 off waitlist isn’t too bad tbf

[manic ether]

ive cooked on my essays though

so

[solar vortex]

yea but rejection

[chrome nova]

I cooked but I’m getting rejected so

[manic ether]

im a lock, just locked out

[chrome nova]

I was on fire for those essays and I’m gonna be on fire when u get rejected

[ionic belfry]

Have some faith

[chrome nova]

Uh no

[ionic belfry]

But Cornell is hard so getting waitlisted or rejected doesn’t mean you suck

[manic ether]

theres a fine line between faith and delusion

[ionic belfry]

Yeah ik lmao always expect the least and be surprised if stuff works imo

[manic ether]

yeah i should be doing that

writing essays got me hope

[chrome nova]

Same lmao

[manic ether]

gatech ea was similar to cornell ed rates

[chrome nova]

College isn’t for me

[manic ether]

nothings worth it

we will all spend our days slaving for big companies anyways

[solar vortex]

true we're all gonna die at the end

and that

[chrome nova]

College is a sham and we don’t need it

Let’s start a business guys fuxk it

[solar vortex]

follow in walter whites footsteps

or whoever

[manic ether]

is there realistically a point to anything though

[solar vortex]

depends on how u look at it ig

isnt that one of the main questions of philosophy

[lavish marlin]

I’m starting one in 2040 in shaa allah 🙏

[solar vortex]

mashallah hire us

[chrome nova]

Nah start one know and let me do nothign but claim the profits

[lavish marlin]

Indeed I shall

[chrome nova]

Mf no I’m not slaving for him

He’s gotta start it with us

[lavish marlin]

You can have some of the stock

[chrome nova]

This is a team thing tf

[solar vortex]

true true

[chrome nova]

W

[lavish marlin]

As long as you propagandize for us

That’s all you have to do

[chrome nova]

Alwyas

[solar vortex]

ez

well send rich ppl to mars to gain profit

make earth a shithole

[lavish marlin]

🤩

[solar vortex]

the rich will pay so much to leave

bruh with these ideas i should go to wharton or smth

[lavish marlin]

Once all the rich people leave Earth, we can trap them on mars with a “round trip” that doesn’t come back and then forcibly juice them for money for a return trip 😈

Wharton would like this idea yeah

[lavish marlin]

Give up all your riches or you won’t be seeing your family

[solar vortex]

screw penn engineering im writing a why wharton essay

[manic ether]

then the SDF forms

[chilly tree]

just started working on supplementals

is it over for me?

why does agriculture school have so many supplementals OHHHHMYGOD

[ionic belfry]

CALS crazy

[prime oxide]

Is this confirmed?

[lavish marlin]

According to my sources yeah

[prime oxide]

What are said sources

[lavish marlin]

Uh 🙄 just trust me on this one

[prime oxide]

Ok

Skeptical still but sure

[lavish marlin]

Can’t leak the messenger yk

[prime oxide]

Was it a reliable source

Or a rumor

[solar vortex]

rd is gonna be a bloodbath

[lavish marlin]

Yep. Extremely reliable

[prime oxide]

It could be higher

[solar vortex]

wdym

[prime oxide]

Well Ed is lower than normal

[solar vortex]

the acceptance rate?

[prime oxide]

They have same number of spots

Thus rd should be slightly higher

[lavish marlin]

My prediction for RD is 6-9% which is a pretty big range

[solar vortex]

true but i feel like cracked ppl that got deferred are in rd

but everyone else is probably still cracked

so im fucked either way

lmao

😭

[chilly tree]

can i say my family owns an agricultural entity if my grandparents were farmers

[prime oxide]

Everyone thinks everyone else is cracked 😭

[solar vortex]

are they not

[chilly tree]

but they sold it and moved to america👩‍🦲

[solar vortex]

my ecs are ass

[prime oxide]

And people still get in

[manic ether]

my prediction for rd is lower

or the same

[lavish marlin]

1%

FTW

Does any college have 1%

[manic ether]

honestly im screwed regardless i should have never had any hope to go here

it could either go to like 3-4% or like 9-10% depending on how many people decided to apply after the news broke

[prime oxide]

Isn’t IIT like .5%?

Not America tho

[lavish marlin]

No clue, but maybe

[lavish marlin]

3-4% would be wild

[manic ether]

more people will probably apply

[prime oxide]

I’d love to have an acceptance rate lower than Harvard/mit, make myself feel better in a completely artificial and undeserved way

[solar vortex]

like 0.2 to 0.5%

[prime oxide]

Geez

[solar vortex]

the indians have it tough

theyre currciulum for engineering is hell

and the tests are hell

[ionic belfry]

Dyson is 3% which is the lowest

[solar vortex]

and everyones taking them

[ionic belfry]

IIT is the lowest for any uni tho

[manic ether]

lets go illinois tech

[prime oxide]

So true

[ionic belfry]

Bc it’s not holistic and everything depends on one test

[solar vortex]

most selective uni, better than mit

[solar vortex]

id be shitting myself in that testing room

[lavish marlin]

Weill Cornell Medical Center is so cool

[lavish marlin]

That’s true yah

[lavish marlin]

Oh damn

[raw basin]

IM STILL MAD ABT THE FUCKING ED SHIT

LIKE

SO UNCALLED FOR I SWEAR

HELPS

[thorny violet]

@ionic hearth canvas is up and running again, we're so back!!!

[prime oxide]

Is it already up for us?

[thorny violet]

Oh, sorry I was referring to how my school uses canvas and it was down all yesterday when I was trying to use it for calculus

[ionic hearth]

Calculus finds a way !!

[prime oxide]

Oh 😭 I’m stupid

[thorny violet]

You're not stupid don't worry It does sound like I was talking about cornell because they use canvas too

[thorny violet]

Calculus finds its way!!!

[light kestrel]

do yall think its a good idea to emntion that if i cant take calc next demester im willing to do tje summer at cornell program to catch up in additional info

[chilly tree]

just wrote the most first supplemental CALS better watch out🔥🔥🔥

i’m def not getting in but i’m happy i could write something im proud of

it kinda pushed me through my writer’s block💪

[light kestrel]

like i’ll edit additional info for cornell and change it after

[ionic belfry]

Don’t offer up pssp tbh

It’s like saying that you’re willing to be a part of their invite only program

[weak valve]

^

Its inv only

Dont do that.

[light kestrel]

okok

thank u

[weak valve]

They accept ppl without it and then force them to take pssp

Dont offer it up in ur app

[glad siren]

its not required for everyone tho right

[ionic belfry]

Barely anyone usually

Like 150-250 kids I believe

[glad siren]

ohhh

only if u didnt take calc?

[ionic belfry]

No

@weak valve do you know the actual admissions criteria?

I just know that it seems to tend to be FGLI/URM but idk how they pick

It’s free which is nice

[glad siren]

maybe people with limted aps or smtg?

due to school limitations

[ionic belfry]

Smth like that

[glad siren]

that cool

but im tryna enjoy my summer before senior yr lmao

i aint getin in tho so im not worried

[elfin thunder]

cuz ur gonna be a blue devil duhh

[ionic belfry]

Yeah I wouldn’t have committed if I had to do it personally

[glad siren]

bro why u gettiung my hopes up

[elfin thunder]

https://tenor.com/view/excited-anticipation-gif-26437945

[thorny violet]

I got into CALS and they do have a crazy amount of supplementals...

[wanton turret]

do i HAVE to fill up the word count

the dyson essay is 650

is 566 enuf?

[glad siren]

idk

im at 350

but obv im adding more

[cloud rapids]

more than half of my essay supp is about my own inspiration and passions

only about a third is about cornell itself

struggling to find more

[ionic belfry]

@keen sage did 400

[wanton turret]

woahhh

[wanton turret]

i dont think it has to be much abt what dyson offers?

[loud hull]

For anyone who applied/is applying to CAS how close to 650 words was your why essay?

[lament snow]

it was over 650 until i trimmed

💀

there's like

a lot of shit to write about

[loud hull]

I'm trying so hard rn 😭

[lament snow]

since it asks you about literlaly everything

why you like learning what you learn

what you're planning on studying

why you're curious

why cornell/specifically cas

like they're asking 4-5 questions

💀

[indigo notch]

if im really interested in the bowers college, is it ok if i write all about it in the long arts and sciences supplement essay? The bowers college is a combination of parts of the AS engineering and agriculture life sciences colleges

[ionic hearth]

I never realized just how much they were 😭😭

[ionic hearth]

Mine was very close to 650, and was above it for a good amount

I had to trim out a lot

I think you'll find that for other essays you have to wrap up what ur saying

But Cornell let's you explore and weave and connect a bit more

[thorny violet]

It's 350, 650, 200, 100 I think? plus your common app

[cloud rapids]

depends on what you put for you intended area of study question

I put college of arts and sciences

the question is more about passion and inspiration

I always struggle with the "why this college" questions tho

[wanton turret]

ohhh

[manic ether]

shi i gotta do the 3 words

i forgot about that

[wanton turret]

what 3 words?

[manic ether]

engineering

describe you and cornell

[solar vortex]

why do they even ask for 3 words

whats that supposed to show

[unique pendant]

does cornell CAS take supplemental materials like research abstracts

some sources say they do but they say this on the website

[small escarp]

Wait 3 words?

Whaaat?

[unique pendant]

https://cornelladmissions.happyfox.com/kb/article/117-can-i-submit-supplemental-materials-with-my-application-to-the-college-of-arts-and-sciences/

[small escarp]

Can someone send screenshot of 3 words?

Do u mean 3 majors?

[lament snow]

future cornell student
let me in

[small escarp]

lol

Wait what is the 3 words thing????

[manic ether]

tf im a future cornell reject dawg 💀

[small escarp]

lol

[small escarp]

What is this can u send screenshot?

[manic ether]

what 3 words describe you

what 3 words describe cornell eng

its engineering in specific

[small escarp]

Is it on commonapp

[manic ether]

yes

[weak valve]

Ik non fgli urm that got it and it was rapped bc u need ab

Rwqtuiered

[manic ether]

essays done

prepared for my rejection

[solar vortex]

march is gonna be painful

[manic ether]

help i need a 3 words thing

and i cant use like overused shit

[wheat hamlet]

what do u guys think is cliche for the two three word prompts

[weak valve]

Abt u or abt eng

[manic ether]

im working on both

obv asking about eng here though since myself is a me thing

i had words in mind but theyre pretty popular and overused

[weak valve]

I put words rhat linked directly to my why eng

[manic ether]

wait i got an idea

lmfao

[thorny violet]

Live laugh love

Sorry that was so bad I'm a little ashamed

[ionic hearth]

Incredible

[ionic hearth]

Dont be

[zealous whale]

anyone know the acceptance rate to hotel administration?

[ionic belfry]

Hoteliesss

[zealous whale]

im kinda considering

i wanna get into ib

[ionic belfry]

It’s somewhere like 12-15 I think

[zealous whale]

dyson's really good too but hotel administration seems funner + same opportunities and higher gpa

[zealous whale]

ty

damn and dyson is 5% 💀

[ionic belfry]

Yeah it’s kinda self selecting

And divide between public and private

But Dyson is hard af

[zealous whale]

yea lol

[zealous whale]

my ecs dont have any experience in hospitality and stuff like that tho

they're more based on economic research/study abroad stuff and finance internships

[ionic belfry]

Oh damn

[zealous whale]

would that make applying to hotel impossible

or like pointless

[ionic belfry]

I think basically everyone at Nolan has hospitality experience

[zealous whale]

oh

[ionic belfry]

Or can at least rly speak to it

[zealous whale]

what would that look like for an ec

like an intership at a hotel?

[ionic belfry]

Working at hotels/resturants/real estate/culinary programs/hospitality program at school

[zealous whale]

oh damn i got none of that 💀

[ionic belfry]

Yeah like interning for 2 summers or smth is a good start

Up to you, you can still totally try

[zealous whale]

yea i think i would have a better chance at dyson than hotel then 💀

[zealous whale]

do u know if CAS economics is good for ib/finance jobs?

[glad siren]

thats probably why the acceptance rate seems high

even tho its probably just a reflection of the qualifications of the applicant pool

[ionic belfry]

Yeah they do

Especially with clubs

[quiet rock]

Hey I feel like I messed up understanding the prompt on the any person any study, I wrote about how having a debate with a professor made me realize this that this opened up a new perspective I hope you guys get my point but should I have wrote it that way

Well let me put it this way, is it similar to a prompt like how discussing an issue important with someone else with an opposing view made it feel meaningful

[zealous whale]

does acceptance rate for cas change based on major?

[ionic hearth]

Who knows

[ionic hearth]

Probably

but don’t counton it

[indigo notch]

could anyone take a look at my supplemental essay please?

[uncut wolf]

Sure :)

[wild spoke]

Can I?
