shut turret
#

u can def make 700k+ with bonuses if you're cracked

viscid python
#

just gotta have actual skill

signal cosmos
#

ur bonus can be like up to 100-200% of ur acc salary

dense kernel
#

I’m working at a HF

signal cosmos
#

which is why the hours are worth it

signal cosmos
shut turret
#

u can also mess it up

signal cosmos
#

realistically u need like usamo level math

shut turret
#

if ur bad

signal cosmos
#

or be v good at cs + math

viscid python
#

lowkey idk anything about quant

#

or finance

shut turret
#

im probably not built for quant tbh

signal cosmos
#

i feel like

#

schools like ncsmm or bronxsci that pump out stem students

#

prob r best suited for quant

#

they prob have done some qquant problems

#

liek applied physics

#

to financial mdoels

shut turret
#

ik plenty of ppl that would be much better at quant than me lmao

viscid python

#

that ik

signal cosmos

at first

shut turret
viscid python
#

idk

signal cosmos
#

but then 1 of the 2 ppl that got yale likely they were also v space based

viscid python
#

i will figure out how much in school competition matters

#

depending on what happens

shut turret
#

like uni

shut turret
signal cosmos
#

ye

#

him

shut turret
#

but that was mostly sts

signal cosmos
#

he had nasa tho?

#

and ajas not that it matters too much

viscid python
#

no the nasa thing is like not an internship

#

i think

#

smth else

shut turret
#

theres a lot of space ppl

viscid python
#

lots of aerospace people

signal cosmos
#

ohh

#

yeah

CHASE HARTMAN LOL

lean hatch
#

if ivy+ means "peer of at least 1 ivy" then northwestern and jhu would count

swift locust
signal cosmos
#

they always go so underrated

#

last year

#

4 of coke '23 were cameron

#

even getting finalist (75/3000) is crazy

#

cus they cap it off for ed/ed2

signal cosmos
signal cosmos
#

nu imo is slightly better then jhu but its marginal

#

if jhu improves its humanities focus

#

then it can be t10 easily

ik he has a trust fund

signal cosmos
signal cosmos
#

he screams nepo

#

actually

#

considering he got robertson finalist and gmu finalist and hesiman + jefferson+ boys state scholly id say hes cracked

#

he knows the sauce on how to go to college for free

#

the fact that he started in 2017 makes him cracked

It’s far

Thanks pookie

i’ve heard that hawk is just a weirdo

but I'd have to get in firstkek

your sweeping these lmao

isnt this like ur 5th one now

native willow
#

ofc just remember these and not the coke, presidential, cameron, morehead, jefferson that i failed

signal cosmos
#

u didnt get presidential?

#

i thought u had perf stats

native willow
#

1580 and 36 not enough

signal cosmos
#

damn

swift locust
#

36 is enough in any state

#

contact them!!

signal cosmos

also i thought u were jefferson finalist

signal cosmos
swift locust
signal cosmos
#

wonder how much got finalist

native willow
signal cosmos
#

oh

#

did u do 40 acres

swift locust
signal cosmos
#

theres like 11-12

#

scholars

#

thats crazy

swift locust
#

some sections don’t count towards qualification

#

and 36 comp is enough for all states I’m pretty sure

#

I think science doesn’t count

#

varies based on state

dense kernel
native willow
#

mine was not perf 36

#

perhaps thats why

#

and my sat was 790 790, yes idk how i didnt get a 800 math dont bully

there's no way around grinding tbh

well

signal cosmos

yeah thats what i thought so

waxen dragon
#

imagine not making usamo 3x

lean hatch
#

i'd presume you're passing advice to someone else

waxen dragon
#

smh

signal cosmos
lean hatch
#

oh

signal cosmos
#

its for my own knowledge

#

so i can use it to

#

help my siblings

warped gale
#

usamo L

signal cosmos
#

they r doing aops rn

#

amc 8 next year

warped gale
#

imagine taking usamo

signal cosmos
#

is that too late?

lean hatch
#

you're basically passing advice to someone else

#

no

signal cosmos
#

oh yeah

#

mb i misread

warped gale

lean hatch
#

not too late imo

warped gale
#

twins?

signal cosmos
lean hatch

both r twins

warped gale
#

oh okay

signal cosmos
#

lmao

warped gale
#

cool

#

uhhhh

dense kernel
#

hawk is gonna help me create a profile for my sister too 🙂

lean hatch
#

aops books are overrated

signal cosmos
#

the pre-algebra book?

warped gale
#

honestly

signal cosmos
#

thats the one im using rn

warped gale
#

it was just a lot of practice problems

#

i began to identify quirky stuff

signal cosmos
#

yeah j drilling psets

#

is there any pattern recognitions

lean hatch
#

i just did practice test after practice test

signal cosmos
#

ah i see

warped gale
#

there's a lot of obvious theorems in play if you just look a little harder

#

i remember one of them was literally a reformatted theorem which i'd learned the week before

lean hatch
#

i started at maybe 80 on the amc 10, but worked my way up to 130 on old tests when i first made aime in 8th grade; i found alcumus helpful at that stage

signal cosmos
#

nice nice

#

whats alcumus?

#

yt channel

lean hatch
#

aime is the same story basically

signal cosmos
#

got it

#

amc 8 shouldnt be that bad right

lean hatch
#

yeah

signal cosmos
#

where does the gap start to widen drastically

#

aime -> usamo?

warped gale
#

yeah

lean hatch
#

as i know it, usamo -> mop

#

but ofc

#

each gap is wider than the last one

signal cosmos
#

i see

lean hatch
#

by a lot

signal cosmos
#

yeha

warped gale
#

yeah

signal cosmos
#

mop kids are a whole diff playing field

warped gale
#

hawk can i friend

signal cosmos
#

and then tst

#

sure

warped gale
#

for funsies

lean hatch
#

mop -> imo requires much much more talent than anything before it

signal cosmos
#

did u guys do any camp

#

in middle school

lean hatch
#

nah

warped gale
#

nah

lean hatch
#

only online awesomemath

warped gale
#

i did [insert big math camp] tho <3

signal cosmos
#

oh nice

lean hatch
#

oh

signal cosmos
#

thats good

#

world class ppl there

warped gale
#

fr fr ong

#

i was so not world class

#

i was just quirky

lean hatch
#

i went to one of {sumac, ross, mathcamp} last year

signal cosmos
#

usa canda blobfear

warped gale
lean hatch
#

tbh the camp gave me impostor syndrome xD

signal cosmos
#

yeah makes sense

warped gale
lean hatch
#

everyone there knew more higher math than me it felt like

signal cosmos
#

well knowing pure math is diff then comp math

#

but ig those programs r more pure math based

#

not sure abt usa/canada

lean hatch
warped gale
swift locust
#

did any of y’all play on FTW 😭😭

#

that was my middle school fr

signal cosmos
#

is that mathcounts

#

thing

swift locust
#

yeah

lean hatch
#

omg

#

i was cracked at the game

warped gale
#

i sucked

lean hatch
#

i started comp math too late tho

#

😔

signal cosmos
#

what grade

#

u got usamo 2x tho

#

and almost MOP

lean hatch
#

end of 7th grade

signal cosmos
#

barely missed out on MOP

#

damn

swift locust
lean hatch
#

yeah i didnt even make mathcounts states so the ftw practice never got applied

warped gale
signal cosmos
#

and my siblings r doing it rn too

#

does everyone do it in 7th

#

or smth

warped gale
#

like

#

start comp math grind?

signal cosmos
#

comp math

#

yea

warped gale
#

nah some insane people start in elementary school cursedmoon

lean hatch
#

starting around 4th/5th grade is much more common nowadays among the "serious" grinders (around my level?)

#

there are a few moppers who have around my timeline tho

static harbor

static harbor

ik kids in bay area

warped gale
signal cosmos
lean hatch
#

kids in competitive areas in general

warped gale
#

i no like comp </3

signal cosmos
#

comp math gets boring past a point

#

yea

warped gale
#

i like collaboration <3

signal cosmos
#

samesies

lean hatch
signal cosmos
#

wow

warped gale
signal cosmos
#

come home and drill practice problems

#

take mocks

#

repeat

lean hatch
#

all i remember from middle school before aops was eating rocks, man

viscid python
#

I mean people start sometimes on aops beast academy in like 2nd or 3rd grade, and comps like continental math league start in 3rd grade

warped gale
#

thats why i gave up this sem smile

lean hatch
#

yeah same

warped gale
#

WHY ARE WE THE SAME PERSON

#

rocks are tasty 😋

lean hatch
#

NONO BUT ROCKS ARE SO YUM

signal cosmos
warped gale
lean hatch
viscid python
#

and even before that some people just have an inclination toward math

#

it’s a passion

lean hatch
#

yeah

warped gale
#

the realest burnout pipeline is gifted and talented

lean hatch
#

also depends on ur resources

#

most insane higher math kids i know have parents who r highly educated too (phd in stem type beat)

warped gale
#

i'm not insane dw

#

<3

viscid python
#

I feel like in an alternate universe I could have been decent at comp math

#

(Totally not cope)

warped gale
#

bros in gt

#

just kidding i understand you

viscid python
#

my dad majored in applied math like I have the genes

#

surely

warped gale
#

sure but tbh i know some goofy people majoring in applied math

#

not to downplay ur dad

#

but i just had to share that info

lean hatch
#

idrk what "comp math genes" are tbh

viscid python
#

when he did it it was like a new major at IIT or something

#

idk

warped gale

yeah ig duke might be a much more different environment yknow

like a more rich pretentious money opens doors environment

Yea one thing I noticed at Duke it’s def like a bubble within Durham

U can see the difference

And duke tends to skew rich

Duke merit scholarships are announced in mid-may this year… after ppl enroll ☹️

"Your application to Duke University is the basis on which eligibility for merit scholarships is determined. If you are selected as a finalist for a merit scholarship, you will be notified via email from this office in early May. Finalists will then interview with scholarship selection committees and merit scholarships will be awarded no later than mid June."

Its on their webpage😵

"Your application to Duke University is the basis on which eligibility for merit scholarships is determined. If you are selected as a finalist for a merit scholarship, you will be notified via email from this office in March of the year before you enroll at Duke. Finalists will then interview with scholarship selection committees and merit scholarships will be awarded no later than mid-April."

#

This is wht i found on the web archive.

#

So they did change it.

swift locust

but that’s due to the scotus ruling

#

Wht abt Karsh? It's need-based as much as merit-based.

#

I don't knw how they could even decide who the scholars are after enrollment esp for Karsh.

swift locust
graceful horizon
#

So lets say i get in
But didnt win Karsh

#

They will hav to meet my full needs anyway

swift locust
#

True

#

Demonstrated need

graceful horizon
#

Thts crazy. I really dun knw

#

How tht wuld work

undone galleon
#

When is this coming

graceful horizon
#

But again all Karsh scholarship finalists last yr probably got in anyway. So mayb they want to see commitment this year.

#

I really thought i wuld knw ahead. 😔

#

after enrollment?

lol so duke is js flexing that they got money

is there any incentive for duke to do that

basically had an interview yesterday which was really late and then they requested some css documents this morning and my interviewer said that i should seriously consider attending but i really didn't think i had a chance because i checked off the box that said I can not attend unless I get a full ride and then didn't apply for that scholarship 💀💀

forest iron
#

the scholarship covers full tuition + other expenses right?

#

id assume that if u can manage just the additional expenses they might give u a good financial aid

#

not sure though

#

the css profile will make it clear though

#

gl!!

i don't really want to live in china for 4 years tho 😬

#

I heard tht checklist disappeared on march 20th last yr.

#

So this is early. Decisions might come out earlier

#

jux a guess tho

#

They changed their interview policy this yr. & they also changed their merit scholarship finalist annoucement policy.
They be changing everything. Mayb earlier decisions too

pale bane

maybe a week earlier

are we the only animal testers?

guys this is getting too real

amber gorge
#

does no interview this year mean ur cooked?

swift needle
#

no they only gave interviews to ppl they needed more info on

amber gorge
#

So cooked if app isn’t super amazing?

swift needle
#

i mean not necessarily

amber gorge
#

I haven’t really seen duke admits without an interview in the past just based off of collegeresults

swift needle
#

Someone here got a likely w/o interview

#

So it’s possible

amber gorge
#

well that’s a super amazing app then

#

no interview since they already knew they’re amazing

rocky granite
#

it makes more sense that a likely would be provided without an interview

#

because if theyre that impressive from the getgo then no more information is needed

forest iron
#

So chill :))

swift locust

so historical evidence is irrelevant

aka competitive applicants

Harvard doesn't think so

😭😭

graceful horizon
#

& they are assigned by admissions...not by regional chairs like last years

halcyon wharf
#

I lvoe you duke

graceful horizon
swift locust
#

then again a majority of those interviewed will be rejected

just some positivity for ur day

graceful horizon
#

M curious abt the breakdown tho
Intl n domestic

swift locust
#

true

#

this year is SO strange for admissions, lots of experimenting

It's safe to assume they interviewed a lot more domestic applicants
