Im so Happy I finished all of my classes last week

For some reason my school makes ap students take a final thatā€™s 30% of our semester grade

I could not handle the ap physics and chem tests with columbia coming out at the same time

#

Oh I see

So like pro tip

#

We have @wise pulsar for this stuff

So instead of just complaining to the void itā€™s super helpful if you let us know somewhere we will see instead of hoping on chance

hi,

Iā€™m applying to Columbia for rd

I am just adding the research supplement of my application.

Just checking that the 200 word abstract is all thatā€™s needed for this bit. Will they ever want to or will get to read my actual work or is it more so just a tick box that Iā€™ve done research in hs?

Thanks

frozen ridge

t minus 1

#

i saw that

undone heath
#

im looking at both and from what I'm seeing there is no difference between seas and cc except that cc forces you to take specific humanities while seas gives you the freedom to pick which one you want?
(also seas requires like 3 semesters of chem and physics)

#

guess im doing seas then

#

and yes thank you

undone heath

thank you so much

They will really get both departments to look at it ?

no clue LMAO

they dont say anything on their website

abt like who reviews it n stuff

winter island

well

either way

#

canā€™t hurt to add it

pine steeple
#

yuhh

#

im looking at other schools like MIT rn

#

they say that their faculty reviews stuff like arts and research portfolios

#

i would assume columbia isnt much different

winter island
#

Or just the abstract

#

And info on it

#

because thatā€™s a lot for them to read like big big ahh research papers

realistically, im aware most of us will get deferred lmao

unless you're absolutely crushing it, recrutied athlete, etc

vivid orbit

bill seems to be convinced that im in so im going to trust in him

#

delululu is the solululu

chance me for columbia university early decision as an admissions officer

plucky kernel

I did that too it said "accepted without hesitation"

Chat gpt getting my hopes up

plucky kernel
proud fulcrum

šŸ™„

frozen ridge
#

not actually valid guys šŸ˜­

#

accepted without hesitation is what i got earlier too until i ran it later in the day

#

i think as it gets closer it lowkey might give you worse odds

proud fulcrum
#

Dang

frozen ridge
#

just says better than average, 50-55% accepted , 35%-40% defer, 10-15% reject

#

but my cousin who got rejected from rice got the same thing and he got cold reject

vivid orbit
frozen ridge
#

yeah exactly

proud fulcrum
#

Bye

#

Chatgpt a liar

frozen ridge
#

it's not, we likely just have similar stats

#

mine went from 50-55% to 55-60% after it realized it missed out my robotics team is top 7-9% internationally

proud fulcrum
#

at this point a percentage doesnt do anything

#

we just got to get zen

#

focus on other stuff for 24 hours

frozen ridge

breathe deep, tomorrow is game day

frozen ridge
#

my uc app essays were honestly so much better

i wish columbia's prompts were longer

proud fulcrum
#

i feel the same about my rd apps

dense wagon
#

columbia needs more words fr

proud fulcrum
#

like i cooked for harvard

frozen ridge

cause i do better weaving stories when it's longer

#

#

really i hated the uc prompts

proud fulcrum
frozen ridge
#

i wrote about fnaf, backyard baseball 2001, crayon boxes, and being humiliated in a kinky ass way in front of my ap psych class

vivid orbit
#

after i added some more details

frozen ridge
#

it did that shit to me too

vivid orbit
#

im cokoed

proud fulcrum
frozen ridge
#

LOL no i made it

#

it's all about how you interpret the prompt

proud fulcrum
#

oh,,, just for funsies or

frozen ridge
#

i had fun with my ucs

proud fulcrum
#

huh

#

interesting

#

maybe i shouldve applied

frozen ridge
#

my cousin wrote about dodging roblox chat bans

for the one i wrote about bb'01 for

proud fulcrum
frozen ridge
#

and he got in ucla so

proud fulcrum
#

are any of you guys applying abroad

frozen ridge
#

no

including this year

frozen ridge
#

4.0 gpa 15 aps, test optional

vivid orbit
#

my gpa is probably the weakest part of my app overall

frozen ridge
#

i think im gonna dominate the test optional group ngl

proud fulcrum
#

like some places a 4.0 means nothing

vivid orbit
proud fulcrum
#

exactly

frozen ridge
#

yes

proud fulcrum
#

so

#

if your gpa is good for your school then youre good right

frozen ridge
#

the best school in my area has a even lower threshold for an A so it's fine

frozen ridge
vivid orbit
#

But I donā€™t think Iā€™m in the top 10% of my graduating class lol

frozen ridge
#

WHATTT
