NYU Steinhardt global public health media cultures and communications or Cornell CALS bio and society

#

but I hate science…

cosmic relic
#

I wanted to go to NYU not bc of NYU, but how accessible things are in the city

#

there are a shit ton of hobbies u can pick up, they'll just be expensive

surreal scarab
#

And I would be worried since I need to get good grades at my first college for Cornell in science classes that I would flop

#

And then not be able to transfers

#

if u do decide NYU, check out indoor rock climbing

its actually a great hobby

Otherwise waste of money

I just don’t like the area of Cornell and they’re better for STEM I feel

Yeah I just want to be sure that I don’t want to go I guess

What major r u again

vapid mason
bronze egret
#

Cornell lowkey a v well rounded school I wouldn’t say we have specific spikes

#

Loci can be half a page dw

vapid mason
#

i don't have much to say bc i already wrote them one after deferral

#

i just gotta grind this out

#

do they consider demonstrated interest?

bronze egret
#

Just say you’ll go if accepted and any other small updates

vapid mason
#

also, they say "We also encourage you to have your school submit an updated official grade report". So do they want my mp3 grades?

#

they already got my mid yr grades (mp1 and mp2)

Whatever ur most updated grades are works

#

It’s mainly a formality

Okay cool

For Pre-Law

tame sandal

Bro is humanities judging stem curriculum

#

😭

#

brown is more suited for humanities

#

but i wanna ask

#

why french

bronze egret
#

( not that brown isn’t, just def not a thing we r bad at)

slate stream
sick shore
# noble cedar why french

I love the language and would like to use it in some way with my future career, maybe through international law or something like that

#

But I really just want to become fluent

#

Poli Sci will definitely be my main thing

#

But yeah I think Brown with open curriculum and grade inflation may be my best bet

noble cedar
sick shore
#

Honestly not sure

#

I find judge work interesting or teaching law

#

If I decide to teach I would want to get my PhD though

tame sandal
tawny oxide
tame sandal
#

From what i understand u can pass fail any class

#

But thats not grade inflation.

tawny oxide
#

im p sure brown has the highest gpa average amongst all the ivy leagues

sick shore
#

I’ve heard it’s better for getting a higher GPA there

#

That’s definitely not my main reason though

#

They’re all so similarly prestigious and I really like the vibe of Brown

#

And Cornell and Penn are just so different from Brown

tame sandal
tame sandal
#

But if you’re looking at grad, you can’t rlly p/f everything

sick shore
#

Yeah

#

If I were STEM I would go with Penn or Cornell

#

But I think for humanities Brown might be better overall?

#

I mean they’re all similar for undergrad though

tame sandal
#

Yea

sick shore
#

It’s hard to find accurate info about better French programs honestly

#

I mean Niche is there but is that accurate 😭

tame sandal
sick shore
#

Well Brown has the Brown in Paris program

glad sorrel
#

yall right about Brown grade inflation

#

you won’t find that here

tropic vector
#

With the student body averaging an A-

tawny oxide
#

no

#

not anymore anyways

tropic vector
#

It definitely does, or at least still has insane grade inflation

tawny oxide
#

definitely not lol

#

At least not in STEM, idk what they be doing over there in humanities

tropic vector
#

Looking into my friend's curriculum Brown is definitely #1 for grade inflation, followed very closely by Harvard

#

As an overall school

tame sandal
#

From what ive heard abt brown premed

#

It is no better than the avg school in terms of inflation

#

Since u still have to take ur classes for grades

#

Anyone can join, but the opportunities comes from a scholarship. You need to be physically fit, medically qualified, and check a few academic boxes to get a scholarship

#

Cornell has near a 100% scholarship rate for NROTC

noble cedar
tropic vector
#

For NROTC the minimums for males 18-19 are 63 push ups in 2 minutes, a 2:04 plank, and an 11 minute 1.5 mile. For female the requirements are lower, just not sure exactly

#

Maximum for male is 92 push ups, 3:24 plank, and 8:15 1.5 mile

#

You want to be closer to max for a scholarship, but it's not impossible if you are around average/middle

#

Air Force has lower standards, and idk about Army

Or is this smth they train u into

The Thursday before break called for 4am wakeup, the workout was 5am to 7am

#

Yeah, the minimum requirements aren't bad

#

And the max push ups and plank isn't bad, the run is a killer tho

#

That's where most struggle

noble cedar

The run shouldnt be bad

#

Depends on endurance and whatnot

I could swim a mile in that time

8:15 is definitely a little hard lol

Transferring to CAS Is generally easy

Then if u plan to transfer alrdy try to make room within engineering requirements (bc u are forced to take certain classes each sem in engineering) for some CAS courses to facilitate ur transfer

Is there a Cornell'29 Discord server? I didn't get admitted but my friend did, hoping to send it to them because they wanted it.

manifesting waitlist movement for us

#

I've seen some people online say that they got off the waitlist by mentioning that they're open to being admitted for a different school. is this allowed and is cornell allowed to admit me based on this? also could this be a possible red flag if my application was pretty centered around engineering

bronze egret
#

But no that shouldn’t affect it

vapid mason

Idk i just saw some people online highlight some of their other interests and that they would be open to being admitted for a different major

hi ik i'm asking a lot of questions but i haev another one...

#

so i saw on reddit that some ppl that got off cornell's wl got asked to write another essay or why us? Anyone know if this is true? Cuz if they ask me to do this i migt be cooked bc i plan to make my loci just a big why us and i won't have anything to say for the essay

tame sandal

I feel like this is smth that doesnt rlly matter

Deal with it if they ask

If they dont then ur fine

Maybe I should have applied to human eco or cals

Are those schools easier to get into

severe timber
#

A bit

velvet wharf
#

A strong why us can always be expanded

#

Also I’ve never heard about this either so I would just submit a good why us in the loci

Accepted off sorry

Cornell’s yield is like what 65 percent

But I feel like they slightly over admit to compensate for it

Nah idk how long

Just wanted the option if it is that long tho

you can take a gap year probably

but like why not just choose cornell? It's obviously 10 times better than a community college or local state uni?

urban saffron

Ross

tawny oxide

So lol?

urban saffron
#

So it’s not 10 times better

tawny oxide
#

I mean idk

#

Pretty sure I'd still pick C0rnell

tame sandal
#

Upstate ny is far

urban saffron
#

Umich I got into Ross

#

And it’s 60k / year cheaper

#

Like normal umich I’d say yes Cornell lot better but disagree abt Ross being that big a difference

bronze egret
#

Just go to Ross

tame sandal
#

i dont get the wanting cornell TO now

#

if u actually dont care abt staying near home

#

LOL

#

ik its a norm to turn down far schools even if better ranked to stay home n care for a parent

tawny oxide
#

#

Like I'm 99% sure Cornell is better than UMich Ross lol

tame sandal

but i dont get just not actually caring abt the distance

and what

doing a trial run

for a year

of umich

Ik ppl who got placed really well in Chicago from Cornell tho

I mean one person so not people but still kek

bronze egret

I mean I’m from Chicago

#

People place very well everywhere at cornell

#

Michigan rly only feeds Chicago bc of proximity

tawny oxide
#

What is the actual argument to go to UMich Ross over Cornell tho? Like the ivy league reputation, the connections, the opportunities? I would argue that even if UMich Ross places well in Chicago due to proximity, it's still gonna be worth ur while to go to cornell

bronze egret
#

30k a year could be a big diff

tawny oxide
#

Assuming they could afford both

bronze egret
#

Yeah then u go cornell

tawny oxide
#

what

bronze egret

Ik like ten people here that turned Ross down

Typo

#

Even Ross full ride down

tawny oxide
#

Yeah ik? Like I don't get the argument if he doesn't rlly HAVE to or 100% want to stay home to take care of any fam

#

maybe I'm just a d1 hater tho

tame sandal
#

60k cheaper is a shitload

#

for 4 years

so that is the main pt im seeing

cuz the staying home he does not seem to care abt lol

Football and stuff too

Also I hear like a lot abt depression

# urban saffron Football and stuff too

Oh, if ur into football maybe? Though I hardly see the big point in that when choosing a college; I think you should take a more in-depth look into your marginal benefit when considering UMich Ross vs Cornell

#

btw ur only allowed to hate on cornell if ur in the ivy league (not brown) or MIT/Stanford
