#

i see

#

i got deferred

#

i dont wanna go here anyways

#

dont care

rich island
#

i don't think it's that bad rd

#

not like purdue or something

#

from what ive noticed ppl with 3.95-4.0 get in for engineering directly and ppl with 3.7-3.8 get put in exploratory or cas even if their test scores are higher, i think this is because the chancellors scholarship only considers gpa and not sat

mighty acorn
#

I would have considered it if I got in for aero

#

But I’m going to my state school over it now

rich island
#

what's ur state school

mighty acorn
#

OSU

rich island
#

oh damn nice

mighty acorn
#

I still have a couple left so it’s not the end of the world but

#

Would’ve been nice to have another aero acceptance other than OSU

rich island
#

ik exploratory isnt bad and it's very easy to transfer to engineering but like after purdue defer this is painful

#

😭

mighty acorn
#

Like it seems like UIUC is fucked now too

rich island
#

i hope i get into uiuc

#

idt i'll get in first choice (mech)

#

but mat sci has like 50% ar

Checking out boulder is pretty cool, it's a cute town

tulip apex
#

my physics teacher audibly screamed when i told her i got in

(she thought it was my dream school 😭 )

left crown
#

My history teacher (attended boulder for masters) apparently got so excited when my friend told him that he’s already telling us to plan a road trip to boulder 😭

vital blaze

knotty kettle
#

ain't it 80% acceptance rate???

tulip apex
#

It's actually quite competitive for some majors

#

Esp engineering

#

They accept many but only a portion of those people actually get into engineering

vital blaze
#

i know astro majors are extremely competitive

knotty kettle
vital blaze
#

oh thats somewhat hard to get into

knotty kettle
#

I literally got into Pitt and rutgers bruh

#

pitt is 50% ar and rutgers is 35% for this application cycle

vital blaze
#

knotty kettle

80 PERCENT ACCEPTANCE RATE

#

i think my luck is actually just dog shit

#

hot roost
#

The engineering department is not 80

#

In the low 4050 probs

#

Engineering acceptance rates are not high to begin with
Applies to almost every uni

mighty acorn
#

Aero is much lower

#

Like a lot lower

hot roost
#

Sad

#

We are too naive

#

I mean
We are young

left crown

half of these mfs who got A's in ap chem

#

#

if they dditnt cheat

#

one bitch admitted to my face

#

"oh yeah if i didnt sit next to {student. name} i wouldnt have gotten an A in ap chem"

#

likt its fucked

#

this is why bay area schools r a huge scam

left crown
#

we had one scandal in soph year where one dude sent everyone his assignment bc ppl knew he was good at AP Lang and they were too lazy to the do the assignmment themselves so they lowk just copied off of him
AP Lang teacher probably hunted down like 15 kids and figured out that their writing was too similar to the OG guy's writing 💀
