My List of Schools
Hey guys, So basically I'm applying to undergrad schools this year and will be applying for the school of business in some schools. Can you guys go over my stats and see if this is a good list and suggest some additional schools? I'm not asking for a chance thread, just some helpful suggestions for schools to add:
Race - Indian State - NC UW GPA - 3.87 W GPA - 4.45 out of 5
AP - 15 by end of senior year, Honors - 10, Regular - 4 3 B's - (2 in AP and 1 Regular) (2 Freshman Year, 1 Sophomore Year) Everything else is an A SAT - 1490
Tons of extra curriculars, state level leadership positions in TSA association, app state Martha guy business summer institute, ton of volunteer positions (300 hours over 3 years), DECA State Finalist, etc...
MY LIST OF SCHOOLS:
BC VILLANOVA FORDHAM NYU CORNELL, BROWN, DARTMOUTH (I doubt I have a chance at these schools) IU KELLY UNC Chapel Hill, Wake Forest (only because it's in state;doesn't help for NY BB/EB IB) COLGATE NORTHWESTERN TOP NESCAC'S GEORGETOWN UVA NOTRE DAME MICHIGAN OLIN
I made this list so that the schools I apply to offer the BEST OCR/ALUMNI BASE to NY BB/EB IB depending on my academic stats as well. Please add schools that will be a perfect match to my stats
Thanks again
You have an amazing chance. I would apply to Ivy's and privates such as Georgetown!
Good luck fucker! Keep us updated
Hey, were you joking around? Being Indian obviously makes it tougher, but thanks for the tip on the Ivy's
Yeah man, but it should help. If your test scores are top notch then I would consider Ivys. I mean 15 AP classes? how tf is that possible!?
itt tech
Lmao
I'd consider Duke since you're in NC and I would apply to Cal and Columbia. I would probably leave off 3-4 of the names you list given your profile, but that would be my personal bias. Also, it's IU Kelley.
Can you tell me which are the 3-4 because I'm trying to it down on my list to find the perfect balance between OCR and alumni base. And thanks for giving me the heads up about the Kelley
I'll send you a PM. Would rather not publicly put down any schools.
I would recommend Amherst/Williams/Bowdoin. Sometimes overlooked but very strong placement
Yes, that's why i mentioned top NESCAC's. Thank you for the tip
I'd pick Le Cordon Bleu culinary institute over that list any day of the week. BEST PE placement, and by PE i meant Physical Exercise.
Tbh, so many students underestimate themselves. Yes you're indian but it's all about how u individualize your self to admissions. I'd say go for ivy leagues as well as UC Berkeley. Ik some people who last minute applied to ivies thinkign they weren't gonna get in but still got in and i also know some friends who deeply regretted not even trying for ivies. If you don't at least give it a shot, you'll go on never knowing what doors you possibly closed yourself to.
Hi, I was wondering how UC Berkely is prestigious enough for NY Placement. I know it's phenomenal for west coast.
nah too many students overestimate themselves. competitiveness at american universities is on a whole different level. ivies would be a reach for this guy
Like I said, u never know if u never try. Point is, all the guy has to lose is the application fee and extra time for supplementary essays so why not try? U also never know what a uni is looking for, there's a lot of luck - so try your best but remember it's also a numbers game
Replace Brown for a school like Emory (Goizueta) or USC (Marshall). aka remove highly prestigous liberal arts universities you admit you are unlikely to be admitted and replace with semi-targets with good B schools
I was wondering what I'm lacking for liberal arts admission
It's not that you lack for liberal arts admissions its that you admitted yourself that Brown would be a stretch, and even if you got in there just isnt much of a network of those guys in finance. I think you have a higher chance at getting and, and achieving your career goals at the other 2 schools I mentioned
middlebury- their placement is astounding relative to the overall class size
Ok, but do you think I can get accepted to such a prestigious liberal arts school?
You should add UC BERKELEY so you can SMASH in windows and RIOT!
But I'm not a liberal. But I get your point. I can prepare to live in a liberal infested hellhole like NY by going to schools like UC Berkeley
New York isn't a HELLHOLE, it's the GREATEST city in the fucking UNIVERSE!
Man I have a feeling you won't enjoy life
You need to shave your head, pretend to be black, and Americanize your name. You'll then have your pick of any Ivy League school you want. Take it from this guy: http://nypost.com/2015/04/12/mindy-kalings-brother-explains-why-he-pret…
Dude I really want to, but what if they find out
Be a phoenix, bro. University of Phoenix online affords you the flexibility to work towards a PhD while working a day job expressing dog anal glands as a dog groomer.
take off nova fordham olin iu
I thought Olin's placement was phenomenal and that Nova is an upcoming school that has increasing presence on the street. In addition to this, I'm just using Fordham as a safety. Would you agree with this or are my statements wrong?
They seem like low tier (in terms of IB recruiting) and really expensive safeties given your profile.
