Acceptance to LBW - Leadership in the Business World

<p>My reason for asking would be under the pretense that I intend to apply early decision to Wharton in the fall, and I felt it would help me evaluate what I need to work on. Does this found fair you think or no?</p>

<p>Another thing. What is interesting is LBW seems like it turned out super-competitive for guys...30/220. This program might be almost as competitive as Wharton! (if you turned in your app near the end)</p>

<p>well i may apply early in the fall to wharton as well, i mean i know why i didnt get into this program my psats were way below the standard of those who got/ and usually get in the program despite my strong points elsewhere</p>

<p>all i know is that they track and write it down everytime you call so it may work out to your disadvantage</p>

<p>or advantage? showing interest? i dunno...</p>

<p>i have a question about the PSAT thing. I had 189 on the PSAT but sent in my 2070 SAT score. Even though I wasn't happy w/ the 2070, I was at least in the range. Do you think the PSAT itself still hurt me?</p>

<p>Wow...there r ppl in here who are more qualified than i am who got in.</p>

<p>i mean got rejected</p>

<p>I think the PSAT scores wouldn't have mattered if you showed strong leadership in whatever you submitted, good essay and good rec. letter.</p>

<p>I think the SAT scores would replace the PSAT in the application. I don't know exactly what they weighed most heavily- how do you really measure leadership, anyway?
S also applied to M&T and hasn't heard anything from them. He doesn't want to go anyway, he decided. (saves some $$$) He wants to go live in the woods by himself for the month of July at altitude and train for his sport.</p>

<p>I had PSAT scores of 215 but when a guy called me to give me more information about the program he said that the average is 1400, which is around 210 I think. So if you're in that range.. probably around 200-240 your scores should've been okay.</p>

<p>We received the LBW information packet today. Most of the forms are due June 1. Of course, payment balance needs to be sent immediately.</p>

<p>Hi!
I am going to LBW this summer 2! so where does everyone come from? I am from Wellesley, MA! is there any international students here? coz I am international 2. </p>

<p>btw...I do feel that admission does not always based on SAT*! everyone who applies to lbw is well-qualified. I am thinking that they want diversity and maybe if you apply early...we get a better chance!</p>

<p>I mean "you" on my last sentence!</p>
