[CE2] Columbia Engineering Experience 2017

I just wanted to make this thread for the Columbia Engineering Experience since the deadline is today and I thought this would be a cool way to kill time as we wait anxiously for the results. So what general topics did you guys end up writing about in your short-answers? :stuck_out_tongue:

Anyone?

I applied a few days ago … I mainly just talked about my interest in biomedical engineering

@JWade2000 Yea pretty much same, although I had to talk about some humanities when discussing my favorite reading in the past year.

Same. I talked about my research in BME. For the favorite reading, I wrote about neuroscience and medicine.

@jsca17 Have you ever attended an info session at Columbia?

I’ve attended a combined session in my hometown, but I’ve never been to Columbia (which is why I was really excited about this program)

@jsca17 Ah okay interesting. Well hopefully we both get in :slight_smile:

I talked about circuit design and the papers I have written on circuit power optimization. I tried to show how I had a personal interest that started in the classroom.

I can’t remember, but what else did the application ask for? I’m wondering what y’alls SAT’s and GPAs and stuff are

My school doesn’t weigh GPA so I have a 3.96. I took the most challenging classes but since a lot of people have a 4.0 from easy classes, my rank is really bad. I wonder if counselors sent a school profile or something, or if it was just our transcript.

4 more days.

Where are you guys from??

Georgia

Oh cool I’m from CA

I’m from GA too!

Did you guys get an email from Columbia today? They said decisions come out Wed. after 5:00pm

Yes!! It mad enough me so nervous when I first saw it lmao. What are everyone’s stats??

Made me* no clue how I slaughtered that so badly

@OutForBlood You cant ask for someone’s stats if you haven’t given yours. That’s a cardinal sin :))
