Chance (roast) me back!
Perhaps you can also take the SAT math subject test and I think Georgetown requires 3 subject tests
@1zogden1 @DurejaVu Interesting that you guys think Bucknell is a safety. I thought it would be a solid match at most since its acceptance rate is so low especially for business. Do you think CMU, UNC(out of state), and Duke night be good reaches too? Kind of stretching with Duke but CMU looks like a solid reach right?
Georgetown does require 3 for RD but I’m applying EA where it isn’t required. I’ll take 2 more if I get deferred though and I’ll be more prepared for them then.
The acceptance rate is low, but so are the requirements to get in.
