Chances at Ivies + CalTech + MIT

<p>High standardized test scores, low gpa. That too confusing?</p>

<p>I looked at your stats and I think you are looking in the wrong direction. I looked up some schools that fit you better than the ones you put in your OP</p>

<p>Benedict College
Lincoln University (MO)
Grambling State University</p>

<p>Hope this helps !
Cheers</p>

<p>no way will i need to go to those if i can easily go duke! essentially i agree it will be tough for me to make HYP, but come on the others come on</p>

<p>and yea i did bomb the math level 1 comparatively, but give me a break fellas i took it in 9th grade, none of u can do that!</p>

<p>i did it in 8th grade ! With my eyes closed and one hand behind my back. Beat that bucko</p>

<p>Redbirdz, you are EXTREMELY arrogant. I think that it has been more than generous of everyone to give you so many replies, which you obviously don't deserve. Although your scores are amazing, your smugness is not. I hope that colleges will take the time to look at the PERSON who is applying, rather than their scores. Generally speaking, if colleges would take the time to get a good look at their applicants, instead of their statistics, they woud have a better group of individuals attending their colleges.</p>

<p>yeah... i hope they make him do an interview.. whaha
i would pay to watch that</p>

<p>oh redbirdz. youre the guy who gets raped in college by a man smarter than you. smartbrotha was right to an extent. you dont deserve the attention your getting, but you do deserve the beat-down your getting by more mature people.
ok, i challenge you. impress me/1up me in a non-academic way. dont use your stats, use your manners, and your other skills...can you do it? can you say you invented the internet? (f u, al gore.)</p>

<p>OT
go sriharifez.... go GOP (Al Gore's house uses up 20x more electricity than the average American household.... the *****)

<p>...</p>

<p>lol........the interview would be pretty funny</p>

<p>sriharifez how can u say i dont deserve these replies wen on the side u send me extensive private messages! ur absolutely ridiculous!</p>

<p>i owned all the interviews, OWNED! i didnt get for all schools tho</p>

<p>redbirdz, if you are being dead serious about everything you have posted here, there are two things i don't believe:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Your test scores: and believe me, if i thought for one second you actually got all of those scores, i would never say this because if you really got them the fact that i find them unbelievable would merely stoke the fires of your infernal ego.</p></li>
<li><p>That you really managed to hide what a douche bag you are throughout not just one interview, but many.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>lol.......well put iowejf</p>

<p>why all the hostility i just want some honest chances, if u guys really think i'll b rejected so be it but at least lets wait and see!</p>

<p>u guys all say im arrogant, well ya'll are worse, trust me i see u on CC "what are my chances i hav 2400 AND 4.0 GPA can i get into u rochester and wat about boston college?! "</p>

<p>ok redbirdz i just read this long list of idiots argueing over something so random as the college selection process anyway. Look your scores on tests r amazing and your GPA might hurt but if prove to them that u r ur scores and not ur GPA then ull be fine. I have similar stats with 4 800's and a 790 (Biology ehh!!) and 2180 SAT's (Just retook very easy gettin 2300+) but im a slacker too not as bad as you but still a slacker (3.6-3.8 Gpa). Your chances r fine and everyone else on this thread just answer the question he asked and grow up and stop being jealous of what you cant accomplish </p>

<p>Best of Luck to a Fellow Slacker Genuis , Redbirdz</p>

<p>"u guys all say im arrogant, well ya'll are worse"</p>

<p>The Redbirdz hid parade:</p>

<p>"And I assume CalTech/MIT to be safeties"</p>

<p>"You dont think I will make one of these?
hahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahaha"</p>

<p>"spaceball i am curious please disclose ur stats if u wanna diss others
and some like physics I did zero studying for, science comes naturally to me."</p>

<p>"I knew Newton's laws since I was in 6th grade..."</p>

<p>"I am thrilled to report that Carnegie Melon gave me a recruitment phone call (they have the same chances of snagging me as I do of catching the Loch Ness Monster)"</p>

<p>"I guess I would settle for Duke, but I really wanted to go to a decent school, not one of those second tier types"</p>

<p>"I am expecting to hear back from Harvard/Princeton/Yale/CalTech/MIT and I don't think it will be hard for me to make all 5. If I get rejected by any of them it would be a joke..."</p>

<p>even if he's a troll, he's still got to be a tard on the inside for making a thread like this.</p>

<p>tardtroll .... is that a word ?</p>

<p>Redbirdz, why'd you take so many SAT Subject Tests?</p>

<p>(Try not to reply with a "why not?" ;))</p>

<p>ok ok ok redbirdz. yeah im on your side. and yes i am ridiculous. first:</p>

<p>1)i am impressed by your scores. peeps who dont believe this guy, im sorry, i believe him. what does one have to gain by lying on the internet?</p>

<p>2)i think too many of your replies are criticizing you as a person. why? perhaps cuz they cant find too many any flaws in you academically. Maybe the guy is as good as he sounds.</p>

<p>3)I replied criticizingly to you, cuz you said some stuff that hit close to home to several people. I think i speak for several when i say that maybe you should not pound us into the floor so much.</p>

<p>4)I replied positively to you in private cuz theres no point of me doing it here, it would just get buried by more BS about your arrogance. I AM impressed by your skills, and you might make it to most of your selected schools.</p>

<p>Final advice:
-If you annihilated your interviews, then cool, thats good.
-Please please please do some other non-academic activities. if possible.
-And please back off on the random bursts of adrenaline that are directed personally at us.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Redbird...
u r one of the stupidest dumb***es i have ever come across.</p>

<p>Why would anyone think they would have a chance at getting into harvard with a 3.3</p>

<p>if ur dad isnt the dean, and ur not going to andover, and ur family hasnt donated millions, then u have no chance</p>

<p>3/4 valedictorians get denied from harvard.</p>

<p>and
well
ur fat, and i think u should go roll ur fat self down a hill.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>yeah
why would you ever think that MIT and CIT are safeties.<br>
They are tied with stanford on USNEWS rankings.</p>

<p>And u r dumb
and ur the biggest troll ever.</p>

<p>IM only flaming because you deserve to be flamed...retard...</p>

<p>and test scores arent nearly as important in admissions as grades...</p>
