<p>Alright, so here's a little game. I'm going to post the stats of two real students in the class of 2011, and where they applied. You guess if they got accepted, waitlisted, or rejected. I'll tell in a bit what the actual results are, I find them pretty surprising.</p>
<p>Applicant One:
Applied to: Oberlin, WashU, GW, American, U of Arizona
3.6 UW GPA, 4.2 W GPA
2070 SAT (770 CR, 650 M, 650 W)
11% class rank
4 AP classes taken
ECs:
2 Years on board of temple youth group
3 years swimming
Held job for 3 years</p>
<p>Applicant Two:
Applied to: Emory, NYU, UPenn, UMD-CP (business programs at all)
3.8 UW GPA, 4.4 W GPA
2040 SAT (I forget the overall breakdown)
5% class rank
7 APs taken
ECs:
Regional board of youth group
Played violin and piano for 12 years
Baseball player</p>
<p>Alright, guess away :) Sorry if the stats are a bit vague, they are of friends of mine so I wrote what I remembered.</p>
<p>I think #1 might have been accepted to Oberlin. The reading SAT is impressive. Although, the mix of schools (uber-liberal Oberlin with somewhat conservative American U) is odd and makes me wonder if Oberlin could tell that #1 might not fit in. </p>
<p>For #2, I'm not sure for NYU. Stern is crazy hard to get into, but the stats are good. Now I'm curious! PM me what they got! :)</p>
