@ismitah Oh. Didn’t know that at all. I called Emory Admissions about Q1 grades a few weeks ago. Do you think think this is bad?
@pskywalker I’m sorry I don’t know what you mean, what is bad?
@ismitah Do you think they wont like how i contacted them about grades?
@pskywalker no I don’t think that will hurt you. They’re there to help us understand the process and answer our questions. I don’t think the people who answer the phone are admissions counselors (I’m not positive, @bernie12 do you know?) and I think they’re assistants. I’ve called and emailed a few times myself
No, what would upset them is if you called complaining or concerned about the grades you were making. You’re calling about an item that impacts the completion of the app not the quality
Did anybody find the stats for last year’s ED1 results? # accepted, # deferred, #rejected… Or even overall/RD?
@NeuroDude
Emory ED1:
1,253 applicants
478 admitted
Oxford ED1:
453 applicants
184 admitted
Emory released those numbers for class of 2019
Thanks @ismitah, but what about deferred vs. rejected…
Did anyone apply Ed1 to Oxford also??
@pskywalker me!
@NeuroDude I haven’t seen any stats, but naturally, I think colleges try and stay away from lots of defers because, while its not a deny, it’s lengthening the process and putting stress on the applicant.
Hey guys, I just logged on opus and now i have css profile completed, anyone?
@pskywalker I applied ED1 to Oxford too!
@Emorylove732 Yes I got that too
@ismitah fair enough. I was just curious just to see the ratios because they can be very telling about a school.
Too bad there were no blog posts today It is also weird what happened with that Vimeo video. All it said anyway was the day the decisions are released which was already public information and very evident from the constant countdown updates in this forum/discussion.
Guys do you think they’d include my senior q1 in my GPA?
@pskywalker Not too sure, they may add it in when they recalculate your GPA based on their methods. What were your stats?
I got all As Q1, but my GPA before that was around a 3.4 including freshman year. I really bombed freshman year. I got like all Bs and one A. I also heard they don’t count classes like band… is this true?? Also, do they add weight to AP and Honors???
I believe they do. They will recalculate our GPAs counting only the classes they deem countable, i.e. no gym or electives, and they will add their own weights to honors and AP classes. @pskywalker how are your scores and hooks?
Guys less than a week from now we will know…
