<p>Don't know how to add to your list, but my D is Semifinalist 4.0/1550/AZ</p>

<p>So is it's people's understanding that if you're not in the group of 175 that get 2/3 to full ride, you get nothing? Any scholarships of lesser amount people know about?</p>

<p>Some girl from my grade got into Harvard but didnt make the Emory Scholars first cut. Interesting.</p>

<p>I guess that Harvard and Emory are looking for slightly different attributes. It is quite the conundrum, though, that she didn't at least make this preliminary cut. Is there anything you can think of that would have kept her out? SAT below 1500? GPA on the low side?</p>

<p>Pbar's stats are a little un-nerving. They are excellent. It just goes to show how random and fickle college admissions can be. I wish you the best pbar!</p>

<p>try to make sure you add on to the most recent list; otherwise we lose updates other people have made (like the addition of dhm's d) congrats to everyone who's made it so far - it looks like the next cut is going to be really competitive! for everyone who didn't make it, keep your hopes up because you are all very strong students. Like pbar and GGGUnit's Harvard friend show, the whole process can be a bit random.</p>

<p>=(</p>

<p>Cngratulations to everyone, and all the best in the next rounds.
My D had the exact same stats, 4.2 gpa, (3.9 unweighted), 1590 on the SATs, but was not a semifinalist. What does everyone here think that set them apart? was it the essay? Just curious about e/c's that were unusual or amazing.</p>

<p>im guessing mine was the essay... i dont have THAT stellar stats (3.9 uw, 4.0/4.0w)... theatre and leadership... i was actually surprised i got it. my essay was 'moving' as i have been told, so that might have been it?</p>

<p>add me to the list.... (5.1/5.5)/1510/NY -- semifinalist</p>

<p>12/400 = 3% of all semifinalists have posted in this thread.</p>

<p>so about 1% of the aid should come to us.</p>

<p>Sigh, I wasn't selected. But it was a longshot. Congrats to all of you who made it.</p>
