<p>wondering if any1 applied for honors business?</p>
<p>no one? :(</p>
<p>well i didnt but im a business major at mays</p>
<p>Oh y haven't u?</p>
<p>I applied for business honors, they say you'll hear back late January/early February. Fingers crossed!</p>
<p>Same here! I am rely rely nervous tho! I heard its pretty hard 2 get into.....any comments on that?</p>
<p>My Bro was accepted off the wait list (last slot according to the director) into business honors last year.
he had 1450 SAT, 13% or so at very competitive HS, IB, strong business related EC's.
It is the most exclusive program at TAMU.</p>
<p>WOW, impressive....when was he accepted? Jan/feb or later on? I am just so worried about getting in!! heres my stats if sum1 is interested....TOP 7%, 29 ACT, good ECs, & good Teacher Recs.</p>
<p>btw Modernchem, hows ur bro liking the program?</p>
<p>He absolutely loves it. They get 1st pick of classes, it is a small program within a big school, and he says that about once a week a company will come in and give a lecture and a free lunch to the honors business kids, among other perks. also honors business kids are required to major in "business honors" which is like business administration as well as a 2nd major in another business related field. There is also an opportunity to earn an MBA in 4 or 5 years thru mays if you are in honors business but I dont know much about that.
He also says that he could see where he wouldn't like a&m if he wasnt in the program because it is such a big school (even the general honors program is huge). I wish they had engineering honors for me :(</p>
<p>haha lol. Wow, thx modernchem for that great info. Now, I rely wanna get in2 the program.</p>
<p>damn thats some good stats... hope seems kinda dim for me... errr</p>
<p>LOL Nahh dude....Even my chances seem dim....I am scared as heck.</p>
<p>has any1 received their letter yet? :(</p>
<p>I received a letter last week saying that I am in the final review pool for the decision and that the decision will be mailed by March 1st. I emailed them asking if I am being waitlisted, but they said that all it means is that I made it to the final round of review... so hopefully yes!</p>
<p>final review pool? wat does that mean? cuz they said I was in the pool this thrusday....so I am not sure....so if u don't get selected, are u still in the pool or are u out?</p>
<p>btw, ur stats? and since ur almost in, gotta see if I can make it :(</p>
<p>My stats are not so good..</p>
<p>SAT: 1340/2020
rank: 12%
taken/taking a total of 10 AP classes, passed all I've taken
made it to state for BPA competition, vice-president of DECA at my school</p>
<p>anything else?</p>
<p>haha dude those stats are honestly pretty good....ur SAT scores kinda covers ur class rank. In my case, my class rank covers my ACT scores :). We are in the same boat here :D</p>
<p>hopefully so!! My friend last year applied and he said that they told him they didn't consider anyone below 1400 on SAT, because there was SO many applicants last year (given that the class of 08 was the biggest class ever). Hopefully this year will be better! lets hope we both get in and we can meet up in there =)</p>
