<p>Ofcourse I cant say for sure, but your application sure can be darn impressive if you use all the above wisely.
Just make sure that you do justice to the application i.e. do give it sufficient time, and give a lot of thought to your essay.
But I guess I'll probably be meeting you fall 2007. :) Good luck!</p>
<p>wait, so u are taking a gap year right now? , cool, I took one myself, just ensure that you do provide evidence that it did'nt go waste, you will have to write an additional essay writing about the gap year. So do something positive in this year, something constructive.</p>
<p>BTW with those results in A levels and SAT, why dont u try the Ivy League?</p>
<p>thanks umairak88 for all your suggestions...actually I had tried some ivy leagues in my senior year at high school but couldn't get in.....I am hoping the best for IUB though...yes i have written an essay to show that this gap hasn't gone in vain...and it would be my pleasure to meet you..come fall 2007...</p>

<p>Moved my senior year..
Worked as an intern doing research on GPCR proteins at CueBiotech in Chicago</p>
<p>I'm American and I really need scholarships... do I have any shot...</p>
<p>Oh and my essay was about the need for international democracy..I am applying for the International Politics and History Major and that issue meant a lot to me.. It did have quite an anti-socialist streak to it though.. will that hurt?
And as for the interesting thing I put a passage from the Bible about David's second wife...
These are both things that I felt expressed my personality.. were they a bad choice for the application?</p>
<p>hey! do we have to send essay written about the things dat we did in gap year. I applied for round1 and i didn't send anything likedat. :confused:</p>
<p>yeah...porkey...i think for all colleges u need that..not just for iub....</p>
<p>ohh nooo. now i'll be rejected!! :mad:</p>
<p>So does anyone think I will get in???</p>
<p>It's very hard to tell for such a small college that has become so famous; but you do have a shot for sure. She Makes Coffee Nervous Award? hehe.</p>
<p>Admission to IUB isn't certain anymore. I was rejected in June from IUB. Keep in mind that I just got into Brown ED, with essentially the same app.</p>
<p>r u kidding me..rejected by IUB..got into brown ....I am freaking out now....</p>
<p>maybe that had something to do with the round...june= round 3 right?</p>
<p>has someone got explanation for this???....Rejected by IUB...accepted by Brown...with relatively similar apps....I am left speechless.....</p>
<p>Actually round 4 :P
But i had asked them before applying, they said they still have plenty of spaces. And i know people who got in 4th round.
(in case you're wondering..yes, the deadline for round 4 was 1st july, but I sent the app sooner, and they evaluated some earlier)
I really have no idea what went wrong..I put a lot of time and effort into that app. </p>
<p>Anyway, thanks Bremen for rejecting me ! :D</p>
<p>I am freaked up...I don't have brown for my backup as well ...lol......</p>
<p>i am doing round 1...how much will that help me???...plus i am from nepal...and there's a feeling here that others might get or not..nepalese ppl get in bremen easily....is there something of a quota system????</p>
<p>how many Nepalese students are there currently in IUB??...just a rough answer...few or many???</p>
<p>Oh my goodness.. got into Brown but not UIB.. I am dead... so much for my scholarship dreams..
She Makes Coffee Nervous was pretty much for my assistant director position.. bc the director was pretty much a moron and I had to do everything.. I am kind of a go getter...
it is pretty funny though..</p>
