Rejected ):</p>

<p>sorry rainbow, me too.</p>

<p>I got an acceptance letter, but no email or anything. Is that bad? Should I call them to check if they have my email listed?</p>

<p>Well you’re the only one from public issues that got accepted on here so maybe they’re just not sending out emails…I wouldn’t be worried.</p>

<p>And muppybird2 are you gonna make the gse facebook group?? Cant wait haha</p>

<p>yay i got into sciences.</p>

<p>all NJGSS people should join the facebook group, just search NJGSS.</p>

<p>this is kind of late, but i thought i’d just put some stats for anyone who’s interested</p>

<p>County: Monmouth
GPA: 4.99 (5.6 is max but that would mean that u had all honors/ap classes which is not possible)
Rank: 1
PSAT: 231
Relevent ECs: Shore Science league, Shore math league high scorer, 1st place in school science fair, nj math league, volunteer at the hospital, green club (is that relevent?)
Irrelevent: A bunch. A few leadership positions, work as a tutor, at least 10 school clubs…
Rec: Physics teacher and Pre-cal teacher. Both should ahve been pretty good.
Essays: One about how I want to pursue a career in math and science but with so many options am undecided. (Not as good as I would have liked. Actually thought it was quite weak when rereading)
The scientific discovery essay was about commercial DNA tests and possible effects on society
Race/Gender: Indian
Status: Accepted to sciences</p>

<p>“Relevant.”
10 clubs? Each is twice a month? Seasonal? 10 just seems excessive.
Nice PSAT. I’m noticing a trend here.</p>

<p>Well, like 7 clubs (quite honestly, one or two of which don’t even meet every month but…) and then I included concert/jazz/pit band in that.</p>

<p>So how many clubs are you fully involved in (weekly, in and out of school)? Just curious.</p>

<p>Where are people?!? Come on people reading this, let’s celebrate!! :D</p>

<p>i’m here and celebrating hahaha</p>

<p>Does anyone know of anyone who was accepted to sciences and is not attending?</p>

<p>I’m on the waitlist and I really want to know if I should get my hopes up…</p>
