Northwestern HPME Part 1

<p>I don't have the application in front of me, but are you sure it doesn't say the application and acknowledgement cards? Because then, it probably means the acknowledgement cards and the application (if that makes sense). If not though, then I have no idea...</p>

<p>why is there only one SAT date? do we just list out best scores and our last date taken?</p>

<p>i didn't get a card</p>

<p>GPA: 3.61
Rank: 70/549
SAT: 1470
SAT 2s: 800 2c, 770 chem, 740 bio, 730 us
APs: 5 BC, 5 US History, 4 chem</p>

<p>GPA and rank killed me</p>

<p>"i didn't get a card"</p>

<p>did you mean to say you didn't get an application? bcuz you have to send in a request card to receive an application</p>

<p>haha oops</p>

<p>i mean to say app</p>

<p>cello...
i think the acknowledgment card is that indexcard-sized card that came with the application. apparently you're supposed to send it along with your completed app and hpme will send it back to you acknowledging receipt of your app?</p>

<p>would that make sense?</p>

<p>I sent in the hpme card on Tuesday, but I was wondering whether Northwestern sends you a rejection letter if you don't get an application or are you just supposed to assume you didn't qualify if you don't get an application for awhile?</p>

<p>Amoney77:</p>

<p>they send you a rejection letter</p>

<p>wow...i would've thought you'd be well-qualified to get at least the app, aznsnake....yer SAT I's, II's, and AP's seem to be right on target...do they have that strict of a screening in terms of objective data....?</p>

<p>also, if you do get an app, do they still look at yer stats, or just the essays...lol cuz i think that if i did get an app, i'd be at more of an advantage with them just looking at essays rather then stack myself up against some of the powerhouses i've seen on this forum.</p>

<p>yeah i'm with pipinghottofu, I wish they only look at essays after the initial screening, but I'm gonna go ahead and assume that they do look at everything since they have to take it down from ~900 to I think ~150.</p>

<p>.......crap.</p>

<p>hah ya i dont think it would be fair or easy to weed that many people out just based on essays, then it would in some cases be the best writers getting interviews, not necessarily the most qualified applicants</p>

<p>so i have a few questions</p>

<p>do you need to foward your SAT scores from collegeboard to Northwestern or just write down your scores, </p>

<p>and do they refer to the request card after your application has been submitted or thats discardded since its only the inital screengin progess</p>

<p>Official score report must be sent to NW.</p>

<p>Thanks for the response aznsnake</p>

<p>Aspen D, I have a stupid question, do we need to send an official score report with the hpme card by december 1 or after we recieve an application and apply?</p>

<p>Do we have to send the scores to northwestern undergrad office or to the medical school?</p>

<p>Momat-Undergrad office.</p>

<p>I'm not sure when you're supposed to sned ur SAT scores specifically Amoney77.</p>

<p>Well, I sent my HPME request earlier today......how long does it take usually for them to reply?</p>

<p>did you send it online or via snail mail?</p>

<p>I sent mine online and I think I got a reply either the next day or the day after, can't remember which. Anyway, it was pretty fast.</p>

<p>I sent it online. So hopefully I'll get my reply soon also.</p>
