@Kova34 I have-
Math HL- 5
Econ HL- 7
Business and management HL-7
English a lit SL -5
ESS-7
French ab - 7
Although I am hoping to get more than 5 in the actual math HL IB tests.
Also, I have a ton of volunteer work and other extracurricular activities.
I hope we both get in too
@Kova34 Not sure how you got rejected from northeastern with those stats.
They must have thought that it was a safety for you.
What major are you applying for?
Guys I have a 42 predicted (6 math HL, 7 physics HL, 6 Chem HL, 7 Italian A SL, 6 English A SL and 7 Econ SL) plus a 1470 superscored in the SAT. Do you think I have a chance of getting in?
Heisenberg1700, there were lots of rejections yesterday for Northeastern…many with very high stats. NU had 62,000 applications. Kind of shocking.
@uni123456789 I think you have a good shot. But I don’t think Northwestern super scores. What do you have on the SAT in a single attempt?
NU had 40,418 applicants.
@Heinsenberg1700 They actually do superscore SAT but do not for the ACT.
@lime20002001 I think he meant Northeastern had 60k apps.
Does anyone know how important SAT subject tests are in the application process? I did pretty well on them and I just want to know if it’s enough to pull me over lol I did ACT + Math I,II+Chem with over 760 for each… will this help me a lot or is it kind of expected for these types of schools?
@heretoparty98 The SAT subject tests are a means of showing colleges what subjects you excel in. Think of them as glitter on a project or the toppings of a cake as they can help you stand out amongst other applicants. Based on your scores, I’d say you should send all of them as they’re all above 750 or the supposed “good” range for SAT subject test review at Tier 1 schools.
@Heisenberg1700 I have a 1370 and a 1420 with 790 in math section. Applying to mecheng. Btw surprised to hear that northeastern rejected so many good candidates: I got in yesterday and some of my friends got in with very low predicted grades…
any one know if decisions could be out today!?
@Heisenberg1700 Econ for me, but like I said we couldn’t choose our classes, would’ve taken Econ HL and Business Management HL too
Did they release a specific date that they will release acceptances? Does anybody know?
@valkyrieee people are guessing that it’s march 16
I wouldn’t be surprised if they came out today. I think that they don’t “superscore” ACT, but they will look at all of the tests you send in.
@chicagomind i have a gut feeling that they’re coming out today but idk
If i have to relate spring break, last year spring break begin on 3/17 Friday and that day decisions were came. This year spring break begins 3/23 so may be a week from now. However there is lots of hype based on last year date 3/17 and it can be today/tomorrow. It is all speculation at this point.
I’m so nervous! I’m gonna be checking this thread all day just to see if they’ve come out yet.
@valkyrieee They might not be out today. Just try to distract yourself and wait for the email whenever it comes. I’m thinking maybe tomorrow?
