****OFFICIAL Northwestern CLASS OF 2019 Discussion Thread****

<p>@plsacceptme My test scores are also on the lower side (31 act: 34 on math) but my grades are really good so here’s hoping they accept us and add a few more girls to a profession dominated by 80% males.</p>

<p>@alafae‌ Way to ruin a girl’s dreams lol</p>

<p>I’m super nervous about getting in. Can’t stop shaking. My stats aren’t good enough but I have really good essays extra curriculars and recs. </p>

<p>Do you think there’s any chance for someone like me? I went through an insane amount of hardships in high school as well. </p>

<p>hey y’all. I’m on the same boat as all of you guys…
Pretty nervous about it too! stats aren’t as great but a girl can dream right?
good luck to all of you :slight_smile: </p>

<p>@Normalcommunity‌ dont worry! i don’t think there is a person on here who isn’t nervous. It will all work out in the end. No matter what! best of luck though! :)</p>

<p>@ilovemycat‌ Hahahahahahahahaha I love that username. I love mine too</p>

<p>@nopeyverg‌ thanks… I really hope so. It’s just hard to think that way right now. </p>

<p>My cat I mean</p>

<p>@Normalcommunity‌ I know! i am really nervous too…just have to put it all in perspective </p>

<p>does ED help if your extracurriculars aren’t stellar but they exist?</p>

<p>@nopeyverg‌ honestly we are all extremely intelligent people and we are going to do incredible things with our lives no matter where we go. College is such a small step in life. </p>

<p>ED pretty much helps if there’s anything that isn’t stellar. Unless nothing is stellar. </p>

<p>There you go @Normalcommunity‌, downplay a possible rejection like a boss. I’ve been doing the same</p>

<p>@ikadiggit I adopted her last month and she’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me! #ForeverBeingInLoveWithMyCat
And @gkfc13 and ED definitely does help; it gives you a better shot.
and I agree with you @Normalcommunity‌ 100%! If northwestern university accepts me, awesome! if they don’t, hey if they don’t need me, i don’t need them right? :stuck_out_tongue: We will all go far in life no matter what! </p>

<p>@ilovemycat‌ I’ve had mine since I was 4. Holy crap, he’s 13 years old!</p>

<p>What other schools did you guys apply to? Early? Regular? Total? Mine is 4, 12, 29 respectively.</p>

<p>You applied to 29 schools???!!!</p>

<p>@queservva I applied to U Wisconsin, UMich, and Northeastern, all early action</p>

<p>My only other early ones are Villanova and Case Western. </p>
