Question about Engineering Admissions

<p>I applied to study Engineering and was rejected. On the website it said Princeton recommends that Engineering students take a SAT II in Math and Science. I only took one in math but send them my AP Scores which included a score of a 4 on Physics C E&M and Physics C Mechanics. Do you think I was automatically rejected because I did not take a SAT II in science?</p>

<p>2220 SAT, 750 US History, 730 Math I, 700 Literature, 32 ACT
Internship at Federal Nuclear Research Facilities, two time finalist to ISEF, Siemens-Westinghouse semifinalist, numerous local/regional science fair wins...</p>

<p>I feel like a moron, I probably increased my chances of rejection by tenfold by not taking a science test. Please comment to soothe my aching rejected soul, even if you have to tell me how I f'ed it up bigtime.</p>

<p>Well sorry to say this but it IS pretty much understood that you will have to take at least one science SAT 2 exam to get into engineering at Pton. They even said so on the site, albeit indirectly. Though with your awards and grades you should get anywhere else you applied to.
But nothing to fret about, your life begins after college, not before.</p>

<p>hold on i applied to chemical engineering, and no where in my acceptance package does it say, You have been admitted in to the engineering school or denied either. </p>

<p>Does the poster mean that they were rejected from Princeton University, or simply that they were admitted to Princeton Univerisity but rejected from the engineering school????????????????????????????</p>

<p>Bgrill27 ~ I don't think the SAT II test is what did it. The odds of acceptance for any applicant are very low, as you know. don't beat yourself up over the missing test.</p>

<p>Biz17: The admission decision is made by the university as a whole and thus pertains to the university as a whole. In other words, you either get into Princeton University or nowhere at all. There's no separate engineering school decision.</p>

<p>thank god, because i was beggining to think i wasnt accpeted to the engineering school and that i would be studying mellon cultivation</p>

<p>Haha. Psh, mellon cultivation is for Yalies.</p>

<p>mellon as in carnegie mellon? or melon as in melon? :p</p>

<p>mellon cultivation is the delicate study of producing a wonderful mellon ready to eat from just one seed</p>

<p>This 3 credit course spans a semeseter and starts from seedling and ends with eating. The course is ment for one student to plant, cultivate, caress, and nurture a beutiful mellon fruit. The students gain much more than the important knowledge of cultivation, they are able to parallel their growth with that of a mellon and in the process gain new insights into the development of the mind, body, and soul. The professor in this course has committed himself to ensure that every student leaves his calss with the ability to plant a mellon and follow through with the subsequent cultivation process. Skills acquired include;</p>

<p>Planting and seeding
Moving dirt with bare hands
Using urine as a fertilizer
Waiting
Caressing small mellon seedlings
Using genitals to warm seedlings on cold days
Picking fruits</p>

<p>Upon completion of this course, students may opt to continue their studies and take further courses to complete a BSE in fruit cultivation.</p>

<p>General Sequences</p>

<p>Mellon Culitvation 100 (101H for those entering with AP Fruits credit)
Watermellon cultivation 204
Picking Fruits 311
Caressing and Nurturing: Mellons 430</p>

<p>This has multiple meanings :p.</p>

<p>LOL! :) I was wondering the same thing too, about a school of engineering, etc. I'm glad though, because I haven't decided on my major yet.</p>

<p>Well, at least I got into Duke (which I was very happy for). Have fun guys, congratulations to everyone who got in! It'll be badass.</p>
