@MintFresh28 congrats! was this for a professor you expressed interest for in your application, or is this a professor that already signed a letter of commitment for you?
@cougar123 @4beardolls Thank you so much guys! We still don’t know yet though. But I’m sure that you guys will get the same letter fairly soon! My letter was for a professor I showed interest in in my application
@MintFresh28 What are your stats?
I’m just a normal AP student, and I have done a few science and math olympiads, but I think my previous research experience at Caltech last summer really helped my application.
@MintFresh28 I did research at Caltech this past summer as well, but have yet to hear back. What did you study?
Last year the decision was out on 3/17, do you guys think the decision will come out within these days?
oooh that might be the case
how did you guys get the opportunity to do research at caltech?
Yeah do you guys live near caltech? I wish I could do research outside of the uni I live near but I don’t know how I would swing that.
anyone hear back yet?
I’m so anxious to hear from simons
Any use in updating simons with most recent trimester grades?
I sent in my most recent transcript, because my old one had my sucky class rank and no junior year info, but the situation may be different for you @mochilate1897
if your previous transcript has As or A- in the science classes, don’t bother
would a screenshot of my online transcript/report card suffice?
Do you think its too late since decisions are probably being finalized right now?
Screenshots will suffice
I doubt the recent transcript would change the decision of the admissions committee
my advice is to chill until decisions are out
good luck everyone
That’s true, I’ll probably lay off. What I wanted to update them on is that, 1st trimester I got a B in Calc BC (A’s in my other 4 APs, including chem) but this trimester I managed to get all A’s in all 5 AP classes. Doubt that it would change much, as you all have said.
Last year decisions came out on a tuesday. Hopefully that means that tomorrow will be the day.
Hope today is the day :-*
