<p>So 9 kids are applying from my school, do I still have a shot. Im above range, I visited (so did 8/9 other kids) but I didnt have an interview. My essays were good IMO. </p>
<p>But 9 kids??!!!! Are we compared against each other? If that sounds bad, 16 kids applied to WUSTL and 8 to Duke. And we only have 182 kids.</p>
<p>I think 9 might be ok...you may be compared against eachother slightly, but if you are all really good applicants, I think you would all have a shot. Like 80 kids out of 400 apply to Harvard, Princeton, etc from my school and we have basically been told we're being compared against eachother because they obviously cannot take that many from one school. I think in comparison, 9 isn't too bad.</p>
<p>relax.. im from canada and therez 25 ppl from my school applying to all ivy leagues as well as nw... and duke i belive.. so.. yeah.. they are all keeners >< so consider yourself lucky</p>
<p>My roommate has 15 classmates here with him. Although his class was like 700 people and is like 20 minutes away from campus, so lots of people always go to NU from his school.</p>
<p>is it new trier dfleish?</p>
<p>yea last year's class from my school had at least 10 (prolly more like 15) people get accepted out of a class of 520ish</p>
<p>no, Glenbrook</p>
<p>i'm from glenbrook (north)</p>
<p>what high school, OSU4me?</p>
<p>If it makes u feel better, my school is about the same size and has approx. 1/3 applying to NU. At least 20 to most of the big and Ivy schools, too.</p>
<p>I believe that almost 100% of the people in the top 10% of my class (about 70 ppl) are applying to Northwestern. From last year's count, about 30 were accepted. I don't know if they compare between students, but they might.</p>
<p>my school has a group of about 15-30 kids that are all pretty much applying to the same schools.</p>
<p>Ok, can you guys please state your high schools and locations? I would like to get an idea of where so many kids are applying from.</p>
<p>Thanks,
-Chris</p>
<p>oh wow...I was the only one from my high school (in New Hampshire). I'm like the second person to have applied to NU in at least 7 years...</p>
<p>No one's even heard of it. Everyone thinks I'm in Boston. (Northeastern)</p>
<p>I suppose that to be fair I do live in Illinois and 45 minutes from Northwestern.</p>
<p>I live in Cincinnati and go to Indian Hill High School
you guys who have 70 kids applying make me feel better</p>
<p>Northwestern accepts about 5% of my high school class every year. No offense, but NU isn't nearly as selective as HYP. It's conceivable that all 9 of you could be accepted.</p>
<p>Could be less this year as the number of applicants reaches record high.</p>
