Summer Science Program 2017

I would probably cry no matter what result I get. It would be so heartbreaking if I get rejected or waitlisted because that means all I can do for the summer is continue my research at the local university. I’ve spent so much effort on this application(and I’m sure all of you are the same), let’s just hope for the best :slight_smile:

An unrelated question: Does anyone know how to get my thing posted in College Confidential w/o “being approved?” It always takes 2 days for my post to actually show up and I look really awkward among the discussions.

@HappySquirrel I have no idea. My posts always show up automatically. It might just be because you’re a new member. I don’t know.

I’m excited to find out! I hope it comes out today:)

What time do you guys think decisions will come out? I hope it’s soon.

Guys I really want to know my chances of getting in. I’m a junior and I haven’t done any research before but I’ve taken advantage of the science classes I have. I’ve spent a lot of my time engineering in FIRST FTC robotics and wrote about that in some of my essays. I’m applying to biochem.

I have a 4.0 (4.5)
1520 PSAT
1580 SAT
800 Math 2
800 Chem

Thoughts?

you know your stats are good… you have perfect scores on near everything. At this point theres just waiting!

My stats aren’t all that good (1530 SAT, 1470 PSAT, and 740 subject on chem). I’ve done research though and talked about it in my essays. Do I have a chance despite my low scores? Applying to biochem.

your scores aren’t low! those are great scores on all parts and research will be helpful too i’m sure

My scores are a 1300 on the PSAT this year, 1220 last year. I also included for some weird reason that I got a 3 on AP Bio last year. My GPA is a 3.26/3.8. I doubt I’ll get in. I do think, though, that I had strong essays and recommendations.

I applied for Astrophysics, btw.

They prob care more about your passion and your involvement with your ECs than your test scores, as the test scores only show a small bit of who you really are…

@skatergirl27 Probably soon today. If not today, tomorrow…rip

@Cri007 I wish they’d tell us when they’d come out! It’s so nerveracking! Rip us.

@frazzledazzle Haha it’s not like I refresh my email every minute or so…xD

@Cri007 Yeah…I check the website and this every like 5 minutes…Even turned in two tests early to check. This is bad for my heart…

Do you still think the result would come out today??
I am getting frustrated…

I’m starting to think they’re going to come out tomorrow…

That seems most probable…

:confused: If they’re gonna reject me, just do it today pls xD

I’m dying of anticipation…
