<p>^ Good Luck with your decisions Bluelove.</p>

<p>@shahan
Ya but that hasan tahir was rejected by MIT :p</p>
<p>Beaconhouse ALGC</p>
<p>bluelovexD: Either way, the moderating notes regrading inappropriate language is quite fascinating. I didn’t get that. =/</p>

Were you part of the IMO team?</p>
<p>I didn’t participate last year in NSTC. I am participating this year and I have a very good shot of getting selected for the IMO InshAllah.</p>
<p>Waisay,in pakistan ,Can you tell me how to get into the selection process for the IMO and IPO?</p>

The guy who got the Harvard likely letter… do you know what were his stats? Was he the the typical Harvard type?</p>
<p>^All I know about him was that he was a U.S. national.</p>
<p>^^For IPhO, you have to give the NSTC test in January. Then if you’re selected you’ll be invited for camps in October, November etc. For IMO there are two ways, either you give the NSTC or you give the NMO. For the NMO, you give it in November and are invited for the camp in December if you’re selected. Then there are just lots of camps and people get eliminated and the final few are selected.</p>
<p>Last year was epic for Pak Team/ National Champion debaters. Of the 3 members who were A2s, 1 got into HYPS and Dartmouth. The other into Cornell and Oxford. Two other speakers who didn’t make it to the team but spoke at the final of the Nationals both got HYP. This year, too, the 3rd best speaker at Nationals and reserve for the Pak Team got into Stanford EA.</p>
<p>That Ahmar public school thing was done as a joke by a friend of mine. I need not mention his name. It’s pretty obvious what his name is. Also, Harvard likely letters are only sent out for athletes.</p>
<p>bluelovexD, There is a substantial Asian (that includes Pakistani and Indian Americans) and foreign student population at Richmond, that usually has *higher SAT scores * than Whites. Low diversity in this case means fewer minoritiy (Mexican, Puerto Rican and Black) students admitted under Affirmative Action. I am certain most white students can appreciate the difference.</p>
<p>You should contact the international student office and Pakistani student association on campus to find out about the actual number of Pakistani students on campus. Also find out about the size of the Pakistani community in Richmond: </p>

<p>^^ Exactly. That’s what makes this scenario all the more confusing. Was the kid admitted or not?</p>
<p>Also, I don’t think anyone from Beaconhouse Defence got into Stanford.</p>
<p>Umm, I just said it was a joke. There is no such school as Ahmar Public school.</p>
<p>They do send out likely letters to applicants with outstanding non-athletic attributes. Last year, 100 students who were not athletes got likely letters. So, its possible.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This is not true. Plenty of non-athletes get LL’s as well.</p>
