My brother and I both want to go to the same universities to study Biochemistry on a Pre-med track. We go to different schools and have around the same GPA (mine is 4.4 but his is 4.3). His school is much harder than mine and much more credited since it’s the second best school in the state.
I want to know if colleges usually accept twins in pairs even though one isn’t as qualified as the other one.
Or do they have no issue with accepting one and not the other?
We are both applying to top 25 schools with a couple safety schools.
Each of your applications will be judged on its own merits, easier for the colleges as you are at different schools and presumably do not have identical ECs etc either. So any given college could accept both, one, or neither of you.
I would say that twins have a slight clumping factor. I wouln’t call it a hook, because it could actually be negative. I think it only matters if they are both close to the marginal acceptance. I would say that in your case, it would be even smaller because you already go to two different schools.
