@catswin I have a 2240 and yeah applied aub but not planning to go there.
@catswin A measly 2080 and yes I got into AUB early.
@ETrout1 well that forces me to go to princeton. It’s ok maybe I’ll transfer
@Jado17 thats crazy man! mabrook. i got 2050 and 750 in math, and 31 on act, did aub give u a scholarship of any kind since ur sat is high?
@ETrout1 don’t say that! it’s not measly, be happy about it. where do you think you’ll go? as in where did u sir. and i got similar to u
@catswin Thanks! No, well not yet. I think I have to pay the deposit and even if I do, I was told by older students who got the scholarship that I wouldn’t know about it until mid-August.
@Jado17 where else did you apply? and where else did you get accepted? i got rejected by most of my unis but i got into UCSD
@catswin Lol probably UCLA not sure yet (sired there). I did well in math too (800). Did terrible in the CR section though hahaha.
@catswin I also got in to upenn and georgiatech, was rejected from mit stanford harvard and waitlisted berkeley cornell columbia
I also have two friends from school admitted to UCSD but they chose other unis
@Jado17 are you gonna put urself on the wait list for cornell and columbia? i think out of all your unis that u were accepted to, id choose 1)berkeley 2)columbia 3)upenn 4)cornell 5)princeton then georgia tech, but in general u did amazing man, mabrook! i got rejected to MIT stanford harvard berkeley, i probably should’ve applied to upenn columbia and cornell though, whatever
@Jado17 accepted/waitlisted to
@catswin Thanks! But my ranking of top choices is far from yours. I would definitely take princeton over columbia upenn and cornell for overall prestige and research opportunity as well as network. That’s why if I get admitted to berkeley my only problem would be princeton vs berkeley.
Anw which high school do you go to?
@catswin and do you know of any lebanese students that got in to Stanford or harvard?
@Jado17 nope none, stanford and harvard are unbelievable hard to get into
@Jado17 i don’t live in lebanon, what high school are you in?
@catswin Ahh ok. I’m at Jamhour.
@Jado17 haven’t heard of it, i know about acs and ic though, where is it? and how where the opportunities at school like in terms of extra curriculars? and what were ur essays about, and like ur hook in ur application?
@catswin It’s actually one of the best if not the best school in Lebanon. It’s located near beirut and it had a lot of opportunities regarding extracurricculars such as robotics/programming/sports…
My essays were mainly about my experience with robotics and coding and my passion for music

@Jado17 EECS hands down. People in this thread will say Princeton because it will potentially open one more spot for them. EECS is insanely good and will set you up for life.
Any wait list offers today?
