did you get any B’s during high school?

Will there be any OOS L&S offers this week?

Did you take physics at all? Our school requires it to graduate.

didn’t take regular physics but my school accepts ap physics as part of the physical science requirement

i am v similar to you except i didn’t report my grades since i ended up getting a c :sob: but i updated quite a few extracurricular and awards and hoping they don’t look too much into why i didnt mention grades :sob::sob:

Just to be clear–do different combinations of categories come out in waves?

e.g. would In state, L&S waitlist offers come in a single wave? Or is it more random?

Congrats! R u international or domestic?

L&S (English). she will not be accepting the offer because she also just got off the NYU waitlist and that is her first choice. So it will open up a spot.

Congrats, I got off the NYU waitlist as-well, but UCLA is my dream school, did your daughter get a email for UCLA?
