<p>I thought it would be a good idea for all the AEM prospective students (and current students!) here on CC to gather in this thread and get a feel for the possible AEM class of 2013. We can talk about how we're doing on our applications, help each other out on essay prompts, ask questions, provide information/links, give our stats, or whatever else AEM-related!</p>
<p>well...since only about 100 people are going to be accepted, it should be a positive lol. I was going to apply to AEM, but realized I probably would get rejected so I'm applying to another major I'm interested in at CALS.</p>
<p>Ah well, judging from your previous posts, you seem to have about the same stats as me! (not to mention applying to MANY of the same schools that I am applying to) Now you're getting me worried about getting into AEM. =\ Are you still EDing to CALS?</p>
<p>hey guys..i was interested in applying for aem but i have this dilemma. i was looking at the requirements for it and since its in the college of agriculture and life sciences it requires bio. i have no high school bio because i didnt think i would need it for business/economics. dyou think that admission is still possible?</p>
<p>I don't think it would necessarily affect your admission into CALS, but you would probably have a hard time understanding the material if it's your first time exposed to bio. I'm not the strongest bio student either (didn't take AP Bio) but I took Honors Coordinated Science 2 my sophomore year which is my school's version of Intro to Bio. I wouldn't entirely rule out AEM just because you don't have any Bio background.</p>
<p>Acceptance is based on school/region. That means, the more people are applying from your region/school, the more competitive it is. It does not have direct relationship with how many are applying from the nation as a whole (although the university does have an overall quota).</p>
<p>I'm applying there RD. Gonna major in Applied Economics and Management. I went to a summer program, semi-prestigious (Economics for Leaders) at Cornell this summer..so yeah...</p>
<p>Awesome, I wish I could have gone! I was considering the summer program but another opportunity (fully paid 2-week trip to Korea!) came up. =</p>
<p>In general, how did you like it? How were the dorms? Professors? Campus buildings? Student body (if there were any current Cornell students there over the summer)? Overall atmosphere?</p>
<p>lol trust me there will be a TON of people applying to AEM...it doesn't mean they have to make a post here. There's going to be about 100 spots, and over 10,000 apps.</p>
