<p>johnnyhoward, if you got a 34 ACT, your 2130 SAT is not why you were rejected.</p>
<p>not quite sure how it happened but...
accepted
asian female, public, 3.67 unweighted, 2350 (one take), 3 5s on APs, was a year ahead in math, something like 2240 for SAT IIs, pretty strong performing arts ECs (all-state stuff, studying at well-known schools), generic recs
it might have been my essay. i wrote it in one night and in retrospect, find it terribly written, but teachers and stuff always rave about my writing for some reason so....
sorry this isn't organized. i'm tired and not entirely coherent and wondering what i'm doing on this thing on a late saturday night</p>
<p>congrats!!</p>
<p>i'm going to get my rejection letter on monday most likely. i think williams is the one school i know i have no chance getting into because of its high selectivity. i applied because it never hurts to dream... so congrats to everyone who's been accepted. i live vicariously through you!</p>
<p>ugh..... this is going to be a tough Monday.</p>
<p>^ yeah, all the ivies are out and tufts and the williams decision... monday shall be rather brutal.</p>
<p>CONGRATS to all those who got accepted. Any int'l heard from Williams?</p>

Ya I'm hearing back from my last four colleges that day. Assuming that Williams has already sent it.</p>

[li] Other thoughts: I expected this, didn't really want to go to Williams anyway[/li][/ul]</p>
<p>no offense gadli, but i've heard that anything other than an 800 on teh sat2 chinese will hurt u since if u look on collegeboard the average score obtained on that test is 800....
thats why i didnt take it</p>
<p>afhhgdfhghadf looking at all the highly qualified asian rejectees makes me so sad... my asian rejection is probably gonna be in the mail tmrw</p>
<p>Well theoretically Williams should discriminate less against Asians since they're only about 10% Asian... pretty low compared to its peers with 15-25%.</p>
<p>^^ dont feel bad....im asian with who got in with not outrageously good stats..</p>
<p>now if you are an international student.. then the story gets REAL bad heheh. I think the Williams Record article said about 1500 internationals applied. I can't imagine this school having more than 10% international student population, so even in the best case they will be fighting for approximately 60~70 spots. (accounting for the yield rate)</p>
<p>That's pretty scary :( I'm international and I thought I'd get an email today but I haven't heard anything yet. I'm pretty sure I won't get in though.</p>
<p>eh well... my predictions were pretty accurate.</p>
<p>rejected...
sats: 2230
gpa: 3.92 uw</p>
<p>ton of ec's and some awards but i dont feel like being here much longer</p>
<p>rejected..........i expected it.......good luck to all of you!</p>
<p>are you guys internationals or in the US?'</p>
<p>I'm sorry you got rejected but I'm sure you've got other equally or even more great schools to go to. Good luck with the rest of your schools!</p>
