Will there really be a substantial minority in the park avenues? $350 is so much to spend on shoes.sprezz wrote:tree fiddy is what you have to give a loch ness monstah to get a pair of black park avenues.

Re: 2013 UVA OGI Thread
Right, but if you accepted the firms as alternates, I figured KD automatically gave them to you as preselects without checking in if you're under the 23 limit.Anonymous User wrote:The firms do not pick which alternates become preselects.

Didn't mean to offend...though it shouldn't even offend, man. Just completely curious.
Anyway, any chance you can give some pointers? Median here but not nearly as many PS

Re: 2013 UVA OGI Thread
Growing up I was always told 15%, but it seems that 18% is now standard. If you're a particularly good candidate maybe 25%, and large breasts can make it 30%. If you're a bad candidate, I'd say it's possible to get only 10% and if you're dealing with some minority firms who may not be accustomed to our preselect/alternating culture it might be 0% so just be grateful for whatever you get.Anonymous User wrote:What is the likelihood that an alternate turns into a pre-select?Anonymous User wrote:Any movement on alts today?

Do you guys think its worth it to invest in breast implants in order to get the extra 5 percent probability?

Re: 2013 UVA OGI Thread
nobody answered because it's essentially an unanswerable question. you don't know where you are on the alternate list, it's almost completely firm-dependent, and it just depends on the personal choices of the people ahead of you.yngblkgifted wrote:I'm actually very interested in this question.

that being said, it is probably not unreasonable to expect it will be more likely for 'less desirable' firms to go alternate to pre-select than more desirable ones.

S&C was an outlier though because they added more interview slots as opposed to alternates filling the regular preselect spots that were declined.Anonymous User wrote:KD let us know (I don't know how many, everyone was bcc'ed)Anonymous User wrote:How does anyone know if there is movement with alts?Anonymous User wrote:S&CAnonymous User wrote:Any movement on alts today?
