Top 30% at Big10 Midwest. Any shot at NW?

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Jun 11, 2013 2:46 pm

Top 30% at one of Minn / OSU / UIUC / IUB / Iowa / Wisc. Is it even worth applying to Northwestern? I am from Chicago and want to practice there. I know I have no shot at UChi, so Northwestern would probably be the only app I throw out. I just want to know if I should even bother. Thanks.

Do it. Northwestern has dipped pretty far before. Someone transferred from my T2 there a couple of years ago even though he was just above the Top 25%.
