Tough Admissions Cycle So Far - Thoughts Forum

Below the median at UPenn... between 25th percentile and 50th percentile... more like 3 points. Either way he is a jerk

I was hoping that E.E. meant engineering. 2.66 in Elementary education. Did you ever make it to middle school?

dude, just give it up. Seriously. There is nothing to be won here. Just walk away.

Come on - don't be a spoilsport. I like watching useless arguments on TLS.

Seriously. How else am I supposed to procrastinate?

It was hard for me to keep focused man. I was president of 8 clubs and did 1100 hours of volunteer work. At least I dedicated myself outside of the classroom. Sounds like UVA (a school known for looking beyond numbers and their holistic admissions approach) realized that you SIR did not.

lolwut

Yes, most schools are all about numbers, UVA is not one of them. They have the most legit honest admissions process in the game.

Not a jerk, I'm just a green beret of society's affinity... or whatever it was you said

Though this raises an important question. Is he prince william before or after the tragic hair loss? Because UVA might have taken that into consideration...

You have a 2.7 GPA and your butt buddy has an LSAT that is below the median for UPenn. Guess what. You both suck at life. Why don't you make your own posts rather than pissing on other people. The two of you are entirely bereft of societal utility and should give up on life now. Also, don't post your abysmal admissions statistics if you are going to continue to talk trash about people.

Maybe you got rejected from UVa because they sensed you're the type of person who uses anti-gay slang on the interwebs?

Nicely done, man. Hope you feel manly by keepin' us gay folk down.

btw, I think this slipped by without being properly addressed.

Your homophobia is not welcome here. Perhaps one of those clubs was the local campus chapter OF THE WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH?!

This is a little too fucking convenient William, if that is even your real name.

lol your post is not funny and homophobic comments aren't funny, but you made him look like such a jerk in that post that it becomes funny.

this is why i love TLS drama. a simple question about chances can turn into a hate fest in mere minutes.

This can be found just about on any internet forum.

Volunteer work and group leadership?! That truly is tremendous... I would think at least one of HYS would snag you up with a 174 and such tremendous soft factors.

So harsh.

Eh I think Deuce was just pointing out the ridiculousness of him lauding his tremendous softs and in the next breath bemoaning the fact that (s)he has to talk about himself/herself, because OP hates it soooo much. Seemed like false humility or misplaced pride. Snarky? yeah. Harsh? not by TLS standards.

One of the clubs was an anti gay marriage club. I don't see anything wrong with that , we rallied hard against prop eight in California. I was the leader, I wrote my PS about, about what I did and the evil I was stopping. I don't see how that makes me a homophobe. Being gay is mortal sin, and I will do what it takes to put a stop to homosexual activity.

Dude......ummmm.....I think you might wanna re write that PS. No trolling just straight honest advice. Jeez

dude... at the end of the day u still have a 174/3.65, stop stressing out. I'll see you in morningside heights next fall

Wtf lol. PM?

[Jack Smirks]

Sir William don't listen to these idiots. I knew a girl who had a 160 3.2 who came in here asking the same questions and she received the same sort of feedback that you are. Well you know what, that girl was president of her pre-law society and had almost 200 hours of community service work. She worked with television for the hearing impaired, volunteered with Alcoholics Anonymous AND was a volunteer sheriff on the weekends. Well you know what, that girl ended up at Harvard.

The last I heard she dropped out to go back to volunteering but that's besides the point. The point is, she made it Sir William, and you Sir, can too.

I'm guessing she was a troll or a URM.

Yup. I wrote him to say I was fucking around before and no hard feelings I'm sure his cycle will be just fine. UVA RD is crazy like that, and THAT is what I got as a response.

...oh no. now i can't even decide if i want an acceptance or rejection letter.
