Aem ed

Yeah, I'm applying ED to AEM at CALS, too. Jeesh, for a major that starts out being only 90 kids, there sure are a bundle applying.

Stats I guess (But, they make me gag)

SATI CR:630 M:610 W:750 AAHHHH!!!! How awful.
SATII: Take this Saturday
top 10% of 500
(School doesn't rank)

*Took an AEM class this summer. Received an A-. The class average was a B. Professor Rec.
*From Indiana. That's gotta be worth something. Most come from the East.

*I started a landscaping company that became really successful. We make $13,000 per season, so I wrote a pretty good essay about it. We currently have 50 residential and commercial properties that we service, and the company is fully insured. The company's assets include two trucks and thousands of dollars of mowing equipment.

Other things:

Class president of 500 students for three years
Student council president of 2,100 students senior year
Speech Team Captain--Regional champion, state finalist
Mock Trial Team Captain--State-qualified team, two "Best Witness" Awards
Political Campaign Intern--Turned Indiana BLUE, BABY
Volunteer at a local community theatre


Good luck everybody! Hope to see some of you there next year!

I hope no one is relying on ED to get in; ED doesn't have as much weight as most kids think. The ED acceptance rate is just so high because most people that apply ED are actually qualified, and aren't applying just for the heck of it.

Well the courses should be one year long, so they mean 3 years, (ie. Biology, Chemistry, Physics).

If you only took TWO sciences in your four years and it REQUIRES 3 sciences, then you do not fit in.

add me in (NJ COE Comp Sci)
does anybody know how your intended major works into your decision process?
for example, I choose comp sci, but i skipped many of the preliminary school programming classes because i do it mostly on my own. so if i only have ap comp sci now, and did 1 summer java program (which i know means little to them) did picking that major hurt me? i tried to include my personal studies in my essay and resume... but its hard to show the extent to which i have learned.
