did your son do anything additional jss2000?

I really hope I get called. I've done so much to try to get into this school. Do you think sending in a certificate for placing second in Districts for tennis and a certificate for placing in the state competition would do much?

SuperChode:

Did you do anything extra? What were your scores/rank/ec? Did they say how many others were taken off as well?

I didn't do anything extra at all. I stopped considering Wash U as a possibility really.

I had a 760/680/770 on the SAT. 3.7 GPA. President of student council, captain of mock trial, model UN, literary magazine, captain of math league.

They didn't say how many others were taken off though.

Well to whoever is interested, I was called back on the 6th. From Maryland. I will not be attending, so I really hope someone else that loves WashU can fill this spot! I also got called from Duke on the 7th, now there...I may attend

*edit* Oh, and I did absolutely no supplementary information (transcripts, letters, etc.) to either

I was talking to someone from the admissions office yesterday. From what I heard it sounds like they have been ranking their waitlist candidates..
