Chance me for Babson class of 2030

When one applies, there’s ALWAYS a chance.

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.

You never know what a school will see vs. a bunch of randos on a 3rd party site.

But you got varying opinions.

Good luck.

Cheers mate! Can’t get accepted if you dont apply…

Remember much will depend on things that are not and should not be shared on a public forum such as essays, LORs, etc. Take your shot. Also glad you have safetys lined up as well.

For anyone who’s interested… A link to a website that compares previous results into a heatmap and how student from my high school have done in the past. (Had to include a few spaces in the link because you cant embed links?)

https:// app.scoir .com/student/colleges/1100059/overview

My high school has the average accepted candidate at a 93 GPA and a 1402 SAT with a 50% acceptance rate and data on some applicants that got in with 89 GPA and 1290 SAT

@tsbna44 I have already submitted my application to Bab a few days ago, do you think I should email my regional admissions counselor about how I recently came across the product I sold in an online business which I planned to feature in my app. but I couldn’t find and i also couldn’t find screenshots of the website or product?

I feel like it could be a way to build more of a connection with the person who’ll be reading my application while also adding another layer of entrepreneurship onto my application. Thoughts?

Average vs My high school ‘‘

Acceptance heatmap from people who applied from my school ,

can you figure out WHICH sport they play by the profile, or whether those scores were submitted?

Yes, but I wouldn’t say that you couldn’t find it. Just a simple, “I’d like to add to my application the following. (See attached.)”

What? Im not sure what you’re getting at by this (tricky double negative…)

No. Or you can do what bill marsh said - add a simple note. But why couldn’t you find b4?

Your gpa is your Achilles heel. You noted your entrepreneurial success already.

So leave alone or write a short, simple note as bill marsh says.

Oh ok. Didnt really catch what mr.Marsh was trying to say. Should I just leave it out altogether or do you recommend i go for it?

I wasnt able to find it because it was hidden deep in my basement, which we cleaned out recently

You have to do what makes you comfortable. I would not but that’s not to say adding it would be wrong. If you add it, you were given simple instructions.

I’m not you.

I also posted on your other thread looking for safeties although earlier in this thread you noted you applied to LSU and others.
