In my @3 yrs here, I have never seen this animosity…take it private now between the two of you.

Both of you are being immature.

Sorry, but aku, the gangsta and a s s wipe comment hurt you from a credibility standpoint. I did not read any post from Euro on this thread that would cause such venom to call them a gangsta or an a s s wipe. He/SHe openly admitted to saying it was a joke at one point, but you continued to attack because they ruffled your feathers.

Now, let’s get back on topic.

akujieze, please respond to why you are asking for a chance when you said:

But the fact that dozens of people have, including college officials and faculty - including those at Yale and Harvard - does mean something.



As great as UMDCP is, it is not UVA, UNCCH or UC Berkely from an academic standpoint. If you are seeing Yale and Harvard as a REACH, UMDCP would be your safety, and UVA or UNCCH would be the match.

You asked to be chanced…to me that means you are unsure if you match. Your Original post shows that fear, because your SAT is 1810…sorry, but as a parent who had a child recruited by UPenn, Stanford, Princeton, Columbia, Cornell, Duke, UNCCH and Notre Dame I am not biting off on the Yale and Harvard comment when you did not break 2000 on the SAT.

You wanted a chance answer, and people have given it, As an IS you should be IN. I will say if you were OOS from NJ or NY, the answer would have been MAYBE, but probably NO, based solely on your SAT scores. Sorry, but that is the truth, your SAT scores will get you in as an IS, but it will not get you into Scholars, Gemstone or Honors IMHO. OOS students have the same wgpa AND score over the 2000 marker.

Again, both of you need to step up to the table and knock off the name calling.
