<p>Being the bigtime journalism school it is, does Nwestern as opposed to other great schools - iviies, wustl, duke, etc…- stress upon high school English grades, verbal SATS, etc??</p>
<p>Depends on your major. For Medill probably yes.</p>
<p>good english grades are pretty important - but good english skills are even more important. these freshman seminars that you have to take are writing and reading-intensive and some are really hard. if you don’t have a good foundation…well…good luck</p>
