<p>btw who else here is applying early decision one or two</p>

22

<p>Wow, nobu, you got a 240 on the PSAT too? I’ve never met any other person with the same score as me before! This is cool! (I wonder how many people got a full score on the PSAT?)</p>

<p>anyway, 4.6/1580/TX</p>

<p>I really hope I can get into the semifinalist stage (although I’m not looking forward to the interviews…blehhh).</p>

23

<p>gfefe, what’s your unweighted GPA?</p>

<p>and, what is an opus account? Also, the online app status still says they have no information for me… :confused:</p>

24

<p>slipstream99 - 4.0/1520/FL
farbdogg71 - 3.4/1450/WA
r2005 - 4.0/1470/GA
sal2005 - 3.83/1320/GA
lasandin’s d - 4.18 (weighted?)/1400/PA
wka1121 - 3.8/1580/AR
ladybajan - 3.9/1240/GA</p>

25

<p>Don’t stress, it takes them a while to update the status of the apps online. So your app might be in already, but they just haven’t updated it.</p>

26

<p>your opus account is your online account to see what is missing</p>

27

<p>It’s nice to see LadyBajan back!</p>

28

<p>Uh oh, I just got a letter from them saying that my application has been processed… BUT
opus shows parent signature, student signature, transcript and counselor rec on the to-do list? I don’t remember having to sign anything, and my counselor told me she sent the letter weeks ago… I’m going to give them a call.</p>

29

<p>If you do the app online, you have to send them a “signature page.” You can download it on the website. No worries.</p>

36

<p>To clarify my D’s GPA it is a 4.71 weighted. Or, I guess, a 4.0 unweighted - not sure how to go from weighted to unweighted. On her report card it just says GPA 4.71.</p>

39

<p>lol wow, im the only applicant west of the mississippi! i wonder if that helps? maybe lol?!?</p>

<p>Sorry gfefe, kind of hard to tell from a sn. I’ve given up trying to phrase sentences in a gender-neutral way and have resorted to “he”. Anyways…the final(?) list:</p>

stgr11 - 4.0/1450/MD</p>

<p>Avg GPA of 3.883 and avg SAT of 1440, both of which are lower than the “typical” scholar of 4.0 and 1500 :(</p>
