<p>yea thats right…i got into wake forest with a 1280 3.8</p>

<p>to all of you who said that there was no way…go take a hike!</p>

<p>to everyone else who isnt sure whether to apply to a school for your grade…DO IT ANYWAY!</p>

<p>That’s not such a phenomenon. SAT Range is 1260-1410. It was a bit of a reach, but you were still in the interquartile range. Your grades were good, and I’m sure you took challenging classes. Your ECs must have been decent, and perhaps you were a minority.</p>

<p>Actually, it was a bit of a reach considering their average SAT was a 1380 last year. Still, it’s not like SATs are everything. A friend of mine got into JHU with a 1270. </p>

<p>Congrats, Doogie! Do you plan to attend?</p>

<p>I said it was a reach, but it was nothing phenomenal that this person was accepted.</p>

5

<p>Congratulations- can I ask for your stats, location, hook, etc.?
I was rejected 1390/2040 with a 4.0 GPA and no waitlist. And my ECs were amazing…</p>

<p>it is pretty phenomenal when u have sum of the obnoxious a**es on this site basically telling u not to apply</p>

<p>it is pretty phenomenal when u have sum of the obnoxious a**es on this site basically telling u not to apply…like yourself it seems heavenwood</p>

<p>Excuse me? I’m reporting that…</p>

<p>I never said not to apply. I just said it isn’t a phenomenon. You didn’t beat the system. The odds were just a little bit against you.</p>

<p>I didn’t know you had to listen to everyone’s opinions.</p>

10

<p>you are absolutely correct…i didnt</p>

<p>just proves the fact that you cant take many of these people seriously alot of the time…they know next to nothing when it comes to chances…most of them anyway</p>

11

<p>If they know ‘next to nothing,’ then you shouldn’t be telling them to go take a hike, or taking it so personally. What did you expect people to tell you with a 1280 and 3.8, that you’d get in easily? Based on the stats, it was a reach. People get into reaches.</p>

<p>Hopefully you mean a 1280 old SAT. Getting in with a 1280 on the new would be really impressive.</p>

<p>I’m sure he meant 1280 old…</p>
