@cici18 I think your profile is great! I’m just hoping you did emphasise enough on your professional plans and current endeavours. Provided you did that, you could have a great chance.
I had good grades throughout freshman year but only took one honers class. Do you guys know if I still have a chance?
@hhnami According to YYGS website, they look at your application holistically. Your essays and Rec letters matters more.
Hi! I got accepted into the BBS program for 2nd session this summer. Is anyone else going at that time, or know what to expect? ( Also is it true there no AC?)
@fishbates do you have insta? I can dm you the link to the whatsapp group (for all the sessions, though I think there’s a gc for session 2 ppl). Yup, there’s no AC and we’re supposed to buy/rent(?) fans, but someone started a petition to get us free fans!
How many here got full financial aid?
That would be awesome, thanks so much! My insta is @hailey_bates21
Requested! Our names are so similar haha
Just accepted it! And haha they are
Has anyone with average grades been accepted to yygs yet?
@neelapeela I think you should define “average grades” 
@geekysandwich our grading systems differ but by average I mean, not straight up A1s and A2s all over. I’ve had 93% in my CBSE Board examination last year and it’s average in comparison to 95%+ which is considered great. This has got me a little worried.
sry ppl! I think I am not gonna attend PLE 1 because of the Launch X. Good Luck to all the waitlist ppl.
Does anyone know when the regular decisions come out?
@tanpuppy7 it comes out march 15! all the dates are listed on their website

Fast take – I would like to have dinner with Adolf Hitler… To learn how he influenced people and get some tips( wrote something like this …not posting the exact due to plagiarism issue :neutral: neutral:
Course --about exploring global issues through a biological perspective
Anxiously waiting for the results… No one from my school has ever applied so not a lot of support from the school …
PS:- I’m not from the well known cities like Bangalore or Mumbai
From a small suburban town
Hope to get selected ##fingerscrossed…
Lol I find it ironic that you wrote your dinner essay on that since this happened a few days ago: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/college-football-coach-suspended-after-saying-he-d-have-dinner-n1124461
I doubt it’ll hurt your application unless you wrote it poorly though
@Harsh227 lol I’m from India too and coincidentally I mentioned I’d like to dine with adolf hitler too!
@neelapeela really ? What did you give as a reason for your choice … Hope that our apps are reviewed by different officers otherwise they are gonna think of the essays as plagiarized ??
