WashU waitlist declined

四叶之草
楼主 (文学城)
Kid decided to decline WashU’s waitlist. I asked her under the hypothetical scenario that she were accepted and she needs to choose btn Wellesley and WashU, how would she choose?. Her answer is W. There is her decision to decline the wait list. Anything we are missing here? Thanks!

不去就不去。有那么好的另一家。谁给说说有什么非常强的去WashU的理由?

因为我家的进了。是不是比较鸡肋的学校?

据说,她家premed 非常有竞争力,去top医学院的占多数,但似乎有点cutthroat

Say something you might not like. If my son

made such choice, I would tell him that is not a smart way to made decision for his future career development. Get as much offers as possible and then make a choice. Keeping the offer alive does not cost/risk her anything. my 2 cents.

有言
赞!果断爽利。-:)

被WashU WL不一定是坏消息

也许后面会有更好的消息。

我认为这些排名20左右的私立倒不如去排名40.50的给很多奖学金的私立大学

哪个便宜去哪个吧,反正华大医学院出了名的难读

也不尽然,本来waitlist也没有多大希望再加上washu也不咋地,dump她也是合理的

It is a dangerous mindset.

Imagine everyone has the same mentalitly, then what happens?  It inevitably hurts other applicants' interest , to say the least.

果然是橫掃了

米汤
WashU 毕业生每年包括gap前届共三百多进医学院有一半亚裔

WashU 可能课的学生都是Wellesley 三倍多,但Wellesley 学医的好像不多,每年包括前届进医学院不到五十, 可能Wellesley 选择的学生比较活动多热情外向喜欢政经?

这两个比较难决定,虽然washU 位置差些.

当然WL就算了, off 30人左右希望不大,还要等着抄心,另一边已经开始on board orientation 认识同学.

小孩有偏好能选就好。恭喜!

确实,Wellesley donation participation 50% vs washU 20%

小孩选的不错,恭喜!

喜欢能决断的小孩,可能好的还在后面
