I can't believe Cael would recruit over Beau like that at 133.
The sarcasm is so think in here I can barely breathe lol
Sweet. This is the one transfer I wanted I thought had a legitimate chance. Fingers crossed.
The reason these guys are transferring, is due to NU grad school. It is highly competitive. I guess the wrestling nerds aren’t quite nerdy enough to be accepted onto their post grad program.
I've seen lots of people get into Harvard and not Penn or Yale. I stopped trying to figure out how all that works. From my talks with kids applying, it seemed like Stanford was always the hardest, people's first choice with Harvard 2.
Basically true...if Cael himself is coming to see you...you are very close to being a Penn State lock.
To be guaranteed a slot in the most prestigious schools you need to check a diverse set of boxes. I check virtually none of them.
This ^^^^^ Have a nephew and nephew in law (married my niece) both have same GPA to the 4th decimal point. 2 points difference in the MCAT scores. Similar hours of volunteering and such. Basically identical candidates. Both applied to med schools. One got 2 interviews and took an offer at a pay to play school. The other got offers at every school applied for and some offers from schools he didn't apply to. One school he didn't apply to gave him tuition and a living allowance stipend to attend medical school. Any guesses on the difference? Hint: Goggles mentioned it above. (Not to say both aren't highly qualified and will be excellent docs in the future.)
