[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP - your story just sounds incredible. Why would an elite school care about an A in one semester of one senior class as the supposed make or break decision? At best, sounds like your private school counselor called up a contact at the school to ask why DC got deferred instead of admitted, and was told, it was that B in Calculus or whatever, so the advice from counselor (no matter how they explained it to you) was to make up the grade with an A in Multivariable Calculus first semester senior year (which would make the B in Calculus look like a bygone).... So counselor translated that to "the school called - get an A in math"[/quote] Your assumptons are incorrect. For certain majors, the applications go through a faculty review for coursework. You have to have all A's across the board in rigorous courses to be in the running in addition to high test scores as an academic candidate. It's brutal to be a white male STEM applicant.[/quote]
