[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nephew: Waitlisted: UVA Rejected: JMU, W&L, UMD, GMU, UMich, OSU, LSU, Florida Accepted: UPenn and BU His scores and grades were better than his sisters and she was a Jr at UVA at the time. Go figure! [/quote] Accepted to an Ivy but flat out rejected from George Mason? Was his application there late or incomplete or something? I know people (20 years ago of course) who went ot George Mason from my FCPS high school and they were.... not top students. No AP classes, no GT classes (or AAP or whatever they call them now if not GT), got a bunch of Bs in a bunch of non advanced classes basically, and no leadership/ EC stuff. [/quote] 20 years ago is night and day from today. I wouldn’t have gotten into the school that I attended and I graduated HS in 2001. That said, I’m guessing this kid half assed their essay.[/quote]
