Judging from the rest of what he wrote I'm guessing it's unweighted... On a different note, Duke came out today. Good results, anybody? | ||

Yeah... things like this. Yet it makes me think: Korean students (and the media) react greatly to even the slightest admission process change of the top universities, and the entire private sector moves along with it. I'm no expert on the matter, but it only makes me sad about the education situation in Korea. EDIT: rejected from Duke. Only two more days... | ||

And how are the acceptance going on so early. Here in Europe it is somewhere in July Your GPA is is your grade point average; in the states your letter grade it a class corresponds with various numbers; the better your grades the higher that number, Basically is the gauge of how well you do in school. The SAT is a standardized test for college bound high school students split into three categories, reading, writing, and math (even though a decent number of colleges couldn't give two shits about the writing section). In each section you can earn anywhere from 200 to 800 points with 500 being the hypothetical apex of the bell curve. It's the measure of how well you stack up against other students across the nation. We get our acceptances so early because we're fucking stupid and like dividing senior year into two parts: one thats very stressful and difficult and the other that's a waste of time that one gives a fuck about because they're already in college. I suppose the real reason is people want to feel settled by the end of there senior year or some shit but really it's I have no idea. Hope that helps. | ||
