why dont u retake ur toefl and send thm ur new scores. u get the result within 4 weeks
u just need to do the practice exams a few times to prepare for toefl.

Hi starwars,
I was on the alternate list last year. I reactivated my application in august. I got my acceptance letter on oct. 18th.No, i wasn't interviewed again.

 

[Ann 03]

congrats blr and pallavi
whn did u reactivate ur application blr?

 

[pallavi rakesh]

Thanks..... cutie pie, cleo and Ann,

This has been a long long wait allmost 2 years to hear a YES from the school.Finally i am there. I wish everyone the very best because i know how frustrating waiting can be.So only solution is to wait patiently and improve your scores if need be and improve your resume.

Though for me getting 92 from 82 was the biggest comeback.

thanks once again. And all the best to everyone.

Hi srestha,
I think it is anywhere between 2 weeks till july(including waitlisted )

 

[jay001]

hi i want to know if anyone here is going to attend the class of 2007 advanced standing in bu?

 

[neha]

HI,
Can anyone here tell me how much importance boston gives to your GPA.What should be the minimum GPA . Anybody here with a less gpa but still have got a admission in boston?

 

[Ice2remember]

HI,
My friend had a GPA of just 2.4 and she got in to 2005 batch.

 

[international]

hi idcom , could you tell me if there is people on the 80' in part I or is that true in Bu everybody is on the 90'

Hi,
Bu needs minimum of 85 to apply in part one and they generally take people with more than 90, but there will be one or two with less than 90 in each batch. So, i would rather think that they need 90 than thinking that they do take less than 90.

All the best

 

[zipolen]

First of all: congratulations for all who got the FedEx!!!
Do you,people, know what kind of magnifying loops are required for the BU program? Can you bring your own loops or you must purchase them through the university (like the IBM leptop)?

And again: C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!!!

Thanks

hi i want to know if anyone here is going to attend the class of 2007 advanced standing in bu?

Hi Jay001,

If you read the thread you will see quite a few people did get acceptance now.
I am one of them too 😀
I was interviewed at BU last year and I did not get in, not even on a waiting list. This year I applied again with an improved mark and I got accepted. My Fed Ex letter came on Oct 27th. I could not believe my eyes!!

BU was my primary choice, and I plan to go there still. But why everyone talks about UPenn for specialty? Doesn't BU have an equally good name as UPenn?

Thanks

HI,
My friend had a GPA of just 2.4 and she got in to 2005 batch.

Talking about GPA... I think the way ECE calculates GPA sucks bigtime. In my General report they gave me a 4.0. I was shocked myself... But I thought it was may be a quick way they must have used..since it was a general report.

WES gave me a 3.97 course by course. Now is the anticlimax. I got my ECE course by course done for the BU application and guess how much i got..just 3.24...while a friend of mine who had got only a few marks more than me throughout...got a 3.96. (the only difference between her and me was the time of the year she got her ECE course by course..herz being a few months ahead of mine)

I called up ECE. Told them I was highly disappointed by the way the evaluation was done...(hoping all the while that something can be done to increase it)..I mean just look at the swing from the 4.0 they gave me previously to the 3.24. They said .... they received new information from my Univ in India.. with a new way of grading my marks.

this information has just been recieved and now onwards all the marks will be graded according to that...and also that ECE HAD INACCURATE INFORMATION regarding the grading system in my univ.

I said damn it.. who is at loss.. <I AM>. As the girl who got her evaluation done in april got a higher GPA. and mine is so freaking low simply because I got mine done now....(my general report 4.0 did not matter to them). ECE evaluators say they cant do anything about the reports that were done on "INACCURATE" information they had before this...if ever that girl gets it done again.. the new criteria would be used. I said yah right..as if those people are foolish enough to spend another 135$ with you.

ALL said and done. I sincerely doubt the admissions people know what goes on behind the doors at ECE and WES. Sadly, there is nothing much we can do about it.

God Bless all those who are at the mercy of ECE. (Aarghh!! How I hate them so much!!!)....Ive applied to UPenn, Upitt and BU(havent heard anything as yet... but i applied only in 2 week of Oct..so gotta wait)

Hi Rams,
Thanks!! Yes, it's such a relief to be accepted into BU. I had initially applied with a score of 85-Part I. I then retook my part I and got 91.

Hi Chintu,

To be honest its hard for me to say if they will accept your WES gpa or not... but if you have a copy I think you should send it...atleast that will produce a thought in their head that may be the ECE is grading people lower than WES.
I dont think it will be of any harm sending your WES gpa if its higher then your ECE gpa...

GUd luck with your admissions...
