@"Na-leh2021" said: So the answer to the question is a yes? No one can say for sure... but IMO indication is that it will be another competitive cycle. Lots of factors... medians will be up, but will schools try to sustain (or even increase…

@karko2525 said: I just saw a 180/3.75 that got one single acceptance... UT with no scholarship. It was a fucking mess out there this year. I sincerely hope that the additional (checks volume summary) 2225 extra 170+ scorers this cycle were su…

I mean shooting for 170+ is basically saying get the highest score possible anyway, no?

Most of the conditional logic in this question is a red herring IMO. We can't send spacecraft so if there are sentient beings out there we won't know Assumption: the only way to detect them is spacecraft.

You should be comfortable recognizing the indicators, know what they mean, drawing inferences, and translating conditional statements. For instance if I give you A→B, A→C, you should see both the map and the inference B←s→C immediately. Or that A→…

I just took some classes, giving me recent indication of academic performance, and from the start let the professor know what my intentions were.... had letters secured before the classes even ended. I also was able to reach back out to previous pro…

While providing an alternative explanation could weaken, what you need is a description of why the conclusion does not follow from the premise you are given. Just bc nukes are expensive doesn't mean we can't conclude deterrence worked.

"This game should take you no longer than 5 minutes..." Not so much because he says it... more for your reaction. https://dejpknyizje2n.cloudfront.net/marketplace/products/cute-sad-face-meme-sticker-1541713830.5785706.png I almost miss those days.…

@"Second Language" said: @canihazJD what do you mean by "this cycle"? Are you referring to a 2021 Apps vs 2022 Apps? This application year from Sep '21 - Aug '22

Can I register for CAS / submit my letter of rec requests over the summer if I am out of school and know who I want to write mine... Yes. I know what I want to write in my personal statement, but do I need to tailor it for schools? No, th…

At this point I'd just ask them, especially if deposits have already come and gone. In each of the past two cycles, Ive seen at least a couple people say they straight up never heard back at all. This cycle is so nuts... Yale's got over double its …

If you just ask your questions here, you should get some good info from a wide range of sources. Right now the board still has members who are just finishing an app cycle... some of us for a 2nd time (ahem), as well as admissions consultants that p…

SL → R or DSJC or ADRSA24 My argument is that “, for a period of twenty-four consecutive months” modifies the entire necessary condition. Why?
-
Most does include all but all does not include most, so all would be less supported. Saying at least 51% but possibly all is easier to support than just 100%. Would it still work for this question? There I'd say is where you have to refer to the oth…
-
You're not looking to disprove. The right answer only has to move the needle the most out of the 5 choices. Coincidentally I just went over this question with someone in a session... who is a twin. They automatically threw out D because their first …

@beggarking said: I'm gonna be the one to say yes, you would be crazy. 173 is a fair bet for HYS's medians for next cycle. That 100% extra people who scored a 175+ in the early flex exams are not going to be waiting for next cycle to appl…

@"Na-leh2021" said: If it had said almost all or all scientists would that also be most strongly supported? I think almost all for the purposes of this question is the same as saying most. All is not supported... you'd have to compare it to…
-
You're not assuming who it applies to. It could apply to whoever. You accept just the premise. This is why its a MSS as opposed to a MBT.
-
It's not problematic because it doesn't have to be strongly supported, just the most strongly supported. Nothing brings more recognition than overthrowing conventional wisdom is enough to support B more than any of the other answers, none of which a…

"Each of these three power sources produces considerable environmental damage," meaning dams, coal, and nuclear.

@"Jordan Johnson" said: @canihazJD said: I've used legal sized paper without issue. Mmm, and now we know the real secret to being such a high scorer. 😏 😏 Haha! Caught.
-
@BigJay20 @"giulia.pines" Thanks but really its just that I went through all of this same stuff. I benefitted from other people in the same way, so just trying to do the same for others now.

@"Learned Astronomer" said: @canihazJD @"Hal Incandenza" would you guys mind elaborating on what you mean about 7Sage being the last bastion of empathy or decency? What happened on the other forums? There is a lot of misinformation and worse…

I've used legal sized paper without issue. @theodorebakas15 said: Is this scrap paper provided or must we provide it ourselves? You provide it.

@"Hal Incandenza" said: ...and 7Sage seems like the last bastion of empathy or decency... Concur. Reddit has some good peeps but it's like the wild west out there. Edit: actually the powerscore forums are very well moderated as well. @"…

I was just reading someone's post on reddit about applying with a 180/3.75 this cycle and pulling one single acceptance to UT. I got WL'ed last year as high as CLS with a 158 and got flat out rejected there this year with a 172. Anecdotal, but just …

Whether you can verify it was an official PT or not, I'd stay away from that book. I don't have it saved but I've seen excerpts from it that were outright incorrect.
