Yes, you are literally in the top 0.1% of test takers of course you'll have a high chance of admission. Even at HYS, shoot your shot wherever you are interested in attending!
Thanks for the vote of confidence! I don't know, I'm a naturally pessimistic person I guess... Better to be surprised than disappointed
Hello everyone! 7sage calculator/predictor is pretty (overly?) optimistic on my chances for admission in most T14s (except Y/S). Admission odds aside, do I stand a chance of scoring a decent scholarship from some of these schools? I'm scared some of these places will balk at my GPA. Non-URM, 3+ years of corporate work experience, interesting softs.
I had RC- LG- LR. I thought LR (napoleonic wars, art/despair) was really hard. Usually average -2 but felt like I could've easily gone -4/-5 in here, unfortunately. LG (car show, sculptures) felt straightforward, if a bit tricky at times. RC (dark energy, comic strip) felt tough-ish but fair.

I'm a bit confused by this argument because to me it reads like the conclusion is speculating on the means by which meat was preserved (smoking it) as opposed to their reason for creating smokey fires in the first place (nothing to do with the meat). As a result, I was looking for an answer that provided an alternative explanation for how meat was preserved. B seems to strengthen the argument by ruling out that it was heated? Just curious as to how you were clued into that the argument was trying to give a reason for creating smokey fires.

I am sure you will get some amount of money somewhere in the T14 unless you have an awful application. I do not know how much money you will get. I am worse off, 2.5ish GPA (but grad degree with 3.9ish) and with average PT at about 175. I am applying knowing that, as of now, a 177 is probably the realistic best case scenario I can expect. I am hoping to address my RC main point deficiency and that doing some of the curriculum the next few weeks will give me a bit of a consistency bump to LR and make a 178-180 possible. If I exceed, even with the poorer uGPA, I expect schools to offer me some money, though maybe not the money I want. Having been out working for a few years will help. Nailing your application will as well. I would hope you would get at least a few 50% offers if not 75-full. I really hope it is the second, because that would mean I at least have a shot at 75-full. Duke/NU/UVA/UM scholarship dreaming here.
You got this! Best of luck.
