Date: July 18th, 2008 3:12 PM Author: Curious shaky site I found out that WUSTL gets its application numbers up by counting a submission of part 1 of the application as a full application. This part 1 page just asks for basic info like name and address and high school and you can submit it for FREE. Because WUSTL spams high school students with admissions materials (each containing a part 1 of the application), this is their strategy to boost their numbers without technically lying. So suspect. They need to count only COMPLETE applications or their numbers are BS. I find their SAT numbers suspect as well; the people at my school I know personally that got in had like a 1210 and an 1190 (though this was in 2006).

In regards to your SAT stories, a) 2 people don't mean squat b) maybe you're from alaska, nd, etc c) maybe they kicked ass in some other ways.
