University of Washington SoN Fall 2013

[OBrienMP]

Anyone applying to the UW SoN for fall 2013? Anyone else FREAKING OUT about it like I am?

I did an out of state proctored this morning. Did they disclose a number on how many essays were being done in the auditorium and a number for out of area?

[Brightbulb]

250 were in auditorium and 30 were out of area. they received around 480 application.

I also did an out of area proctor and have to say I think it helped that way. I was calm and felt that the math was simple enough and the scenerios weren't that bad either. I only wish they gave us more pages to write on. I felt like I had so much more to say. I also have the question on how many people were there and if they said how many out of area proctors were being taken.

96 admitted this year as well??

[Brightbulb]

Yes. I never been surrounded by so much competition..lol

But only 280 applications are being considered now, correct?

[Just_keep_swimming]

Yes. I never been surrounded by so much competition..lol

Lol, it was intimidating! When we test for rank, you're in a room of 30-35, that was very intense!

Does anyone know if they automatically let anyone in without doing proctored essay?

The info session said sometimes 5-20, but she stated they had 96 slots available, so maybe no one did this time?

All I can say is YIKES. I guess the good news is it is now out of our hands. The bad news is we have to wait for six to eight weeks!

I was getting pretty annoyed with someone in front of me in line to submit our work - she used the time standing in line to add to her work! What the heck! I looked right at her and said, "That is not very honest!" I hope people like that get disqualified. Is that rude?

So 250 on site proctored essays, 30 off site, and 96 spots......did she say they had 462 applicants this year?

YEESH. I guess I'll sleep very well tonight, now that the fear is gone! :)

Hope you all get accepted! That was intense!

Yeah, I think I heard on this forum that they hardly ever admit anyone automatically anymore.

That's crap! I would of called her out! That's one less person to compete with, ever hear of integrity?!
