What rank in your class should you be to get into Princeton University in New Jersey?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You should be at or near the top of your class.

It's impossible to be more specific, because admissions is not an exact science. Admissions officers balance and weigh a number of different factors. Moreover, the significance of your class rank depends on where you went to high school. Being near the top of your class in a large school with a good reputation means more than being at the top in a small, unknown school.

What SAT score required for a scholarship?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Unfortunatly, most colleges look at both an SAT score and a GPA requirement for merit scholarships, if they offer any at all. An individual college's financial aid page will give more adequate details on what is available. For example, enrollment in a small private school with an SAT score of 1350 (combined Critical reading and math, not Writing) may result in a more generous offer than a state school or a school with a very high calibur.

What is fraternity and sorority?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Strictly speaking, a fraternity is a "brotherhood." In the United States, on colleges campuses, fraternities are organizations that young men join, in which they live together in a house close to campus - acceptance of a newcomer into a fraternity is frequently dependent on successful completion of "initiation rites," also known as "hazing." Unfortunately, this frequently involves the consumption of massive amounts of alcohol, in fact, one reads about a young man dying of alcohol poisoning at a school almost every year.

Why was the American victory at Yorktown especially important?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Battle of Yorktown was important to the Americans because the American and French soldiers got the British soldiers to surrender which gave the Americans freedom from Britain but, even after that there were little battles because the word hadn't spread fully to everyone because the couldn't just call them and say " Hey Britain surrendered." p.s. To the guy on top that is very imature and if you did "write it code" why would you have commas? If you are going to just mess with people you might as well say " It gave them chocolate." because that still would be a better answer than you pressing random buttons. -SuperDalton101
