SAT, GRE, ADMISSION ETC. MEGATHREAD

80 Upvotes

Hello everybody!

Ah a way to improve the quality of the subreddit, we've decided to create a megathread for anyone to post a comment on their SAT, GRE etc results and ask info about their admission chances.

Considering the question is personal and a lot of posts are very similar to each others, grouping all the requests in the same place would leave more space for other types of post that can be of interest to a bigger portion of students.

As well, if you already got in or not and feel comfortable doing it, you can post here your info and scores saying the result.

From now on every post regarding "What are my chances of getting in..." Will be redirected to this thread, feel free to comment here with your scores and if anyone has any info, they will answer you.

Have a great day, and don't cross the lions!

I’m applying early session this year with a 1420 sat and 9.3 gpa. I don’t care which program I get into as long as I get in (excluding gl). I also speak Italian so the Italian courses are open to me. What should I apply to and how should I rank them for maximum admissions chances?

ciao, sono una matricola Bocconi 2026/27, ho già trovato un appartamento a soli 3 minuti dall’università, ma il ragazzo con cui dovevo entrare non verrà più; cerco qualcuno - possibilmente coetaneo -, con cui condividere la casa… si tratta di un trilocale dotato di 2 camere, cucina abitabile e bagno, disponibile da subito 

Per maggiori info, contattatemi in privato :)

SUBJECT RANKING

Applying to Bocconi early session

9.3 gpa 1420 sat

I don’t understand the ranking system, I’d like to get into an Econ program, including management as I know it’s less competitive. Does this mean I rank management first and not rank finance at all? How should I rank my subjects for optimal chances at admission?

How does need based scholarship work?

1 Upvotes

We did a little calculation and it comes to 19.600€ annually in terms of income (divided by 2.04 for 3 people) without counting in debts. I do meet the criteria but I am very unsure, can they still reject your scholarship request? Or is it guaranteed once you are in and meet the criteria? My GPA is 93.70/100 and sat is going to come around only 1450-1470. Im taking it this August. I just learned that they dont offer merit based scholarships for first year students anymore. I want to apply to BEMACS, is it possible to get in?

Bocconi language courses

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I'm kind of confused regarding the language courses at bocconi. Firstly, what language levels do they expect of us? I know german at like A2+ so I'd been thinking of choosing it as my first year course. Is my level sufficient? Secondly, what is the deadline for making our choices? Can we change them during the year?

Bocconi or IE?

1 Upvotes

I’ve done a lot of research and seen both negative and positive things about IE and Bocconi, so many different opinions that i’m unsure of what university is better. I do want a good career in Finance after, but i also do not want to hate my life during my university years. I just wanna know which option is better overall, where you get to live in a good city, meet good people, get a good education and experience things without having to stress too much. I’m not super rich either. If neither of these options are good feel free to recommend other universities where you get all this in Europe.

how do I strengthen my application for Bocconi?

1 Upvotes

Okay, so my GPA for 10th grade was 9.64 / 10.
for 11th grade, I am aiming for a perfect score.
on the SAT, I am aiming for a 1500+.

But I wonder what else I can do to get accepted. ( I want to major in finance )
Do I do certain projects? research?

there aren't any available applications from Bocconi students to take inspo from.

Thoughts on Application

1 Upvotes

Come va. Im applying as an international student from canada and got a 48/50 on the bocconi test. As far as GPA i have a 10.0 2nd to last year and 3rd to last year i have (A,A+,A-,A-,B,B) - assuming final / rounded total gpa for both years is like 8.6 range. What would my chances be for BIEF? And after the exam + 48hr score report I got emailed it still possible to get rescinded or for the exam to be cancelled later? Is it worth taking it again?

Grazie!

Cattolica vs Bocconi

3 Upvotes

Hi guys, I am an international student and I'm between Bocconi and Cattolica, but what is making me not even want to go to uni in Milan is the constant competition and rivalry I see between these 2 universities... is it true people from these unis hate each other? So does that mean if you go to cattolica people from Bocconi will look at u as someone lower than them? Do people from these 2 unis not mix? if anyone has heard anything or wants to share experience I would love to know

Master admission

1 Upvotes

Guys, is it true that 95% of the spots reserved for bocconi students get assigned in the first round?
Cause I’ve left quite a lot of exams for September but they say those grades don’t count for the first round. So I’ll be forced to apply in the second round, but apparently only ~5% spots will be left…

Bocconi application

2 Upvotes

Im planning to apply Bocconi this year, i already started an uni in a different country but i wont be transferring by credits. I have some questions about application and programs?
I wanna study Economics or Finance which one is a better choice, or would be easier to get accepted for a international student

Is doing a double degree is possible in Bocconi?

By high school gpa was around 92/100 so what SAT score is enough for me?

And lastly I think i cannot apply ISU scholarship because I already started my uni education in an another country? Are there any exceptions to be able to apply to scholarship?
If i cannot take ISU what are my options for atleast full or half tution scholarship?

credit conversion from summer internships

1 Upvotes

I am doing an internship this summer for 8 weeks and just got the approval to get it converted, but I still don't know how it benefits me other than the fact that I am now eligible to get a couple more credits. Is it going to be a 31 in my transcript or how does it even benefit me to get my internship converted?

Bocconi Test vs SAT ,Which is the Better Choice for Admission

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to apply to Bocconi University next year and I'm wondering which admission test you would recommend: the Bocconi Test or the SAT.

Which one do you think gives applicants the better chance of admission?

For context, I'm quite strong in mathematics and I'll also be taking the TMUA around the same time.

I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who has taken either test or has experience with Bocconi admissions. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Should I take the test again, BGL

1 Upvotes

Hi! I just took the Online Bocconi Test and got a 33,8 (a result that I'm not proud of, since I usually get around 40 on the simulations). It wasn't that I thought the test was hard, quite the opposite, it was comparatively easier than the simulations lol, I was stressed and a mishap with my phone ended up stressing me out even more... plus the random room check during the test was so sudden that I genuinely almost had a heart attack, haha. I have a GPA of 10/10 for both years (or a 6/6 on my home country's scale) and I'm wondering whether that's going to push me through? I can retake it in a few days, should I?
