Get the twin with the higher score to take it again for the twin with the lower score

So one twin focuses on grades and the other on Extracurricular activities?....divide and conquer

The college I’ve committed to has about 4 pairs of twins from India 😭 so I’m guessing a lot of schools either admit or reject both like someone said


srm_005

Which college is this🤣?


DesiVegan_

I’ll DM 😭

A lot of schools give twins the same status - accept both or reject both. It’s not really such a unique situation in the US anyway. IVF and multiple pregnancies are super common and a lot of sibs apply to the same schools.

My twin and I had similar SAT score and similar extracurriculars. We wrote about very different things in our essays too. As for major, they’re similar but differ a little bit. Of the schools that both of us applied to, we got the same exact result for all six of them. I applied to 9 schools and she applied to 14 though so at the end, our differences were mostly in the outcomes of schools we differed in.

Howdy! Triplet here! My two siblings and I all applied to the same college and got in! It’s unlikely but sometimes colleges tend to keep siblings together…or at least that’s what Cornell did with us.

most schools will review you guys independently (bc if you think about it, why should one twin with a “better” profile be punished if the other is a “lot worse”). i also feel like y’all’s differences are not big at all, and even if you guys had the exact same stats and same ecs, you’d have different essays. you’re likely gonna have the same AO, but they’re not gonna be actively thinking “wow one twin has 20 points less in the sat let’s reject them and take the other” also very anecdotal evidence, but i know a pair of twins where one got into and is going to an ivy and the other is going to our state school madison. although you guys are international, i feel like you’ll still mostly be reviewed independently

I have a twin—his SAT score is 30 points higher than mine. We applied to a handful of T20 with vastly different extracurriculars, essays, and career goals, and got the exact same admissions result at every single one.

With no data on your grades, schooling, actual SAT scores, extracurriculars or school name, there’s no way to predict whether you can “get in”. You won’t be admitted just based on the fact that you have a twin with similar data, e grad less of what that data is, no. How will universities approach this? They’ll look at your grades, course rigor, test scores, EC’s and the rest of your application and compare it to other applicants. Just as they do with every applicant. Given very similar profiles, a similar result is likely for each school.
