from the 14022 national exam , we will take a look at the effect of the gpa, the 40% effect of the gpa and the plans to apply more percentages for the coming and future years. was it or was it a decrease? in the name of allah, the merciful, the most merciful, single hello, you see, this year we passed a special exam, almost everything was new for us and for the volunteers , it was held twice for the first time. the first time in diman, the second time in kirmama. this experience was a very successful experience for the volunteers, the difficulty of the work was measured by the organization, but the result was very good for the volunteers. this was a very big difference compared to last year, a very major change that happened, and i think the volunteers welcomed it very special. the elimination of general subjects in the national exam and its transfer to the academic record, which left about 26 definite marks in the general academic record, and we removed these sub-categories this year . this is that the process was very positive, even though there were some shortcomings, both in the fi

details of the 100 national exam, a look at the effect of gpa, 40% effect of gpa and plans to apply more percentage for the coming and future years. mr. dr. pouras from the details of the exam let's start announcing the names of the final 402 candidates . did the participants in the 1402 exam increase or decrease? in the name of allah, the merciful, the merciful, again. you see, this year we passed a special exam. almost everything was new for us and for the volunteers. for the first time, two times were held. the first time was in diman, and the second time was in kiram. but it was a very good result, after that it was a 40% poor academic result, which was definitely held and implemented this year, which was a huge difference. compared to last year, a very major change that happened, and i think that it was very well received internally , was the removal of general subjects in the national exam and its transfer to the previous academic year, which has approximately 26 definitive results in the general academic queue . put. we removed them this year, dear ones, it is easier to choose the

and so we see with his unweighted gpa of a 3.97. so what this tells us is he pretty much got all solid a's in everything he took, but he probably avoided some of the most challenging humanities classes. so that's one indication that we can get from his gpa and yes, i haven't read his application. he's obviously a very brilliant young man. but for universities, like i said, the number one principle they're adhering to is differentiation and so if you think about it, it is very hard to differentiate as a heteronormative asian male from silicon valley interested in computer science. and so what they're doing is they're comparing you against everyone in your demographic or category and picking from there and that's what makes it so challenging. >> so give folks some advice then, right? if that is your category, you can't change a lot of those things about you and you're not going to suddenly choose a different major. that's not what you're interested in. then what do you do? i mean, do you practice goat yoga to differentiate? is it some

your gpa and sat score gpa was 4.42 weighted sat score was 1590. >> okay. >> and in fact, i think we have that on a graphic, just so folks can see that. but in addition to statistics, because we know that's not everything, right, when you're talking about applying to the elite schools, what are some of these coding competitions that you did? well in? yeah. >> so google coding. google code jam is google's annual coding contest. it's for all ages developers all across the world and the semifinals rules require you to pass through two other separate rounds of increasing difficulty in order to reach the semifinals. okay. >> and then mit's battle code. i've heard of that. i know you're creating stuff in a short amount of time and your team came in second, so that's all great. but but in addition to that, you created an app, right ? something i don't know if it's similar to docusign, but it's a signing app. in fact, you're wearing the t shirt. what is that? what did you code? what is this? yes. >> rabbit sign is an unlimited free signing platform. and yeah, you're right. it's very similar

bettina students saw their gpa go down by 1.0, 3, 9, points and indigenous students saw gpa drop of 1.3researchers say they're worried that with racial disparities in their findings because gpa influences students, opportunities going forward. so they recommend that states get rid of expulsion, arie practices and bring in more behavioral and mental health support. >> it's 9.52 and san jose state university wants to partner with public school districts in santa clara county to help teachers have an affordable place to live. the university wants to build developments and use a building that they acquired 2020 to help house their own faculty, staff and graduate students, but also it would be housing for teachers and employees various school districts like san jose unified or alum rock union school district. the plan is for the school districts to sublease rooms from the university. the board president of the milpitas district says it teachers are just unable to manage their housing needs, increased cost of living in the price if they live away for long commutes from the gas. so this could

and you had a 4.4, two weighted gpa and a 15.90 out of 1600 on your sat scores. yet all this and you already told us that you were you know, disappointed, although this is not unique. but what is unique is the next part because then you got this an offer letter from google. yes the google to work for them. what do you do for google? >> i am a software engineer. >> and you got an offer to join them full time? um, yep. okay. so i got to say, that's probably one of the number one things people are asking about based on those comments. how did an 18 year old land a job offer with google? how did it happen? tell us your journey. >> right? yeah, it's a bit of a long story. so i was when i was working on my startup, one of the things that we were pursuing was a case study with with amazon web services or aws. and one of the people i was working with on this case study, uh, reached out and said, hey, you know, i think you're doing some great work if you want to apply for a job at amazon, i'll refer you and so i thought, hey, you know, that's a great opportunity. i'll go

the head of the measurement organization also said in the exam, only academic records and written gpa are criteria for education. in the swaghil test, it is our criterion, which only gives us a test score . in fields where there are only constants without tests, we take into account the final written grade point average. we specially allowed them to do it themselves, but they will not take it for the next year and create the desired training code. according to mr. pourab, medical students do not have any restrictions in choosing their major the booklet comes with full details and is well informed about it. citizens who have a legal residence permit can use insurance services. the general director of insurance and resource acquisition of iran health insurance organization said: these people who have been introduced to the health insurance organization by the ministry of interior can benefit from health insurance coverage and their hospitalization costs in medical centers will be calculated as insurance. jamshid shayanfar added: foreigners can enjoy insurance benefits until their names

a parent emailed me his kid had a 4.0 gpa and one major awards and indeed he got no admission. he ended up going to community college. so seeing that problem, seeing that kind of a situation on again and again makes me even more convinced that stanley's case is not isolated. >> okay. so if that is what you believe, what are you going to do about it now? because i know you've gotten a groundswell of people reaching out to you. and i know when you were here, you both talked about liking to see more transparency in the admissions process. so what are you doing? >> absolutely. i think transparency is the key word that we're emphasizing. and again and again and over the weekend, we organized a volunteer kickoff event. we set up a signup form. so far, already 96 people already volunteered to join the organization. and we laid out nine different aspects of efforts that we want to pursue to. and also yesterday afternoon, there was this organization called alliance for impact. they invited me onto their weekly webinar and the 500 plus people showed up and it was a very interesting discu

in tonight's news interview, we will examine to what extent the 40% effect of gpa on university admissions has contributed to the realization of educational justice . iraq's important step in the process of dollarization by the end of the year deletes the wave of global condemnation against the terrorist attack on the homs officer college in syria. the syrian army's heavy missile response to the positions of terrorists simultaneously with the preparation of 89 martyrs. and the success of knowledge-based elites in designing and producing flying car prototypes. transferring patients, transferring equipment in short distances. these flying cars can be very useful. this news and more at 21 tonight. in the name of allah, the most merciful , the most merciful, may god bless muhammad and the family of muhammad and hasten their fate. hello , welcome to the news section at 21:00. payment of the remaining debt of wheat farmers from tomorrow, the full settlement will be completed by the end of october, the head of the planning and budget organization said that the payment of 10 thousand billion toman

including members of the gpa, but when they voted, if passed unanimously and so i am wondering do we know what change there? >> this was going on for months? and i think what ultimately happened was the city convinced dpa, which has had some affordable housing already being built on some of its sites that this site, the sarona seroni -- and vta agreed -- wants to get people off the streets. >> sure. >> and so the city was able to convince vta that it would be secured. has vta some concerns at -- security measures taken. after all, buses go in and out of this yard for vta to say, hey, this will be secure. this is temporary housing. and this is really necessary to start getting more people off the streets. >> okay. so, they've agreed. what is the next step in this project? >> the next step is a couple of things that have to happen. vta has to convince the federal agency, the -- agency to allow vta to allow the city to lease these under market value. because that's the city's requirement and that would save a lot of money for the city, but also the security plans being put in place. and

high-level documents, which according to the law must be accepted before. with, for example, the balinese gpa he should continue, he shouldn't come, he should take the test for your safety. of course, i have to defend the approved regulations . that's what i did . i sincerely thank the respected opinion of the administrative court of justice . i am humbled by article 9. he agreed to go to the court. well, he went to the court again. the members of the court confirmed their previous decision . we went too far and argued that they also have concerns . their concerns are based on some principles of the constitution . i asked again, my dear parents, sometimes they hold rallies to the end. polite and respectful and personable they say support our children, these children are the capital of the country, their going out and returning may actually harm their mental health, so it is my duty to follow up, and besides the students, they are also my students , for me it doesn't matter, my students according to your statement, this year-long educational process is messed up, for this reason, my request to

have been accepted for college institutions in georgia or university system schools depending on their gpaed and have to enroll but it is a way to reach every child in the state and make sure households know about opportunities for higher education. neil: doesn't matter what the major is? could you break it down? >> a lot of great kids coming out of the university system and technical colleges every year and every quarter. it is one reason we have been named for development magazine for the 10th year in a row from a couple years ago. people came here because of the workforce. we fill those jobs in 2 or 3 years, we need to get a hold of the kids who may not be getting the job training for these good paying jobs with great benefits in georgia and those that are coming, the program is designed to do that. amazing amount of work, when you think of the university system. georgia student finance, the hope scholarship basically people can go to school in georgia and make sure these kids and caregivers know about the options they have to fill workforce needs of the future. stuart: neil: it doesn't

either our technical college institutions in georgia or university system schools depending on their gpanow that they'll get accepted. they still have to enroll. it's a way for us to reach every child in our state and also make sure that the households know about the opportunities that we have here in georgia for higher education. >> neil: does it matter what their major is? can you break it down? >> well, this whole thing, neil -- we have a lot of great kids coming out of the university system and technical college schools every year. it's one of the reasons we've been named the number 1 state for business for the tenth year in a row, which we announced a couple days ago. people are coming here because of our work force. we have so many good projects coming and having jobs of the future that we have to fill those jobs in two or three years. we have to reach out and get ahold of the kids that may not be getting the job training that can get in one of them good paying jobs with great benefits to help the companies that we have here in georgia and those coming. so this program is designed

brian has been thriving in college with a 3.8 gpa.tes his success to the foundation support system by seeing the board members having achieved the success they have. i see that it's possible. i see that it's something that i want for myself. i want to be successful. i want to be able to give back and i want my story to be heard by people. yashida will be graduating next year and may have graduate school in her future. he reminds me a lot of like home and community for sure. and i don't know if there are specific words to thank him, but i appreciate him as a being catalino is retired and now has landscapers care for the backyard he has loved for so many years. but he continues to inspire the foundation that was once a long shot idea in the mind of a gardener from mexico. i can say i'm very, very blessed and very grateful to god for helping us and helping others, because i think we have changed a lot of lives and touched many hearts because i consider them to be like part of my life and like part of the family. and you can really tell h

after we recently met stanley zhang, he told abc7 news anchor kristen sze despite his 4.42 weighted gpa0 sat score 16 of the 18 colleges he applied to rejected him. shortly after, google offered him a full time software engineering job. his story raised some criticism of the college admissions process. and while his case is unusual, education experts say there are other options for students to land a spot at a top college, including getting a two year degree, then transferring. >> students should definitely consider california community colleges, especially their stem major. why many universities are impacted, meaning that they're getting a lot more applicants than they have spots to serve. so this is a great way to start. and students have a better probability of getting to their university of choice by coming through the community colleges. >> counselors remind students that community colleges are also a good deal. they have the lowest mission in the country. next, at 632. bay area restaurants set to close after decades. then google is giving you an up close look at its mountain view

there's some interesting in economics right like if you're above or below a specific cutoff in the gpa, let's say 3.4 versus 3.5, you are allowed to do certain things in of what you study as long as you believe that cut off is pretty random, then you have these people who are quasi randomized to entering economics for a different discipline, and then that allows you to uncover what's the causal effect of studying one thing or the other. yes, of course i like that. you don't like you. you don't dislike. i know. i like. oh, i'll take that. i'll take the day that i like it. all right. yeah. how about. yeah, yeah. how about government? local, state, federal. depending on where live and what the policy of massachusetts versus mississippi be is, you may have a better now, better health care better access to health care, maybe even better payment for your health care. so there's randomness that be addressed politically, but not. yeah, yes. i mean, i would say within economics, the sort of state level policy variation like that's why we're employed like empirical economists are state level, yo

our student athletes outperform our nonstudent athletes in gpa, retention rates and graduation rates. we have many student athlete who is are former olympians, professional athletes, hall of fame coaches but most of athlete goes to successful careers outside of sport. last year just 3.9% of undergraduate student athletes proffered. our annual expense budget is just over $20 million which includes almost half of that which goes towards student financial aid. as you know, many power 5 institutions have budgets ten times as large as ours. our revenue while growing does not equal our expenses. in fact, the university subsidizes our athletic department to the tune of 80% per year. why does the university make this investment? primarily because athletes benefit and are enriched from the experiences they gain from being a student athlete and prepares them to be the leaders of tomorrow. division one athletics also benefits the entire university by creating a more vibrant campus experience and providing national exposure. at st. joe's we are not waiting for ncaa rule to tell us to help protect

so, a lot of organizations use gpa and they think if you got great grades in school, that means you'ree point average is much less useful than grade point trajectory, which is did your grades improve over time. if they did, it's a signal you faced some kind of adversity and learned how to overcome it. >> if your grades dropped at some point and came back, that explains maybe you find out what happened along that path line. but malcolm gladwell wrote about this too. he did this whole thing on how the nhl players in canada all were born in, like, january, december, or february because they decided at aige 5 who's god and who's not. you go through the leepgs that way. but you say there are late bloomers, later developers, and we get it wrong sometimes because we focus all our efforts on who we decide they'll be at 5, 6, 7 years old. >> that hockey data, it is true if you were born earlier in the year you're more likely to make it. but the later births that do make it become more successful on average. on part it seems to be the case they had to be that much better and faced deeper computa

um this week i'll be meeting with gpas award winning audit team in my capacity as our our audit liaison. so look forward to updating my colleagues on how on updates from the audit team as that goes forward. um chief, i wanted to echo, i meant to put myself in the queue and chief supports, but i'll mention it here. i'll echo the same request that commissioner yanez had for an update on on 7.01. i know we had a really tremendous working group with some engaged community members. i see we have our our executive sponsor for that group here today. and deputy chief moran, my favorite executive sponsor. but and so i think that for the commission and for the community, an update on that draft would be much appreciated. and finally, i, i spent some time this week looking at the public comments we received on the status of 9.07. i think is wagner and the league of women voters for raising that as well as mr. cox from the public defender's office, from raising its last week. um, you know, while the commission can't comment on things that are happening in terms of labor negotiations, know that the
