Pre-College Issues High School Life
61

<p>NO CHILDREN! DO NOT THINK ABOUT COLLEGE!</p>

<p>GO CHASE BUTTERFLIES IN THE FIELDS AND PLAY DUCK, DUCK, GOOSE WHILE YOU STILL CAN!</p>

<p>The SAT, ACT, AP classes and common application will be here sooner than you think. Enjoy your high school lives. Have fun.</p>

<p>Your college tastes will probably change in the next two years, anyhow.</p>

<p>Savor what's left of your childhood. It kind of scares me you're on CC already, but that's cool I guess.</p>

<p>Oh my advice to you is pick something you love to do, and become really good at it, and stick with it for four years. That'll really make you stand out to colleges.</p>

62

<p>lol back in the day my list was something like: </p>

<p>Princeton
MIT
Columbia
Cornell
Duke
UNC</p>

<p>Half of which I didn't even apply to, none of which I'm going to.</p>

63

<p>Stanford is currently #1 on my list, and after that is Harvard and Columbia. But if I don't get into any of those three, I'll apply to Berkeley, UCLA, and UT Austin.</p>

64

<p>considering:</p>

<p>U Dayton
U Chicago
Vanderbilt U
Indiana Southern U</p>

65

<p>Princeton (just for the heck of it)
colleges i could actually get into: UVA (1st choice, my dad was an echols scholar there and i'm in-state), UNC, Johns Hopkins, Cornell, William & Mary, WUSL, UFlorida, Michigan
That list will probably get smaller though.</p>

66

<p>wow..everyone here's already decided huh ;)</p>

67

<p>^ Yep, we most definitely are. ^_^</p>

If you end up getting rejected at these schools down the road, you're gonna kick yourself for being so obsessed with them.

</p>

<p>That's like... "be pessimistic so you'll always be pleasantly surprised rather than optimistic and be disappointed"</p>

<p>Which takes the fun out of life, doncha think? ^^</p>

69

<p>Instate flagship, Stanford- starting to think I want to stay on the west coast, go somewhere sunny^^ </p>

<p>But I really have no idea yet.</p>

70

<p>Just for kicks : HPS</p>

<p>For serious:
JHU/WashU St Louis (First Choices)
UMich
UCBerk
UWashington
Northwestern</p>

71

<p>Class of 2010 here, constantly revising my college list (people tell me I'm thinking too far ahead... but it's impossible for me to do anything otherwise).</p>

<p>In no real order:
Wellesley
Amherst
Williams
Mt. Holyoke
MIT
Michigan--parental request
St. Mary's College--in Notre Dame
Michigan Tech--legacy
WPI
Chicago
Yale--not really so much, and way out of my league--just like MIT. </p>

<p>I'm hoping to major in either biology (particularly in terms of engineering) or history.</p>

72

<p>U. Chicago
St. Johns
Columbia
NYU
Rutgers
U. Michigan
BU
BC
SUNY Stony Brook
SUNY Binghampton
Yale
Princeton
Tufts
George Washington U.
Brown</p>

<p>'11</p>

<p>I plan to go for law.</p>

73

<p>At the moment, unsure. I'll know in about a year.</p>

74

<p>I actually changed my mind; as of now, I will be applying to:</p>

<p>Amherst
Brown
Harvard
Loyola College in Maryland
Santa Clara University
Stanford
UCD
UCLA
UCSD</p>

<p>Rising Junior; '10</p>

75

<p>UNC-CH (in-state), Vanderbilt, Carleton</p>

<p>I dunno after that :P</p>

<p>and I plan to double major in Political Science and Computer Science hooray for related majors! :P</p>

76

<p>MIT, Harvard, Penn, Stanford, Yale, Princeton and Dartmouth are my reaches. But because I'm an international student I don't know what unis are below Ivy League but still very good. So I don't have at the moment any safeties or probable unis to get into.</p>

77

<p>'11er here.
Alright, I'm thinking:
1) Yale
2) Brown
3) Reed
4) Columbia
5) Northwestern
6) UChicago
Maybe Princeton. And, possibly Harvard, just for kicks.
The way that everyone's responding, it looks like it's gonna be grand.
.02% acceptance rates, here we come!</p>

78

<p>'10</p>

<p>harvard, wharton, columbia, princeton, yale, stanford, mit, cornell, uchicago, NYU, rutgers.</p>

<p>I'm pretty pessimistic about my chances though, seeing the extremely qualified people on CC getting rejected from some of those schools. :-/</p>

79

<p>you guys are so on top of things.</p>
