<p>how many ppl get the wilder thing, because that's what I got but compared to mrs. 2400, i don't look up to par... there must be something else about me that's really sweet... maybe it's because i'm a twinkie and not ur "average asian" haha.. i dunno anyone's thought?</p>
<p>i thought wilder was like either u get it or u dont.. my brother got it and he was a total slacker.. 3.45 weighted GPA, but he had a 1530 SAT so i guess they just have some kinda formula or something.</p>
