<p>I’d apply but I’m sadly not off from school those days and probably won’t be allowed to go. I did apply for Windows on Williams where I am off. If you aren’t off from school on those days and are on another weekend, look into a very similar opportunity at a very similar tiered LAC with Windows on Williams!</p>
<p>I started my pre cal course today. It’s so boring oh my gosh</p>
<p>@collegebound752 Thank you very much! I will definitely apply. 
</p>

I agree with you on the hooks part. When I look at an acceptance results page I usually just go for the general comments. I enjoy reading the advice and feeling the joy that’s clear as day when the student gets accepted. Makes me excited for my acceptance. :-)</p>
<p>It’s been a while since I’ve been on here, but hi guys!!</p>
<p>Hey hey hey</p>
<p>I’m excited for app season to begin but also dreading it because the only people I’ll be able to share my excitement with without getting bitter glares are you guys</p>
<p>Has anything awesome happened this summer for you guys yet? </p>

<p>@jellybae I have the same feeling. I think it’s better to keep your goals and aspirations on the low until you finally reach it and announce it to your classmates. I wish us all the best this fall and winter! </p>
<p>As for the summer, I start my summer program on Sunday. Very excited for that. And I need to relearn chemistry for subject test -.-</p>
<p>“Its better to keep your goals and aspirations on the low until you finally reach it” this is WISDOM. I don’t need anyone’s negativity in my life</p>
<p>Oo oo what subject tests are you taking? :o</p>
<p>I’m definitely taking Math 2 and literature. I’m trying to decide between Physics and Chem. I just finished physics. I don’t really like the class and not to mention it was challenging. Mostly grading wise. </p>
<p>I last had chem sophomore year and I am taking AP chem senior year. I enjoyed it and I’m thinking it shouldn’t be too hard to brush up on the material. Plus it’ll help me for the AP class. </p>
<p>@jellybae idk about excitement, but i’m definitely nervous for app season. Studying for SATs, starting/finishing essays/the common app, summer assignments, work. Maybe its all the things I have to do or the fact that I just got out of school yesterday so my summer is basically only 2 months but i’m still stressed/worried :-S. Btw how did June SATs/SAT Subject Tests go? And when is everyone planning on retaking SATs/SAT Subject Tests? I can’t decide weather I want to take Subject Tests in October or November…</p>
<p>Im officially done with my SATs!! 8->
Well since I’m just applying to state schools, I’m just going to do SAT and ACT.
My plans for the summer are:
Study ACT
Read for AP Lit
Write Common App essay </p>
<p>How do you guys feel about studying and stuff over the summer? Sometimes I get looks when I tell people, but I can’t imagine spending everyday on the couch. I need structure!</p>
<p>I’m not sure if I’m done with the SATs yet. I got a 2070 for this recent SAT which isn’t good enough for the schools I want to apply to. So I’m going to try my luck with the act. If I can get my desired act score in September I’ll never have to take another SAT again :D/ </p>
<p>I am taking subject tests in October though. Specifically Math II, Physics or USH or/and Chem. If my act score doesn’t cut it I’ll take the SAT again in November since I’m confident I can get those last 200 points. </p>
<p>So this summer I’m prepping for the act and subject tests, reading my summer read, volunteering and finishing all that I can for the common app so I don’t feel rushed during school. </p>
<p>I’m with you basic! I need something to do too. My schedule isn’t very hectic it’s just like a regular school year except I get to do things at my own pace and sleep and eat whenever I want to haha</p>
