<p>would it be better to apply as a 9th grade repeat?</p>
<p>Me thinks 2010 are the most amazing people in the world, but 2011 comes close :p</p>
<p>thanks paula- YOU’LL PROBABLY BE WITH US SO HA!!! in yo’ FACE</p>
<p>@ RiP: it depends on whether or not you’d want to spend 5 years in high school (i wouldnt haha). i mean if you’re born late in the year (like me) it could be advantageous academically and athletically but again, 5 years? hmm…</p>
<p>from an admissions standpoint, idk … most schools have quite a few soph spots open, but a lot of applicants, too. hmm.</p>
<p>the second point is what i was thinking of… for the first point- THERE’S ALWAYS SIMON’S ROCK ;)</p>
<p>Well yeah, but I’ll always have a special place in my heart for Applicants of 2010 that can never be filled -time to sob emotionally</p>
<p>why thank you paula- i am touched <em>tear</em> lol</p>
