<p>certainly your stats are quite flattering, especially compared to other students accepted EA (myself included!) but I have a feeling that Chicago cares deeply about your essays and not just your line-by-line presentation. If you show them your passion for astronomy as well as your (hopefully) deep musings in response to their wacky questions, I'd say you have a very good shot of getting in.</p>
<p>what other schools are you considering?</p>
<p>haha amykins, if you're curious, you might like to see my response to question #5. I think it matches both of those criteria :p</p>
<p>do you think your better than me with those stats?</p>
<p>Don't you think he's better than you with those stats, esquared?</p>
<p>haha, that's what I was going to say, but he never responded</p>
<p>lol Esquared, I don't know what you're like at all, but I refuse to answer that question :p</p>
<p>well you seem like a nice guy, so you one up me there as well - you're probably sexy too</p>
<p>I'm a hideously disfigured little man who spites competition and mutters insults under his breath, but is really just a coward who would never act because i lack the physical capacity to take on anyone</p>
<p>Wow, you're extremely hard on yourself. I doubt you're as bad as that, and I'm sure you're fine in the eyes of the world. :)</p>
<p>Actually, esquared, I am quite sexy. But they won't know that since apparently there are no interviewers in NYC, Long Island, Westchester, New Jersey, or Connecticut :p And I'm sure you're quite the awesome man ;)</p>
<p>E^2 - now I know you are a writer. Are you a Harlan Ellison fan by any chance?</p>

Doubtful - if you look at the EA thread it is pretty much an auto reject if you don't have at least a 2360 and a top-ten killing disease cure under your belt.

<p>Lies! I got a 2130, but I ended up just sending my ACT scores -- 33. Although I have cured at least 3 forms of cancer by 8th grade.</p>
<p>Where to put the bodies? Two words: biofuel.</p>
<p>actually, ohio_mom I just became officially literate in time for me to complete my U Chi-town application, but I do try to write quite a bit.....</p>
<p>P.S. who's Harlan Ellison? Is he coolicious like myself?</p>
<p>Meta coolicious. One of the scrapiest individuals you will ever encounter:</p>
<p>He writes contemporary and science fiction ... much of it suitable to read while waiting for admissions results.</p>
<p>Are you kidding me? Because of Siemens, you'll probably get the scholarship as well.</p>
<p>yes, I think everyone agrees this guy is good to go</p>
<p>If you write even decent essays you'll probably get money</p>
<p>haha, that's fantastic....I knew I'd never be able to get a job (or any kind of job, if you know what i'm mean...eh?...EH?) at Disney</p>
<p>Good God, I would love to see a Mickey Mouse animated porn feature</p>
<p>esquared</p>
<p>you are possibly the funniest message board person i have yet to encounter...</p>
<p>Why, thank you.</p>
