<p>oh definitely. the 2013 thread ruined the next month and a half for me. Some of their stats were AMAZING and still rejected! Advice for those of you who haven’t read it… DON’T. It will save you countless hours of much needed sleep.</p>
<p>i turned in my umich one already as well. i like the school but it obviously can’t compare (which we can all agree on seeing as we’re ED applicants). </p>
<p>i’m from michigan and i know a lot of kids at umich. i’ve heard it changes you… and not necessarily in a good way. rather, there is a snobbish atmosphere there. i’ve never noticed anything but i grew up on campus… my dad went there and he was a bit nostalgic.</p>
<p>i definitely agree with the whole all over the charts stats… u cud have perfect sat and it wouldnt matter and you could have ok sat scores and get accepted…it makes no sense…oh and im applying to u of chicago =) def my number 2 skool!</p>
<p>I’m applying to UPitt as soon as I get my ACT scores in. I actually really like it there (not as much as Brown, obviously. :D) I hang out in Oakland on their main campus all the time. : ]</p>
<p>Hey guys,
We should all post our stats. Here’s an example from the thread for last year’s ED applicants. </p>

SAT IIs: 700 Biology M 740 Literature
GPA: 3.97
Rank: my school doesn’t rank
Other stats: None that I can think of…
Subjective:
Essays: Worked hard, but I had two typos! Fail. But they were awesome.
Teacher Recs: One was fantastic, don’t know about the other.
Counselor Rec: Don’t know

General Comments: holy crap</p>
<p>Only two published novels? Please. lol lol!</p>
<p>I am! That’s my hook essentially. I write for town publications, smaller national publications, go to writing conferences, and have some poetry published. <em>shurg</em> Don’t think it’s enough to get me in, but hopefully it helps distinguish me a tad.</p>
<p>Hey guys, I’m not an ED applicant but am a Brown RD applicant due to financial reasons. Love the school though, so I hope you dont mind me hijacking. Haha. Tetrisfan, which part of India? I just got back from Bangalore.</p>
