Siena…maybe what you said would make sense if Bush won Texas by 98%.
haha…
btw, Prowess,
how long did it take you to prepare for the SAT?( both I and II )
and did you apply for financial aid?
Mainly, yes…but as one of those Texans who live in a rural area (town population of roughly 5,000 in East Texas), I know that there are strong liberals all over Texas.
…and they aren’t just black, either. In case you thought about coming back with that argument as well.
Wow, I’m glad I don’t live in Texas…

Eh, I would post someone’s stats (already posted mine a long time ago), but my brother’s are the only ones I know all of…and 5-year-old results aren’t really helpful.
why is everyone so into other peoples stats? Just worry about yourself, do good in school and get involved in your community thats all…

The UCs weight the SATs very heavily. What were your SAT IIs? Also, what made you choose Davis over the others? (And, if you’re coming here, remember it’s a quiet town and we LIKE it this way!!)
