Wasn’t this posted before?

First, you are not applying ED to Yale. You should know the difference between ED and SCEA.

Second, what are you expecting forum members will point to as weaknesses? That it took a second sitting to get a 2400? That you only have a 4.0? That your book was published by a small house?

If you’re serious, get a grip and think about it. If you’re not, get a life and have some respect for people’s time.

No, I did not posted this before under the Yale discussion thread.

I know I am not applying ED, and there is a difference between it an SCEA. However I felt when I said that people kinda of got the gist.

I don’t understand, I just was looking for some opinion on my stats other then my guidance counselor who is paid to say nice things.

By the way, I have a life and did not intend to waste anyones time. I just wanted to know if I was a decent applicant.

I am sorry If I offended you in anyway, that was never my intention.

You did not offend me. If all you wanted to know was if you were a decent applicant, yes, you are a decent applicant.

Btw, you said you were serious, but then defended against the non-serious case. If you reread what I said, realize that if you’re serious, you should take a deep breath and relax.

Please don’t apply to Yale unless you can mature and get some perspective.

You seem to have some complex about admiring Pablo Escobar (per your choice of using his image in TWO avatars and your idea to write about him in your essay about “influential people in your life”). I hope you never utter it again, even in jest as it’s completely offensive.
