<p>WAY TO STEAL SOMEONE ELSE’S POST FROM A FEW MONTHS AGO! </p>

<p>NOT TO MENTION, IT WAS A POST YOU COMMENTED ON!</p>

<p>Calm down. That is my alt account because someone found out my identity on this account, so I had to make a new one. I am re-chancing with more information this time.</p>

<p>Thanks for your concern (though it is kind of creepy that you would recognize the same stats and posts from so long back).</p>

<p>The only problem you might have is getting into MIT or Yale, otherwise you have a solid chance with the origami and amazing test scores.

<p>what the hell do some of you do with your lives, if you can remember posts from 5 months ago?</p>

<p>Anyways, I think your chances are good, should get into at least one, but you just never know with those schools</p>

<p>Why would you comment you need to take sat IIs on your own post then? Honestly just curious</p>

<p>^ I didn’t “remember the post” – but I did accidentally click on the user’s profile and saw they were 19. That’s not immediately a red flag, but most “gifted” people are finished with high school by 18.</p>

<p>User only had 7 posts, so I looked up their history and saw the original thread. </p>

<p>Maybe the commented on the other thread to cover their tracks? But it’s all very…fishy and suspicious. It wouldn’t be the first time people tried to post impressive (but untrue) stats on this board.</p>

<p>Not accusing or anything and I honestly don’t give a damn if it’s real or not – but I did find it…curious.</p>

<p>^ Damage control.</p>
