None</p>

<p>I just need to be born in china to post here right?</p>

<p>er...you can say so...</p>

<p>waitlisted at Harvard, any suggestions what to do to get in? anyone with stats of how many get in from the waiting list?</p>

<p>What are your alternatives?</p>

<p>my alts are actually really good. I got into Dartmouth, Penn, Cornell, Duke, and Brown, but still, I can't resist the Harvard charm, so help?</p>

<p>a suzou girl. probably going 2 caltech</p>

<p>I'd probably just go to Brown. But write a letter, get additional recs, give them updates, try to find out why you got waitlisted. Or better, go to Brown, ^^</p>

<p>haha pearfire, I'm actually leaning towards Dartmouth. why, are U going to Brown next year?</p>

<p>o nvm, i see u are going to Columbia next year</p>

<p>I dunno Darmouth is great if you want the college bubble experience. It was just my personal opinion though. Also, Brown is the hottest Ivy, in case you care about this, :D</p>

<p>brown really? i unno penn has a pretty hot student body this year i hear (and see on facebook) and ppl say that dartmouth has good looking guys too.</p>

<p>Oh I was talking about the girls, ^^... I'm a guy and I don't swing on that side, you know, :D
TBH, you can't go wrong with either of your choices. Are you gonna visit the places?</p>

<p>i think if you're a girl..you should find a school that has relatively ugly grls and hot guys..and if you're a guy..then vice versa..hehe...</p>
