<p>谢谢楼上再楼上的
but, what do u mean by "four year free"?</p>

<p>such list is very controversial,
you mentioned johns hopkins, cornell, wustl, mit, yale, columbia
i would say.......
johns hopkins, cornell, and wustl appears relatively predictable, given your excellent stats. don't worry too much on standardized tests, your scores are in top range. yale, colombia, mit are unpredictable because they will have many candidates in excellent range...... that's old news</p>

<p>frank w. olin college of engineering is a relatively new college, it is founded in 2001. in order to attract top students, they offer this once a century apple pie. whoever admitted to the school will have four years' tuition and board for free. each year around 120 students admitted i think, check their websites.</p>

<p>frank w. olin is located next to the little famous babson, craddle of entrepreneurs. and 15-20 min walk from wellesley depending you on what you eat before hand, 15 min if you just had 8 once salad and water, 20 min if you had pizza, donuts, soda, milk, burgers.....
frank w. olin campus is really small and in the wealthy community of wellesley, however its students have the advantage of taking courses at babson, wellesley, brandeis.
frank w. olin admission is selective, since it's free and very rare</p>

<p>in my opinions, girls have better chances to get in and receive f.a. or scholarship at engineering schools, and business schools, law schools too i think at graduate level. because of much fewer female candidates.</p>

<p>i don't mean anything unfair about gender. it's just the schools want balanced male and female numbers.
so i would say, you have better chances than male candidates at harvey mudd, caltech, rice, babson(scholarship available), </p>

<p>some colleges wouldn't let candidates choose preferred schools first, so females and males have equal chances.</p>

<p>at upenn(wharton), nyu(stern), there are a large number of asian female candidates, so it's not easy for them compare to male candidates.</p>

<p>if you go to the best private school in ny, especailly a boarding school or a downtown nyc school, i would assume such school has undertable arrangement with top schools in northeatern u.s.</p>

<p>if you go to the best public school in ny, like a magnet one or a nice one on long island, you still have good chance.
so don't worry much......
担米特, i've been posting all day, i'm losing consciousness, don't know what myself is talking</p>

<p>listening to 毛宁's 《涛声依旧》and 《了无牵挂》, pretty cool classics
i heard college students in china adores him, of course i mean in the 90's</p>

<p>can anyone tell me why a lot of young people like 周杰伦?</p>

<p>tangsdaily,you are getting out of control!lol...i'm trying to recall what question you've asked but i really can't remember any of them.
i like jay chou!i think you're quite old fashioned in your taste.no offense or anything.that's cool.very unique.why we like him??hmmm,i love his music,even though he can't sing clearly.you have to admit,he's really talented.he writes most of his songs and writes for others too.there are not a lot of singers like him now really.</p>

<p>oh yeah about lin zhi ling.have no idea why she's so hot.she's not THAT pretty.in fact,they say 2004 is taiwan's li zhi ling year.she's basically in a lot of commericials and rumours.and she just broke her arm while shooting an ad.a lot of my female friends are saying 活该!</p>

<p>dakiyoyo,intro intro!</p>

<p>i watched《17岁不哭》couple weeks ago. And it was great. The 连续剧 tells about the high school's life in china. it reminds me the good time i had in high school when i was in china. (sigh) 现在想想真是怀念呀。</p>

<p>intro-introduction.sorry,two years in singapore has left me with a lot of short forms.they LOVE short forms over there.
why do i have to urge to compete with tangsdaily?the posts,i mean.but i don't think i'll win.he's in another league already.
oh no!!why didn't i know about frank w olin!!oh well,i'm not doing engineering.but must recommend it to my best friend though.</p>

<p>whoa...youknowme,that's really really old.how come everyone all like the old movies and music and tv in china??don't get it.</p>

<p>ok...must give you guys the latest,at least,the not-so-old entertainment news in china.
连续剧:斗鱼(应该很好看,虽然我没看过.我基本上不看连续剧),好想好想谈恋爱(搞笑,但是又很时尚,让人深思,女的比较适合看这个啦),浪漫满屋(韩剧,据说特别可爱),金粉世家,像雾像雨又像风(雾雨风的顺序我不记得啦,反正差不多就这样)
电影:这小子真帅(韩国的,男主角差点把我电死),天下无贼,手机,大腕(眼泪笑得我不停的流,那才叫一个壮观)~~~其实我很少看国内的电影,哦哦还有新警察故事
音乐:推荐人哦,温岚,林俊杰,张韶涵,王菲(寓言和只爱陌生人最好听,我觉得啦),周杰伦(嘿嘿),戴佩妮(创作型女歌手,难得呀!),梁静茹,FIR(是个组合,超级红的),JS(也是个组合)
书:梦里花落知多少(这已经是我第N遍推荐这本书了),零下一度,狼图腾,余秋雨的书其实不错如果你有闲心的话</p>

<p>why are there so many smiley faces and numbers??????</p>

<p>daki, speaking of shanghai, i just had some 鸭肫干 today, good stuff, </p>

<p>vanilla ice, what's even older was 《十六岁花季雨季》,don't remember the correct title, it was made ..... i think around 1990</p>

<p>i also seen two hour cctv4/9 today. uhmn witnessed a lot in china
first, if any of you are in china right now, go across on the zebra lines and go when the traffic light is red. cctv-4 news showed a clip today about a girl being crused to XXXXX on the intersection because she was runnning across the intersection when the traffic light was green and she was not on zebra line while the van flew into her 50km/sec. she's killed instantly
obey traffic rules, in china cars are like bulls</p>

<p>does anyone have the website to download 花季雨季? i have been looking for it since i heard of it. but this is pretty old. i can't even find it on emule. So please share it with me if u have it. thank you.</p>

<p>second,
cctv-4 covers a lot of news topics regarding international affairs that american medias just don't cover.
i like cctv-4/9 in a way that they are not thoroughly commercialized like american tvs which you see car,beer,tampa comercials every 5 min. cctv4 don't put commercials in the middle of tv series and other programs except the one hour news.</p>

<p>downloading tv series is pretty slow on my pc, i try to get 央视版天龙八部,13.65 gb, said to be dvd quality, but the current rate only downloads 3% per night.....
seen 刘一非‘s 王语嫣造型,i just want to drink a million can of pesticide.... 李若彤 is much better to play 王语嫣,小龙女。
央视版的乔峰也很流氓,黄日华演的乔峰真的是气拔云天,
BUT i do think cctv version will do much better fight sequence, and background landscape. 97 hongkong version was mostly laser and underground dynamite</p>
