Class of 2011 ED Roster/Thread

<p>So how is everyone doing on apps and such? The deadline is looming--only a little more than a month! I'm pumped though, because we can say we were the last Princeton ED applicants ever! :p</p>

<p>I'm just using the common app. I hope that's okay!</p>

<p>Princeton app--it's not all that much different from the common app and I found that it was easier to deal with. Dunno though. Also, that way they get everything they want.</p>

<p>I am using common app, because I want to streamline the process if I get deferred or rejected and need to submit other applications. I'm planning on filling everything out and getting the applications ready to throw in the mail if I don't get in. I don't want to submit them and lose all that money if I do get in early. </p>

<p>Are you guys doing something similar, or am I just overthinking this whole process?</p>

<p>I'm doing the princeton app, but i'm using the same 500 word essay (on a quote of my choice) for my common app essay, too, under the "any topic" category. It just seems easier this way without all those 50 supplement documents.</p>

<p>do the adcom discriminate against those whose choose" a topic of their own" on the common app? similarly, if i shose my own favorite quote for the supplementary essay, will they consider it as a sign of imcompetence, since i cant write about the topic they give?</p>

<p>no, because it could also show your creativity.</p>

<p>Hey! I've never posted in here before, but I've been lurking around for some time. Nice to meet you all and hopefully we'll all get in. :D</p>

<p>Hey, rotor_bird! I'm glad you decided to join.</p>

<p>Its weird but cool at the same time that about a third of the people on this list will spend the next 4 years going to school together (if past statistics hold true).</p>

<p>wow! a third of this list...that's pretty cool. Hopefully this year it'll be 100% of the list.</p>

<p>Hello Everyone! I, like rotor<em>bird, have been observing for a while and its time to say hi!

<p>...yes I stole this from last year's ED thread...GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!</p>

<p>Like rotor_bird and GettingIn1, I too have been "lurking" for a while, getting more and more excited about the (admittedly remote) possibility of attending Princeton. Nice to meet you all, and cross my fingers that we all get in!!</p>

<p>I hope that Einstein's grandson was a joke. Otherwise, Einstein had a serious jerk for an offspring.</p>

<p>Or maybe I'm just saying that cuz i know he's smarter than me.</p>

<p>first post, figured i might as well jump into the cc circle sice i check princeton forums all the time
best o f luck to everyone</p>
