<p>generic,those EC look quite frightening to me!!! who needs SAT here...not every Darthmouth guy is a SAT perfect scorer.. is he?? I still can't get over your EC ...good job...you have solid chances as far as i am concerned.</p>
<p>thanks.. i really dunno why my SAT got so screwed up.. maybe got a little over confident later on.. December now.. you seem to have gr8 stats urself sailesh6126....</p>
<p>Well, i dunno so much.. i really tried hard to be honest and all.. esp in my essay.. i met a prof from dartmouth and frankly he was pretty impressed... but I really think my SATs are going to sink my ship... unless i do some magic in December... I'm gonna paste that score in my wall now... for inspiration</p>
<p>"northwestern (match) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!really?"</p>
<p>this is just to show myself as optimistic.. heh...with that crappy score i still hope for best..i expect to score high in my next sat .. n then i might be able to apply to nwu as match.. though my present score doesn't even meet its median sat score...moreover, my ecs n grades r pretty fine..</p>
<p>You guys should be aware when applying to Northwestern. They do not take fee waivers.</p>
<p>hey pracs. i'm being honest - ur ECs are mind blowing and ur giving me heart attack my mentioning my collos choice in ur list. But,

I have sung some jingles for some biscuits and Noodles and songs on Children rights. I am not sure if these are worth mentioning.</p>
<p>College
College Quiz team, wasn’t allowed to go beyond top 20 finalist for the college basketball team. Simple reason, a good science student. Nepali mentality.

Haven’t done much. Volunteered in Inter-School Talent Competition organized by the Alumni. Organized donation programs and charity function for Mukti Nepal, a shelter home for orphan and destitute children. Participated in Cycle rallies and work shop on event management and Basic First Aid Training. Will be doing some volunteering in some INGO’s this winter.</p>

Great ones. As everyone else here, my teachers love me too. </p>

This is where I need your help guys. As u have said your Teachers and Friends loved your Essays, I hope your suggestions can help me receive same remarks. I have only been able to sort list some few safeties which I don’t feel like mentioning right now. I don’t think I will be applying to the Big Schools like u guys have. So can u ppl suggest me some good colleges of my reach. Definitely those offering good Financial Aid.</p>
