<p>We already have an identical thread, no need to start another</p>

<p>congrats though!</p>

3

<p>It would be nice to have an organized thread of acceptances free of question-posts. You know, to archive the acceptances. Plus, this format is easier to read.</p>

4

<p>Some people just dont want to post twice...there was a thread like this on the michigan link, and it died after like 5 people, cuz another one had already documented it. but w/e, u can try if you want.</p>

<p>Because I'm bored and don't really mind filling out another: </p>

[/ul]Subjective:[ul]
[<em>] Essays: For general admission, one was what I consider 8/10. The other was really quite boring (6/10.) I really hated my honors essay- it didn't say anything, but it was written well because I'm great at grammar and such. (4/10)
[</em>] Teacher Recs: It was all right- my chemistry teacher isn't the best writer, but it got the point across
[<em>] Counselor Rec: I don't think I sent it?
[</em>] Hook (if any): Uhhh. GSA founder at my school and did 1000+ hours of community service?

[<em>] Ethnicity: Half Asian-Indian, half white
[</em>] Gender: Male
[/ul]Other Factors/Hook?: Not really....
General Comments: I honestly have no idea how I got into the Honors Program with my crappy essay, but at least I did. I also got that "Honors Achievement Award," but isn't that automatically given to all honors students OOS?</p>
