Competition. Please Read and Post

<p>In this thread it would be nice if people posted their Stats meaning EC's, SSAT's, etc. U can chance people if u like but lets stay on topic.</p>

<p>Most importantly, state which school you are applying to grade applying to, and FA or day student.</p>

<p>This way, in anticipation of the decisions we can have an estimate of how we'll do</p>

<p>I’ll go first…</p>

<p>SSAT- 84%
EC’s- black belt,
I have all A’s
I am taking all high school classes, and I am in 8th grade
I am a good soccer player, our team has won several awards and we are ranked nationally
I perform magic tricks, and my interviewer seemed impressed
I play guitar, piano, and I am in my ensemble class
I am in advanced biology, and I take Geometry
I frequently hike and rock climb
I take an entreupeneurs class every Saturday
I have taken 5 years in Indian cultural and language school
I learn Chinese
My Destination Imagination team went to global finals.
In student council
Recommendations should be ok
I wrote great essays also
And my interview was good</p>

<p>Need FA, and I’m a day student. MIDDLESEX!!!</p>

<p>Anyone else???</p>

<p>This is in the wrong forum. It should be in the chances section.</p>

<p>O well… Its here so we might as well keep it alive</p>

<p>Someone already planned on doing this, and on possibly making the “decisions” thread… Which we all know will be a hot topic on M10. </p>

<p>Just save your stats and post them once you have your acceptance and such.</p>

<p>ugh I hate chancing.
seriously.
I posted some stuff about it earlier.
I don’t care to go into specifics.</p>

<p>I guess its how u feel about chancing… I didn’t mean for this to be a hate discussion, but if you like it, go ahead and post. Theres no chancing btw, its just stats</p>

<p>fine. boast if you will
it won’t help you guess your chances</p>

<p>Middlesex, why are you obsessing over your competition. I think that you’ll find that most CCers have 95+ SSAT’s and EC’s that rival most college applicants (not me.) </p>

<p>Also, SSAT’s and EC’s are not the only important components of an application. Teacher Recs, Special interest rec’s, essays, graded essay, interview, and others are more important</p>

<p>Obsessing yes, but only because i’m new this whole boarding school thing, and now i really want to go.</p>

<p>This seems like a “let’s prove I’m better than you” thread.</p>

<p>You sound like a six year old. You’ve already submitted your application. It’s time to take a deep breath and just wait. Not only are you stressing yourself out, you’re stressing other people out.</p>

<p>Haha hockeykid, Middlesex does remind me of a six year old, after drinking five vaults.</p>

<p>People people what his this guy ever done to make you treat him so disrespectfully</p>

<p>Yea guys chill a little bit. Your kind of harsh.</p>

<p>I’m not trying to be disrespectful. He just makes me laugh! In a good way! It is nice to see someone so passionate about something! :)</p>

<p>I guess I misunderstood.</p>

<p>lets all just take a deep breath and chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiill.
stressing will not make anything better!</p>

<p>I guess this has been said but comon guys. The only six year olds are you guys getting angry with him; we are all anxious. If you do not want to participate do not, just help him. I do not think he is trying to make himself feel great or anything to that extent, he just wants to see what our stats are like.</p>

<p>A good portion of the posters here (those who have bashed Middlesex) have posted chances threads on the chances forum, this is not much different. He wants to know his competition, we all feel that it is fine writing down our stats on our thread yet get all catty when others want to do it. </p>

<p>I am not exactly for or against this, but I will post my “stats”</p>

<p>SSAT: Around 93.
Grades: 3.9 (97) Unweight.
Recommendations: Have not seen but all teachers said they were some of the best that they have written.
Extra Curricular:
-Declamation
-Debate Society
-MathCounts
-Problems in Engineering
-Advanced Music Theory
-Viola/Orchestra
-Mock Trial
-Varsity Tennis, Junior Varsity Track, Varsity Cross Country</p>

<p>That’s it I guess. I am not saying this thread has much merit to it, but this is what you wanted… so there.</p>

<p>GPA=4.15 (4.0=straight A’s 4.33=straight A+'s)</p>
