<p>WHOA, SRSLY, NO ONE TOOK THE USERNAME OF NIRVANA? (Until 2007?!)
... CC is in a saaaaaad state. Haha. </p>

<p>Your stats look okay. The GPA is a bit low, imo.</p>

<p>I do have a couple of questions, however...:</p>

<br>


<br>

<p>And yay for yearbook. YEARBOOK NERDS, UNITE! Haha, kinda on a tangent, what programs do you guys use? InDesign? </p>

<p>(I was editor-in-chief of my school's yearbook. I'm proud to say that we sold enough units to cover debts incurred from both the 05-06 and 06-07 books AND be in the green. ;D)</p>

<p>haha, well:
1. For our yearbook staff, we always have CO-editors. so there's two, not one. Just a rule. and then for the clubs, i don't know, they're things my friends and i are starting together, and i can't take full credit for them.
2. I'm HORRIBLE at math. i'd get like a 200 on math 2.
3. i've taken 4 ap's so far, and that's the reason for the bad grades. :/</p>

<p>yeah, yearbook! we use indesign and stuff, but now we use yeartech online. :) and congrats to you on achieving that!</p>

<p>Yeartech... do you guys use Herff Jones? xD; Idk, but I heard that HJ has this sexy new online design program. That's what Yeartech is, right? (And I'm SUPERJEALOUS... though it means no editing until 12:00 AM anymore. :[ And all that stupid stuff that happens at midnight. Seriously. People tend to laugh at everything and mispronounce simple words. And get into fights over the color of Oreos.)</p>

<p>Thanks! xD; That's definitely one of my proudest moments... getting us out of debt. ROFL.</p>

<p>Have you thought about taking SAT classes to up those scores? A lot of my friends did that, and upped their scores that way. You could try one of them for math.</p>

<p>Your grades aren't bad, now that you mention you've taken AP classes. Haha. What's your GPA weighed?</p>

5

<p>nope, not HJ. but yeah, it's really cool not having to do it all on paper and crap...and getting to do pages at home. :)</p>

<p>nah, the classes are WAY overpriced. i don't know, i took the SAT's (both subject tests and the regular) without ANY studying. seriously. so that's why they suck so much. :) next time round i'll actually study.</p>

<p>i don't know weighted. our school is stupid. haha.</p>

<p>What's your UC GPA?
Also, try to raise your SAT I and replace the SAT II Spanish with a math II.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>E.C.s and stuff look great btw</p>

<p>i'm not really sure on uc gpa. i think i'll figure it out on their uc calculator thing today. then i'll get back to you.</p>

<p>thanks dmission!</p>
