<p>@GuyInBlue</p>

<p>Firstly… you need to change your username… haha :stuck_out_tongue:
But seriously, I know how you feel, I am really really wanting to swim for them (although i am pretty certain that I wont be able to - unless they have a second and third team :stuck_out_tongue: )</p>

<p>@MRU93 - Haha that was a good one xD
Why wont you? I might not be able to play soccer either, since well India isnt all that enthusiastic on soccer training. But oh I could play cricket :O</p>

<p>@Blue
Lets just say I am not built for swimming :expressionless: and right now my times are a second or two off (well my best times…) so unless I can get amazing training and really improve, I probably wont make their 1st team.
Well being both British and South African… how about I join you with the cricket, we can start a cricket club xP won’t be very good with me there though :stuck_out_tongue: I still prefer my Kite Surfing and Diving to land sports :D</p>

<p>MRU93 - Well, practice makes you perfect they say. Failed for me, but might work for you :stuck_out_tongue:
Haha oh yes we could totally do that. B| Our own club. Sounds nice! :D</p>

<p>By the way, are you guys looking for FA too? (Wont matter at Dartmouth but will matter at other schools)</p>

<p>And you? :)</p>

<p>Hey Everybody!! Joining in a bit late it seems. But better late than never!! :p</p>

<p>Country : India
Intended major : Engineering sciences and then the 5yr BE perhaps!! Lets see–
Hobbies/ECs/Whatever : Soccer, MUNing, Debate, Photography, Basketball, Food & Sleep! :p</p>

<p>@guyinblue - Don’t worry. I was checking out the soccer videos - I guess I am close to their standards(atleast the UPenn vs Harvard match that I watched) !!
Have you played any significant tournament or anything??</p>

<p>@MRU93Raith - (that is tooooooo difficult a username! ) , Did you/do you plan to submit the Dartmouth recruiting questionnaire?? </p>

<p>And even though I am from India and play cricket quite well — I don’t really like it, bores me like hell!!</p>

<p>Wow I’m surprised at the number of Indian and British/Commonwealth students on this thread. I thought there would be more East Asian students haha.</p>

<p>Anyways good luck to all!</p>

<p>^ Maybe most of east asians applied ED? Or maybe they are too busy to come on CC? :stuck_out_tongue:
As far as I know more east asian students apply to the USA than Indian & British students!!</p>
