<p>Hey guys 
sorry if I’m kinda out of topic ( can you say that lol ? ) But I had the possibility of creating a non profit organization with a high school teacher ( looong story ) to help poor children , do you think that would increase my chances to get into a good college ? Like ec I mean :)</p>
<p>@Keya - No… that was a mistake made by me!!</p>
<p>You need to pipette out Mohr’s salt only!! 
I took KMnO4 the first time by mistake… and then got it in my mouth cause the guy beside me stared at me!! :p</p>
<p>Don’t worry - even the 15ml one - if you get a curved graph - that’s enough!! :D</p>
<p>No I applied regular, though Drexel releases decisions on a rolling basis! :)</p>
<p>I did a bit of Karate too… but stopped just short of brown belt!! :p</p>
<p>@Quiver - Haha!! Where??
So we’ll have a bout if we meet?? :p</p>
<p>@Rishav
Same sort of category… self propelled water craft using paddles? 
Yea I suppose they are about the same category - still very different feeling though (loads of fun btw)</p>
<p>@Keya
Also did karate though I ad to stop since my sensei left 
I was doing Ryu Ky Kobojitsu and was one test away from black belt (I could have done it, but I moved further away, hadn’t practiced properly for a while… a whole bunch of reasons unfortunately 
) I kinda miss it…</p>
<p>I don’t miss Karate… It was boring!! I left it in 5th Std. :p</p>
<p>Though I did break a glass plate & tile with my fore head on our sports day once!! The only awesome thing I remember from Karate!! :p</p>

I think if you have the chance do it… not just for college, but it is good for yourself (if you are really interested in it). I don’t know if it will increase your chances, but if it makes a difference it might be worth while to mention to the unis.</p>
<p>@Rishav
We never broke anything… for us it was a martial art… ie an art form developed for self defence purposes.
We had sparring sessions though that were fun… but no braking boards or anything like that.</p>
<p>@Penny-- I second what Raith said!! :)</p>
<p>@Rishav --Boxing at Kanteerva :)You??</p>
<p>@Raith - Nah man, I had Karate-do … don’t quite remember what it was about!
Something organised by the United Karate Budokan Club!!</p>
<p>Actually we had sparring sessions in practice!</p>
<p>The breaking of tiles/glass, lying on a board of pins with a bike going over you,etc. was for demonstration of body fitness & stuff on sports days!! :)</p>
<p>@quiver - I did two weeks of boxing in Hyderabad before shifting to blore!! That’s it! :p</p>
<p>kanteerva’s too far away from my house… I’ve been wanting to go but never really made it!! :/</p>
<p>@Rishav
Oh ok, that is why it has the added “aggressive” sort of element (used very loosely in this context mind you). For our demos I was usually the one doing katas (still no idea how to spell that) be it weapon-less or with my bo (staff). I actually feel quite special that I was the only student to get a custom made Bo from Japan made just for me and to fit my height :D</p>
<p>Jawadamin - Hello and welcome man!
Nice to meet another rowing enthusiast ;)</p>
<p>Guyssssss, this thread.is.growing.phenomenally.</p>
<p>Since we’re talking of Karate and martial arts. I used to practice Taek-Won-Do. Till 8th grade. It was kinda compulsory. Just some interschool type stuff. Never really found it interesting.</p>
<p>I do wanna try boxing though. Always been a fan :D</p>
<p>Guys… we all have to pick up Muay Thai!! That is death :P</p>
<p>I’d rather pick up my iPhone…:)</p>
<p>Raith - I AM INNNN!
:P</p>
<p>Whats new with you guys ? :D</p>
<p>I was kidding…I confess</p>
<p>@Blue
For the Muay Thai… AWESOME :D</p>
<p>Well the me being in a newspaper was just showing all the top A Level results for my group- nothing serious… And turns out I don’t seem so good a couple of people got 2 A<em>s as well and a higher 4th subject… hopefully I can still get in to uni with these… I know a chick who got into Pton with I think 1 or 2A</em>s and a B…</p>
<p>@Quiver
haha 
Well it isn’t like iPhones provide much of an exercise… you don’t even push buttons!! :P</p>
