<p>Aw, c'mon, dont be soo hard on yourself, hehe, i was a bit nervous aswell, and was rushing up and down the page looking for it.</p>
<p>From what ive seen, ur a great and intelligent person and im sure anyone woudnt have a problem being ur roomate ;).</p>
<p>thanks lol, i am actually a clown...</p>
<p>lol no you're not.. dont' be so hard on yourself, as Bahamain said</p>
<p>i dunno, lithium bromide, I prefer sodium pentathol myself</p>
<p>I know of some people who prefer sildenafil citrate.. lol, can u guys get my catullus like reference ?</p>
<p>lol what exactly ARE you guys talking about?! too lazy to scroll up and figure it out</p>
<p>I just listed the chemical names of some famous drugs</p>
<p>sodium pentathol is the drug that makes u tell the truth
sildenafil citrate is viagra</p>
<p>it was sort of a joke :p, I guess I didnt think it out too well</p>
<p>lol no its okay, I would just really have NO way of knowing that..... the chemical names of those drugs, I mean</p>
<p>There is a drug that makes u tell the truth????</p>
<p>yes, of course there is. I'm sure there are things that are more powerful and work better but sodium pentathol is the most famous and well known one, it acts as a sort of sedative which lowers your guard</p>
<p>its also easy to make, my chem teacher sort of jokingly threatened us with it</p>
<p>Whoa. I was referred to this conversation from the Cornell board. You Duke people rock. What's a fancy schmancy name for cough syrup? It's keeping me awake somehow right now...</p>
<p>look at the active ingredient on the bottle</p>
<p>cough syrup does have a lot of alcohol in it(I think 23%)</p>
<p>it shouldnt be keeping you up, most cough syrups are like nyquil and have mild sedative effects. of course, you could be taking something with a stimulant in it(like Dayquil)... tell me what you're taking and I might be able to tell you the active ingredient</p>
<p>hehehe, we're not all 'Duke People" yet...we're Duke hopefulls...most of us atleast.</p>
<p>I'm a duke hopeful, and a proud one at that, your yield rate will increase if you accept me, for any adcoms that might peruse this ;)</p>
<p>Yeah, I was expecting to be knocked out. This is some new perscription thing I've never taken before.. Weirdd...</p>
<p>Good luck to all you hopefuls. Is Duke rolling? One of my friends got in but I'm not sure if it was just a likely letter of some sort.</p>
<p>duke is not rolling, they do have a minority auto admit weekend and also some sort of likely letter for athletes/legacies/ otherwise amazing people</p>
<p>I didnt get a likely, I got a handwritten letter from the admin office</p>
<p>Woww the personal touch! Very nice.. Congrats!!</p>
<p>Yea, so, he's basically in...lucky lucky him.</p>
<p>I dunno, the admin letter never specifically said admissions but just mentioned that I was a good writer and a very good candidate</p>
<p>then I called my local admin and we had a very nice small chat</p>
<p>I cant take anything for a given at this point though Duke is certainly very promising.</p>
<p>but thanks for the encouraging words</p>
<p>He said that you were a good writer? Was he referring to ur admissions essays?</p>
<p>yes.... I was thrilled</p>
