<p>nice.... wow 30 kids in the junior class!... i think i had more in my kindergaten class</p>
<p>that ACT and GPA is really great.....
Good job</p>
<p>Being from Minnesota... </p>
<p>It's a good thing.</p>
<p>I believe there were about 40-45 kids when we started 7th grade, but some have moved, others flunked a grade, and I think at least 5 have transferred to a small Christian academy that most colleges don't even recognize diplomas from. </p>
<p>Of course, a small school also means very limited classes, which is pain. I'll probably take classes at a university about an hour from home next year through Minnesota's PSEO program since I don't have any more math or physical science classes left to take at my high school. Hopefully that will help balance out a complete lack of APs/Honors.</p>
<p>ya btu that ACT score will show your intelligence..... u playn any Varsity sports??</p>
<p>I played basketball the last two years, but I got kind of burned out on the team sport thing so I decided to take this year off. Never really gotten along with the rest of the team very well, except for a couple people. I would play tennis, but they cut it at least six years ago.</p>
<p>ohh... well u should try to play on a varsity sport team for your senior year..... notre dame really likes that</p>
<p>I don't know if that will be possible if I am commuting an hour probably 3 days a week to take classes at University of Minnesota-Duluth. Hopefully the rest of my app will make up for no varsity sports.</p>
<p>ya prob....... you look pretty good to me...... but its always a plus</p>
<p>Bump it...... </p>
<p>hows the finals goin?</p>

Athletics: golf (obviously) since 8th grade. varsity since 9th grade. placed 3rd in state as a team this past year. we will probably win state next year.
What you like most about ND: the community and family atmosphere
Scale of 1-10 how badly you want to attend ND in the fall of 08'-10+</p>
<p>Nice golfer 08......</p>
<p>South Dakota?????<br>
^ Hows the weather there now adays?</p>
<p>it's actually not that bad here right now. it's one of the warmest winters we've ever had. it was about 45 here on wednesday so i decided to go golfing. the course closed about 6 weeks ago. most people's season runs from about april through september. mine runs from march through december. i'm nuts what can i say. it could be a lot worse here, though. there's not even snow on the ground!</p>
<p>wow.. wasnt expecting that....</p>
<p>Ya in phoenix... our season is about year round....... we dont get much snow! lol</p>
<p>Im an avid golfer as well... but play football.. so cant play on the golf team.....</p>
<p>i used to play football, but that was when golf was in the spring. we switched to the fall so i decided to play golf instead. i have to say that i am probably the only one not complaining about global warming. it makes the winters bearable here. last year at this time, there was about a foot of snow on the ground right now. i always say i am a warm weather person stuck in south dakota.</p>
<p>hahah ya..... weve got plenty of warm weather in phoenix... lets see it was like 75 ish here today.....</p>
<p>and its december.....</p>
<p>O well</p>
<p>Wut other schools are u looking at GOlfer_08 ---- cuz believe it or not..... we may not get in to ND...lol</p>
<p>blasphemy!! how dare you spread such filthy lies!!</p>
<p>no, but really, it is kind of scary knowing that there is actually a pretty good chance that i won't get into notre dame as much as i hate to admit it. i do have a few other schools in mind, but none of them can compare to notre dame. the list is as follows:</p>
<p>notre dame (obviously)
columbia (even less likely)
u of washington st. louis (EVEN less likely)
creighton
florida (only because it's warm)
michigan
nyu (i like new york)
mit (a very long shot)
u of minnesota (safety)
any other place with a warm climate</p>
<p>while all of these are really great schools, i would be greatly disappointed if i didn't get into nd. it's probably way too early to be worrying about it now, though.</p>
<p>Ha! </p>
<p>It's never too early, golfer_08.</p>
<p>Look at me. I'm literally paranoid 24/7 right now because I didn't prepare much in my junior year.</p>
<p>Michigan with me too......</p>
<p>Um Look at University of San Diego if you like warm weather...... prob my numba 2</p>
<p>thats an interesting list</p>
<p>I have to agree, very intersting list. I don't really see any continuity between any of those schools (maybe Wash U and Columbia). What do you plan on majoring in college? </p>
<p>Haha...and it's definitely not too early for being paranoid about getting into ND......I have daily thoughts about that one.</p>
<p>there is very little continuity in those schools. that is because i am kind of torn between several different possible majors but, from the information i have gathered, notre dame is excellent for all of them.</p>
