Done With Common App! Yes!!!

<p>Finally submitted it at 2:35 to 7 different schools. FINALLY!! haha!! I'm done with that sucker!!!</p>

<p>Now I just hafta write about 2 new essays by the end of today.. lol</p>

<p>I just finished too and I'm pretty happy--i've been staring at my screen for hours trying to get all the indentations and everything lined up on my essays. It's so frustrating. God, I hated applying to colleges and now I'm finished!!!!!!!!!!! </p>

<p>(now let me get accepted!)</p>

<p>I'm done with the app for the most part, I just have to finish the princeton supplement essays!</p>

<p>OMG Rikataka that's exactly what I'm doing... Are you doing "service of all nations" question?</p>

<p>Haha, I sent it in 12 am last night, er this morning, before I went to sleep. But gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I made a typo in my Common App essay. I wrote "rise about failure" instead of "rise above failure." ... I am a failure. T_T</p>

<p>yeah hahah! that exact question, and then I'm not sure what I'm gonna do for my second one.</p>

<p>Heh, I have to write a 500 any-old essay to submit to two schools (;) Kill two birds with one stone) and Amherst's. I hate Amherst prompt. =_=</p>

<p>:( mine's due within 6 hours and my essay sucks...</p>

<p>Haha, everyone sounds so familiar. I'm struggling w/ the second Pton supp essay (actually it's the first, something about Einstein's quote), and my Amherst supp essay (the "universe" one) was a bunch of cliches strung together haphazardly. Honestly, I'm at a loss what Amherst really expects from their prompts. Chill, six hours more to go and we're free!</p>

<p>that is of course, if we make it through those six hours :p</p>

<p>Assuming all your colleges are due today. I have two on the 3rd, and one on both the 7th and 15th :(</p>

<p>Omg, me too miaoling! I'm doing the Amherst universe essay, and I have NO CLUE how I'm supposed to write or what they want. ;__; I think I'll like... BS it and then just fully expect a nice thin reject letter.</p>

<p>I finished my essays months ago, guys! ^_^</p>

<p>Hah, I'm expecting a rejection too. Just applied in the first place b/c it waived the TOEFL. But never mind, people got in before with cliched/BS essays. Guess they're just like us;)
My essay was ranting about the need of knowledge or something to that effect. You know, linking it with the universe and all that stuff. I don't think it made sense. After all, I wrote it with eyes half shut with sleepiness. Don't know what you think, but it's the only prompt I could partially understand at all.</p>

<p>Erm newyorker, don't make us feel guilty please. I already did;)</p>

<p>I'm not sure I understand, how'd you make us feel guilty? :D</p>

<p>um, YOU were making me feel guilty by setting an example of your punctuality...or whatever. I just can't understand how you can start the app so early. I just can't find the inspiration for my essays without this deadline kicking me continually in the ***.</p>

<p>syneria,</p>

<p>If you made a typo in your essay check out the "I 'll tell you what really sucks..." thread b/c I did the exact same thing, and it really does suck.</p>

<p>Our school REQUIRES us to be done by Nov 15th....cause they have to process 1000 apps. So yeah, we gotta do our part.</p>

<p>Welcome to America; that's American punctuality. LOL =)</p>

<p>whew... i cleaned up an essay a bit and got my common app submitted for the 1/1 schools... though I can't say I feel much relief because I'll be up all night redoing my essay for the 1/2 schools...</p>
