Early Writes/Regular Decision Thread

<p>It definitely wasn't all accepted students, just a chunk. I have no idea what percentages are, but it's not the majority of them for sure. It really was just some mailed early. They do them because they want you!</p>

<p>w00t! Just got my acceptance letter. no facebook group yet though? slackers. :P</p>

<p>Decision: Accepted</p>

<p>Stats:

ACT: 33
SAT IIs: 740 Math IIc, 700 Physics, 800 Spanish
GPA: 3.75, a bit misleading because I had a terrible frosh year because I'd just moved here from another country, and basically a 4.0 from the latter half of soph year on.
Rank: School doesn't

AP Lit
(my school has a limit of 3 APs per year, and you can't take any before junior year, so that's why I don't have too many)</p>

<p>Subjective:
Essays: I liked them, they were a bit unusual and random, I felt they reflected my personality well. Except my why swat essay was kind of...weird...but I'm glad they seemed to like it :P
Teacher Recs: Great, when I got deferred from another school one of them told me they were wrong, and the other one offered to call them personally to brag about me
Counselor Rec: Good, I seem to amuse him for some strange unknown reason
Hook (if any): I've taken a lot of initiative on my own, self-studied exams, taken 11 tris of 'tutorials' which are self-study classes in technology, physics, and spanish, started my own microcontroller company, as well as design web page design contracts independently. I'm also venezuelan which makes me a baller.
