<p>OK, guys. I don't know whether or not you have seen my "venting" thread (do search cuz im not quite sure where it's located). Anyways, it seems to be a success and the people who use it seem to enjoy it. So, I have decided to start another thread (on the Ivy, top college, and college admission forums) to help soothe the emotions of the over-stressed CC'ers. Simply put, anyone on these forums who has gotten into any ivy league schools (or something comparable) and tell of any competitions they DID NOT win, any tests they DID NOT ace, etc. Bascially, show the frazzled CC'ers that you are human, that you are not god. Thanks to all who respond!</p>
<p>P.S. I am one of these CC'ers who could use this.</p>
<p>I got in the bottom ten percent of my class on an orgo test last semester.</p>
<p>I lost every single game of my soccer season in 7th grade.</p>
<p>I can't play any musical instrument. except the kazoo.</p>
<p>i've been dumped by every boyfriend I ever had.</p>
<p>Hey, no one's perfect!</p>
<p>I got a D+ in my last math class, and I might have failed a Shakespeare class I took last semester. I also went into my SAT's completely cold, having not taken a math course in two years. I did relatively well on it, though.</p>
<p>I'm a music student at Rice, so I guess my grades don't matter much to anyone. As far as music goes, I never won the state solo contest (placed three times, but never won). I was consistently third chair in the Seattle Youth Symphony (might sound impressive on some instruments, but not bass). When I applied to Interlochen in 9th grade, they refused to admit me to the High School division, instead "letting" me be in the intermediate group.</p>
