<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>umm, I'm sorry??</p>
<p>I wasn't even going to entertain this post with a reply, because how ridiculous is it to ask for students to tell of their not-so-proud stories.</p>
<p>if it makes you feel any better, I've never won a national spelling bee, nor have a won an olympic gold medal. I'm still lacking on superbowl rings as well....I'm pretty sure I've failed a test/quiz before in my life sometime....</p>
<p>but seriously, asking people to reply to this in any form of a serious manner is kind of ridiculous. Just make the assumption that everyone you've met not only has their flaws, but has also failed at some point in their life, whether is was a test/quiz/sport/art/etc. it's human.</p>
<p>keep your chin up with college admissions. it's tough sometimes.</p>
