<p>Is anyone up to a post your essay thread after admissions decisions are out? I might create one. The cc prep one from 2010 I think was super helpful. Besides, cc honor code. Plagiarists are dishonest: future applicants need help, not their entire piece of writing copy and pasted.</p>
<p>Yeah definitely! What’s the name of 2010 thread you were talking about?</p>
<p>Yes definitely after the decisions are posted…or PM</p>
<p>I think the 2010, on prep school admissions, search up “post your essays! for future applicants”.</p>
<p>I’m definitely posting my essays after admissions deadlines. They’re too personal to plagiarize, anyway.</p>
<p>Oh, and btw, only SEVENTY ONE days left until march 10th. Scary, huh?</p>
<p>What’s scarier is that there are 15 days until my first deadline!</p>
<p>PaperIdeas - could be the browser you’re using? or try to paste your text somewhere first (like wordcounter.net) and then re-copy and paste it to GoChoate :D</p>
<p>OO, deadlines. Hate hate hate. Hmph, I guess everyone’s feeling the same ways about essays. What makes a bad essay?</p>
<p>Freaking out! Waited last minute to do my essays and teacher recommendations for Deerfield and Middlesex.</p>
<p>Ahhh I have to ask my spanish teacher for a rec for middlesex when I get back! Great. </p>
<p>Why does middlesex require that extra rec? I would rather not tell my spanish teacher I’m applying to bs…</p>
<p>@helloel I feel the same way. My Spanish teacher at my current school is from Brazil (where they speak Portuguese) and doesn’t even know how to say Nike correctly.</p>
<p>I can only imagine how many spelling errors would be contianed in that recommendation. -__-</p>
<p>is that racist… jk</p>
<p>Ivyguy6: exactly. I have no idea what she even knows about boarding school. I’m in high school so that’s double awkward. First of all she’ll think I hate my current high school, and then she’ll think that I’m getting sent away or something. Gahh I have to do a LOT of explaining.</p>
<p>I will if you help me
ps I am not the writer so don’t expect too much about mine</p>
<p>woops wrong thread</p>
<p>@woowoo20 good one lol</p>
<p>@helloel I’m also in high school. My teacher will probably think I hate my school also (which I do) but I hope he wont come off that way in the recommendation. What bs are you applying to? For me its Andover, Deerfield (top choice) , middlesex, Georgetown prep, and Exeter.</p>
<p>Has anyone visisted Deerfield yet? Also can you iChat or Skype for an interview if you won’t be able to go to an.on campus interview?</p>
<p>“my teacher will probably think I hate my school (which I do)”
hahah that just made me laugh
Well I’m applying to Andover, Deerfield, Middlesex, Taft, SPS(I literally decided to apply here 2 days ago), and Peddie</p>
<p>What grade are you applying to?</p>
<p>Oh and about your Deerfield question, you can schedule an interview with a regional admissions representative in your area. That’s what I’m doing. If you go to the back of the viewbook there’s a list, and online.</p>
