<p>Wow! I got a 2270 also! I guess the coolest people get that score...</p>
<p>Also, I got mail from this college that was like somewhere in the middle of a desert, and they only accepted had 15 people a year and it was all guys...and you had to work on a ranch...nooooooooo thanks.</p>
<p>Deep Springs College? I think you can go wherever you want to go after your two years there, but I don't know how great that would be.</p>
<p>Evergreen?? That place is soooo cool!
I mean, I'm a girl, so I could never go there. Basically it's kind of a weird ranch thing that sounds a bit cultish, but you just kind of work in the wilderness and become really intune with everything (this sounds so horribly cliche and hippie-ish). You spend a year there, I think, and then afterwards pretty much everyone goes to HYP or some other amazing school. It's really really hard to get into that place.</p>
<p>Dude, txhorn02, if that was DS, you passed up a great chance. </p>
<p>But that's just me and my love of Telluride Association bias.</p>
<p>yah I got stuff from deep springs too. I wasn't really digging the course selection and the all guys thing though. I've gone to an all boys school for 4 years. I've had enough I need a coed campus NOW! The concept of the school and the fact that everyone ends up where they want was kind of appealing though</p>
<p>Woah, I can't imagine an all-girls school for 4 years.
Yikes.
I know everybody says it can be really fun, but that's so not for me.</p>
<p>all-boys school really isnt that bad. I've made great friends and I've probably been able to concentrate more on school than I otherwise would have been. It's not like I never see girls, I just have to put more work into meeting them and hanging out with them (and im lazy so that sux but college will just be like enabling my laziness which I'll love cuz there'll be girls everywhere and I won't have to go out and seek)</p>
<p>Yeah, I just basically really dislike large groups of girls. I have like 2 best friends that are girls and otherwise I have mostly guy friends. And they roll their eyes about my Grey's Anatomy and pink obsession, but they're more fun.</p>
<p>I got that Deep Springs thing too. Parents thought it'd be good for me. </p>
<p>Are they right? Probably. </p>
<p>Was I interested? Nope.</p>
<p>And j07, what's with Love Pink apparel that don't have a single thread of pink?</p>
<p>Well some of the Love Pink has pink. It's mainly the whole...aura of pink. Like fun and flirty and not raunchy-sexy but just like...fun! </p>
<p>I'm hoping you're referring to VS aka best store in the world.</p>
<p>Like camelia, I didn't get any college mail despite having decent scores (2320) -- not a US citizen. (But I shall immigrate and invade anyway, mwaha!)</p>
<p>I had scores a bit higher than that and Princeton didn't send me anything (yes, I'm a domestic applicant) so maybe it's random? Or maybe there was a "don't spam me" bubble that I marked (after PSAT in sophmore year, I learned to always mark that bubble. I think I saved a tree.)</p>
<p>Judging by the amount of mail some of my American friends have received, you probably saved four or five trees at a conservative estimate. :p (And now that I think about it, an international friend of mine received a load of college email, so possibly I checked the same bubble.)</p>
<p>I think I probably received at LEAST one piece of college mail every single day for an entire 2 years.</p>
<p>I still get them!!! And now my sister is starting too. It's neverending. For a while, I thought I would save all of them and see how many I actually got, but then I realized that I had lost several important items (like my car, perhaps) inside the abyss of college mail and so I abandoned that pursuit and had 18349457 loads of recycling.</p>
<p>Someone I know actually created a little Excel chart of all the college spam she'd received post-her PSAT. I think she's gotten to 200-odd (very odd!) and counting in a few weeks. :D</p>
<p>I have a huge stack of big letters in my room, and box full of junk somewhere else, it might have gotten recycled.</p>
<p>I didn't receive any stuff. (2360 here :p) Must be the entire attacking hordes of internationals thing. :D</p>
<p>I've got an excel sheet, though that's more for all my colleges in general than for just the spam...</p>
<p>Do Mailmen dream of Electric Catalogues? :D</p>
<p>j07 - I was indeed referring to VS, purveyor of overpriced but exceedingly attractive intimates. (Well I like their commercials anyway.... go figure)</p>
<p>Even if I had no intention of attending some obscure school... I was always slightly crestfallen if a single day passed w.o me getting college spam mail.</p>
<p>I was really disappointed. I think 6 out of the 8 Ivy League schools contacted me without me first contacting them, and Princeton was one of the two that didn't :(</p>
<p>Hahaha "purveyor of overpriced but exceedingly attractive intimates." I LOVE THAT. Next time I go there (which is actually going to be in like 30 minutes, go figure) I'm going to suggest casually that they post a sign outside their door that reads that. ;)</p>
