Major I put down: engineering

School: Large public school 400 in the class. I’m top ~15%. Our school is well respected and rediculous. 20 nmf and a buttload go to ivy schools.

ECs: a lot of different athletics. I haven’t accomplished anything out of the ordinary though.

My essay was probably the best essay I have written in high school.

I’m pretty happy about it. Good luck!

Hi! Congratulations on your acceptance, I just got mine too!! I’m really excited to meet some of the people I’ll be spending the next four years with, and you’re the first person I’ve come across so far :slight_smile:

See you next year. I’m Hayden if that ever matters.

Okay! Haha I’m Zoe! :slight_smile: I can add you on Facebook!

that would be awesome. If you search Hayden Kirkham there should only be two people who pop up. I’m the one that isn’t the small kid balancing a plate.
