I hate arrogant people who think they WILL get into Harvard

Applying to College
1

<p>I have a friend who's only applying to: </p>

<p>Harvard
Yale
Penn
Cornell
Columbia
Princeton
Boston University</p>

<p>She says that she doesn't even see the need to apply to BU (legacy) because she knows she goes going to get into one of the Ivies. In fact when I asked her where she wanted to go, she said "I'm not sure yet but it WILL be one of the Ivy Leagues."</p>

<p>Her stats: Black and Native American</p>

<p>SATs: 660 CR, 660W, 530M</p>

<p>SAT11s: 790 World, 600M1C, 750 US</p>

<p>GPA: 96, rank top 2%</p>

<p>ECs: </p>

<p>Law Office Internship
A slew of Womens Leadership Confrences
Editor-in-Chief newspaper</p>

<p>Essays: Very serious and political</p>

<p>Recommendations: Solid but nothing extraordinary</p>

<p>Interview: Boring personality, very dry, terrible speaking abilitites. No charisma and has often told people that other religions are wrong.</p>

<p>I pray she gets rejected everywhere. How do you guys think she'll do?</p>

<p>looking at her stats alone, she proably wont make it. the interview, essay part may be a tad bit biased point of view.</p>

<p>but i hate arrogant people who GETS into harvard.</p>

3

<p>her SAT I score is bad..., she probably won't get accepted to HYP</p>

4

<p>Wow! With "friends" like you, she doesn't need enemies.</p>

<p>I have no clue what she'll do, but the venom in your post about a so-called friend does make me wonder about your own character.</p>

5

<p>She has undoubtedly consulted with the ultimate authority...........Good luck to your friend, she will need it.</p>

6

<p>thisSHHHisBANANAs, you're another prestige whore. Looks like you're apply to all the ivies other than brown and dartmouth. Hypocrite</p>

<p>Her SATs are hardly impressive (the math score is downright awful) and I also think she is being incredibly arrogant in assuming she's going to get into an ivy league univeristy. The amount of qualified students that apply to these places is rediculous and it's often a crap shoot at who gets in. She has the race card in her favor and for her I think it will come down to writing stellar essays and having bang up interviews.</p>

<p>Just a side note though, quit worrying about her so much.</p>

8

<p>hahaha this post sounded almost like you were asking for your own chances, but "cleverly" disguising it as those of a friend/enemy</p>

<p>NSM, OP is just probably frustrated that while we (including her) are working so hard and wondering whether we even have any shot at all, here's one who is so confident that she'll get in. OP probably didn't mean to be so...um...venomous. A slip of the tongue (post?) in a moment of frustration (still, that's a bad thing). :)</p>

10

<p>thisSHHHisBANANAs why do you care so much, will you kill yourself if she gets in? It shouldn't affect your life.........</p>

11

<p>im only applying to
Harvard
Yale
Princeton
Stanford

<p>No sympathy from me. If the so-called friend is overconfident, she won't get into the colleges. End of story. What's it to the OP? In fact, if the OP was a real friend who assumed that the girl was setting herself up for failure, the OP would feel concerned and sorry for the girl, not holding her up to ridicule.</p>

<p>From looking at the OP's own posts, it seems that the OP has scores that aren't that great, and is applying to similar schools as the friend. The OP needs to spend more time being concerned about her own applications, not frothing at the mouth about her friend.</p>

<p>The OP's post reminds me of what my mom used to tell me: "Don't wish bad luck on others. It will fall right back on you."</p>

<p>LOL! I'm not a her, I'm a him. And she's not a friend. It's just one of those words you use when referring to someone, geez. </p>
