<p>lol "futile", BlueSfF9, you're funny</p>
<p>supposedly they don't count freshman grades, but to comply with the common app, they've started asking for them, so altho they might not be calculated into their little GPA thing for you, they do see them.</p>
<p>Hobbes...was it A IS FOR ADMISSION that you read? I am reading that right now. Actually they explain AI; and as much as princeton would like to look more at our overall highschool work, it is easier to compair us through test scores. I recommend that book to about everybody. It just has an interresting look at how the whole admissions process works.</p>
<p>Yeah it was, but I did hear some bad things and inaccurate things about the book. I've read alot of those admission books. ARGH!</p>
<p>any others that you recommend? lol...idk I think that the book is pretty good. A bit outdated right now...but other than the statistics, the Dartmouth's adcom has some interresting things to say. Prob is...she isn't a PRINCETON adcom.</p>
