<p>Ok guys, I have my application for Caltech ready to be submitted. While reviewing this application, I realized that if I was Caltech's admission officer - I would instantly put my application in the 'reject' bin
my scores are alright but aint great - 1490, 2300, 1/200 - every caltech applicant have similar of better scores (mostly better)
I did not participate in any freaking olympiads, which caltech puts a lot of weight on (i was busy drinkin beers and chasin girls - like a normal 16 year old, but I dont think Caltech would look at that very favorably)
My essays are good but not gr8 enuf to carry the weight of my lack of math/science participation
won awards, head boy of school, own a dot com and 50% in another co., etc. etc. - but so does every caltech applicant
WHAT WOULD YOU SUGGEST THAT I DO TO MAKE MY APPLICATION TO CALTECH STAND OUT?? annnnnyyyyyyy suggestions will be very much appreciated. Thanks</p>
<p>मुझे लगता है उन फ्रेंच लोगों की तरह हमें भी हिंदी और उर्दू वगैरह में बात करनी चाहिये। और हिंदी में टाइप करना भी कोई बहुत मुश्किल नहीं है। लेकिन इसके लिये windows xp चाहिये... 2000 और me के बारे में मुझे नहीं पता।</p>
<p>(if you can't read the above, go to Control Panel > Date,Time,Regional > Regional and Language Options > Languages tab > check "Install files for complex scripts..." and hit Apply, insert your Win XP cd and refresh this page :D)</p>
<p>anyway hum sab roman alphabets mein hi sahi, at least hindi mein post to kar sakte hain.... waise meri hindi bhi bohaut achhi nahi (though i got a 90 each in hindi and english). par fir bhi... abhi hindi mein ek essay likhne keh diya gaya to meri to ho jayegi :D</p>
<p>did y'all see shaq vs. kobe? LAgal - u a lakers fan? if u are, no offense meant but i was so thrilled when heat won. i cant stand what kobe did to jackson+shaq. i m sure tht he is regreting his decisions now.</p>

Mujhe lagta hai un french logo ki tarah humein bhi hindi aur urdu vagairah mein baat karni chahiye. aur hindi mein type karna bhi koi bohaut mushkil nahi hai. lekin iske liye windows xp chahiye... 2000 aur me ke baare mein mujhe nahi pata.</p>
<p>which in english would be: I think we should talk in Hindi and Urdu etc., like those french people. And typing in hindi aint that difficult anyway. But you need windows xp for that... i'm not sure about 2000 or me.</p>
