<p>drexel doesnt need much-sat scores/transcripts/any 2 recos</p>

<p>

It wasn't me. <em>the song</em></p>

<p>It was actually SP <- The Princeton freak :eek:</p>

<p>Any of you writing the Science olympiad on saturday? If you are, did you even start that crappy proposal about a science club?</p>

<p>?????????</p>

<p>Shash,some more details pls</p>

<p>oh and btw,we have our Board exams in 11 days,so I dont think any of us have the time or inclination to do any stuff like this</p>

<p>7th Nation9al Science Olympiad, (NSO), the one sponsored by MTG. the second round is on Saturday.</p>

<p>ii days, huh. Then i guess your in the CBSE too.</p>

<p>wow,U got into the second round??</p>

<p>Ok,I think we all cud do with some info abt u</p>

<p>Whats ur rank?
How much did u get in class 10?
what kind of extracurriuclars and achievemnets have u gt?
How was ur MIT interview?</p>

<p>^ akash stop assesing your competition, will ya :D</p>

<p>btw some good news: my P'ton interviewer said that they are recruiting more intls this year to boost their Science and Engineering Depts</p>

<p>200</p>

<p>85.2</p>

<p>Extracurriculars are a joke. Consist primarily of projects which i pulled together in about 3 days each to keep my teachers happy. Achievments are not so bad. Got onto the stage in a couple of quizzes, selected to appear for the natl Phy olym. and Natl.chem.olm. I get the NTSE scholarship (for all its worth)</p>

<p>i didnt do an mit interview. I didnt have the time to go to pune when the interviewer was available.</p>

<p>shash,did U go for the Hindu Quiz?</p>

<p>And wow,national olympiads??Uve got better chances than all of us at MIT atleast</p>

<p>No about the Hindu quiz. We had a selection in the school and the teacher 9incharge was quite ,um, misguided about the kind of environment the quiz provides. (or maybe thats just my excuse)</p>

You bet your ass they are :mad:</p>

<p>Say, are any of you even CONSIDERING joining an Indian Institution?</p>

<p>Yes, NIT Surathkal (do you know anything abt it??)</p>

<p>And he also told me that P'ton reported a drop in intl applications</p>

<p>I don't have a safety. Not even in india. :(</p>

<p>I wish my interviewer (the only one I got) actually knew something about MIT.... he didnt know ******.....</p>

<p>The NIT s are supposed to be quite good. I dont know about the one in suratkal in specific though.</p>

<p>Was your interviewer a Jaswant somethig from Pune?</p>

<p>They experienced a drop?I cant believe that,considering that everybody applying abroad from my school is applying to Princeton</p>

<p>The drop was for the class of 2008</p>
