GL banedon!</p>
<p>7% of total cost</p>
<p>what's GL?</p>
<p>my super reach university is i think Yale. Anyone applying to yale? i hope i'm not stealing anyone's spot.</p>
<p>GL = good luck.</p>
<p>Yale...Yale....wow... <em>awed</em> </p>
<p>Can't think of applying to an Ivy League.</p>
<p>why not? the main thing is to believe in yourself. afterwards it's just the lotery of admission.</p>
<p>Cause my GPA, SAT's and EC's are nothing spectacular. Besides <em>Izzy-grin</em> I don't have the work ethic for an Ivy. I need to be coddled a bit. I'm not a "ready-made leader" or "leader of tomorrow". I'm more of "background" person.</p>

slavena, the most important and difficult question is this:</p>
<p>Why should we take you over thousands of others?

</p>
<p>what do you mean?</p>
<p>I think everybody should risk applying to a reach school. And it's not even a risk - you can't lose anything (except for a few hours writing essays). Remember, I'm applying to Princeton;) And, banedon, Yale is sort of slight reach for you, not a super reach, so go for it!</p>
<p>It's so exciting to read about everybody sending in applications. I can't believe I'll be doing that in a month! Good luck to everyone!!!</p>
<p>the quote thing never works for me :confused:</p>
<p>you might be right. meaning a non-ivy school might help you more than an ivy could. it all depends on the person. I absolutely think there are many non-ivy alumni/alumnae who are way better than many ivy ones :)</p>

<p>ok, my last try:D</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Today I have to talk to a representative of a foundation who registered me (I hope she's in her office when I go there, coz she actually rarely is) and she'll tell me what to do. But I suspect I'll really have to wait for the scores to be mailed.</p>
<p>It worked!!!:D A new day, a new beginning</p>
<p>:))) lets compare the SAT scores of the people from our schools. Would u please tell me thi highest, the lowest, the average and the mode score from ur school > :D ?</p>
<p>slavena you're so funny. and yale is a super reach, not a slight reach. and it is IMPOSSIBLE for U of C to be my safety...:)</p>
