<p>About Toefl:
As I know Toefl scores are available in aprox 1 month after you tested but by the time they mail them to you it takes about 2 more weeks and by the time you request and they send them to colleges takes at least another 2 weeks. I dont know why ETS takes so much of time when they even charge so much !</p>

I wish my school was visited by admissions officers.</p>
<p>I wish admissions officers knew about my school. Princeton is asking a lot of questions about gradeing and marks here. They asked how "exceptional" is and Exceptional Achievement award ... kinda weird.</p>
<p>Did they(Princeton) ring ur Counsellor?</p>
<p>sometimes you're asked to attach a school profile explaining the grades.</p>
<p>my school always attch. or you can do the explaining yourseldf.</p>
<p>ok... mine is red<em>blue</em><a href="mailto:d@yahoo.com">d@yahoo.com</a>
don't laugh about it...my favourite football[soccer] team's coulours are red and blue <em>blush</em> I used to be a huge fan...untill I got more invoved in other things... :p</p>
<p>ronty....I don't pretty much like the high school life in romania...actually I don't like my hs life here in my town...I think I would be a little subjective... let me see if I'll get the proper mood to write... :D</p>
<p>Anyone here applying to UK College?</p>
<p>i did last year. got a deferred entry at Warwick for econ...</p>
<p>btw guys does anyone have ideas for a self-interview for me at princeton? Like questions that i can ask myself etc.? i got a few standard things like fav subject, most important achievement in school and in my gap year. anything interesting/quirky i can add to make the adcoms eyes turn?</p>
<p>what is a self-interview?</p>
<p>lol kjoodles...what did u tell them...? that it was very very exceptional? =) that means they are giving you some pretty serious consideration;)</p>
<p>Yeah Princeton rang my school. Seems my school didn't properly certify my reports ... my principal was quite red-faced when I saw him. </p>
<p>They were more interested about how many people get Exceptional Achievements and stuff from the school. Guess they wanted to know how "Exceptional" it really is. </p>
<p>Btw- I still haven't recieved my October Scores ... I still don't have the writing section officially so I'm pretty much screwed. No idea where my scores dissapeared to ... :(</p>
<p>Diana, u can write on any topic of ur choice... i was just giving an example there (the HS life one)</p>
<p>omg are you serz? STILL no oct scores? what is collegeboard going to do? has princeton interviewed u yet?</p>
<p>well the fact they took all the trouble to ring your schools shows ur under some pretty serious consideration;)</p>

</p>
<p>callthecops2 = i was asked to email a self-interview kind of thing to my ED school. i wrote about where i grew up, this particular encounter, my country, my favourite class, my choice of subjects, how i improved from getting a D and a C to getting all A's, what would the perfect high school be like, what i like most about my high school, why their college was my first choice college, what i might major in.</p>
<p>hope that helps :) best of luck! </p>
<p>kjoodles = yeah, i agree with jay - if they cared enough to call up your school to find out about your grades, you must have really perked their interest :D</p>
<p>kill me for saying this, but... 20 more days <em>collapses</em> - arggh, the frustration + excitement!</p>
