<p>Since everybody is online waiting like me, I'm just going to wait out today by, again, watching movies, working out, and reading. There is no way I am going to do school work until I find out. </p>
<p>haha, the ladies are getting annoyed. perhaps i should call again.</p>
<p>are u in the us though?
its 12am here in snigapore so i have to go to bed. and it wont be out till april 1st.. so good luck waiting 4 days
thats 4 days of no school work.. have u got school today or tomorrow</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm <em>trying</em> to do an English essay. I've only typed about 100 words...</p>
<p>Yea, I'm in the US but sleep really isn't an issue anymore since I have don't have school all this week. I have so much work it isn't even funny but I'm not touching it.</p>
<p>Sleep? I remember sleep. That was before I was in IB...</p>
<p>ive got no school this week either. 2 weeks easter break.. but i have to revise for IB exams.. i have my final IB exmas in a month so i cant afford to lose time
but this thing is driving me insane. i just wanna fing noe!</p>
<p>i don't have school this week either...but i'm supposed to be studying for my finals. At least now I know that I probably won't hear from anyone until after the Ivies...I can work without expecting a FedEx guy to come knocking on my door. Darn to all those bits and pieces saying that UChicago wants to get a jump on the Ivies by sending out the decisions on the 25th.</p>
<p>You do the IB too, silver wavez?</p>
<p>Yup.. that w person also does it..
woah thats so cool
where u at w and jacey?</p>
<p>i'm doing it at united world college of south east asia in singapore... it's actually the biggest ib school.
ib is a biatch tho
im hating it right now
whats ur package like?</p>
<p>u noe the funny thing is since the ib timetable is the same for everywhere in the world. i actually sit it probably 12 hours before u guys do in the us..</p>
<p>i hate revising for it right now
cant concentrate</p>
<p>At other schools, sometimes the person who answers the phones gives out different info than the admissions officers. At Vanderbilt last week, I heard the receptionist telling everyone that letters would be mailed April 1, while the admissions officer quite emphatically told an info session that they would be mailed March 30.</p>
<p>Until a single person on this list gets a Chicago letter in the mail, no one should assume that they have been mailed.</p>
<p>The reason that many expected that letters were already mailed this year is that LAST YEAR a lot of people got them on the Saturday before April 1, meaning they were mailed LAST YEAR on the Thursday or Friday before April 1. Since no one got them on Saturday this year, it's a safe bet that they weren't mailed on Friday. If no one posts by 1pm today that they got a letter, then it's a safe bet they weren't mailed over the weekend.</p>
<p>I'm in Hong Kong, silver wavez...hence we share the joy of having expensive long-distant phone call bills. They have 2 sets of exams for the 2 diff timezones...so people doing Bio in the US don't sit the same paper we do.</p>
<p>I go to Independence High School in Charlotte, NC. There's only about 30 of us. For exams, I'm taking Chemistry HL, Biology HL, English HL, History HL, and German SL.</p>
<p>what? you only do 5 subjects?!</p>
<p>damn...I'm doing English A1 SL, Math Methods SL, Chem HL, Bio HL, Econ HL, Chinese B HL</p>
<p>oh ok so warbler u dont do a full IB diploma..</p>
<p>do u go to west island or island or one of those places jacey?
i used to live there.. in db. went to dbis
never made it to secondary school there
do u noe uwc li po chun there? all part of the uwc movement like my school.</p>
<p>o i didnt noe they had 2 sets of exams i jus tthought they were idiots. hahah i guess i was the idiot..</p>
<p>i do english history and visual arts HL
and STS, methods and french b SL</p>
<p>im so glad the dreaded EE and TOK is over..</p>
<p>A lot of Asians here eh? My mail man comes around 3 pm so I'll wait till then. I think I might just skip school monday if I don't get it this week. Really, I'm not lazy, its just that the quality of my school is so bad that I could miss 2 weeks and not be behind.</p>
<p>I took Math Methods SL and Psychology SL last year. I'm full Diploma, calm down!</p>
<p>The island schools don't do IB yet. Yea...I've heard of Li Po Chun UWC. Lots of brilliant people there on scholarship. My friend goes there now.</p>
<p>I know!!! EE and TOK are such biatches. The school made us finish the EE by November, and TOK was done before this break. I can't study for my exams under all this tension though.</p>
<p>u do 7 subjects? thats a bit OTT isn't it?
woah and what did u get in those exams..</p>
<p>i wish my school let us do some exams earlier.. but we're not allowed to.
j10 which school do u go to?
u do the IB too?</p>
<p>yeh our ee was done by oct and tok finished in dec
so which school do u go to jacey</p>
<p>warbler...how'd u finish 2 subjects in a year? isn't it supposed to be spread out over 2?</p>
<p>well it is.. but there is only a set number of teaching hours so some schools allow people to finish their SL over one year.. its kinda better in a way. so in the 2nd year u just focus on ur highers.
but warbler seems to be excessively bright and doing 7 subjects :) tee hee..</p>
