<p>^ I have trimesters at my school -.-</p>

1522

<p>MITES told my GC that they were making decisions that day (yesterday). Crazy huh? They still have over 20 days to send out decisions… Maybe we’ll get them a bit early?!</p>

1523

<p>That makes me so nervous</p>

1524

<p>@kevinw00t</p>

<p>Look into FIRST Robotics!</p>

1525

<p>kevinw00t–to be honest i dunno about my school. i think we have a robotics club? but it’s pretty insignificant. other than that it’s just science olympiad (which, by the way, beasts at everything.) but i’m not in any “nerdy” clubs really soooo i wouldn’t know. sorry!</p>

1526

<p>My school doesn’t have anything.</p>

1527

<p>my school doesn’t have any math/science related extracurriculars either. so i’m trying to look for some high school internships to apply for in case i don’t get into mites.</p>

1528

<p>Yep, I’m trying to find some internships too. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>SERIOUSLY?! That’s crazy. Maybe it was the first round of cuts o.O I would thoroughly enjoy receiving the decisions earlier rather than later.</p>

<p>Did MITES just call your GC cuz they’re tight like that? Or did your GC call an ask them?</p>

1529

<p>I was doing pretty well until I read that they were making decisions yesterday… now I’m anxious about MITES again, on top of being anxious about my SAT scores! :(</p>

1530

<p>Oh the anxiety</p>

1531

<p>LOL, haha MITES called my GC. They needed my first semester grades from this year.
Maybe they were just trying the extract the grades in a timely manner by saying that they were doing more than they actually were…but the website does say “BY” mid-April, so who knows… maybe they’ll get it out by the 8th or something :)</p>

1532

<p>wut? yesterday? O___O That’s rather early. From what I read from previous MITES threads, MITES has a tendency to be a little late…</p>

1533

<p>SAT SCORES COME OUT IN 9 DAYS.
dude… MITES DIDNT CALL ANY OF MY PEEPS.
AGGGHHHH…
i really REALLY want to get in. like. i will attack bears and snort water and eat dogs to get in :)</p>

<p>Well since there’s a gender quota, it’s more like 40/1000, considering they don’t partition the applicants by gender during decisions.</p>
