3

4

<p>Anyone else?</p>

5

<p>Bummmppp....</p>

6

<p>ROAR!!!!! No jk...I wont kill you .I never cared if you bumped or posted a lot....</p>

7

<p>Duffman, if I was in charge I would admit you in every school you applied to- you are a determined and focused guy!! Best of luck, you will do great wherever you decide on! :)</p>

8

<p>^ Hehe, thanks a lot, hopefully admissions officers have the same mindset!</p>

9

<p>Wow, lots of views...like 3 responses, heh.</p>

10

<p>Does no one love me but njmom?</p>

11

<p>Anyone else have any insight?</p>

12

<p>i have no idea about any of those colleges except BC, and you can get in EA</p>

13

<p>^ Wow, you think so....hmmm, that would be quite nice.</p>

14

<p>Any other input?</p>

15

<p>Maybe the reason there are so many views and so little responses is because they've already commented, and already seen this thread. So please stop bumping it. There are others that actually need help.</p>

16

<p>Honestly wolves, lol......and I've really gotten little in the way of responses, most of it was you arguing with doogie or my bumping it up on all of my posts, I've really gotten about 8 people with ACTUAL input.</p>

17

<p>Then stop bumping your threads. Please. There are reasons people aren't giving you "Any other opinions"</p>
