<p>Wow DANSAT2400. Stop trying to take the glory from all of the outstanding people who were accepted. Clearly you wish you were them.</p>
<p>Someone tells me how to get rid of those please…</p>
<p>Stats:</p>
<p>real quick… since I am his mom and dont know how to do that other thing…
SAT 1890
ACT 29
hundreds of hours volunteer
4 year letter soccer
4 year letter and capt. of swim
pole vault varsity Jr. year
lacrosse
VP of class
in rock band won lots of competitions
9 AP’s
several clubs.
wanted to do PAM also applied 2nd college for ILR
only hook that might not have been a hook depending on who you ask is brother is Freshman now in ILR…
good luck to those who got in my oldest loves it.
to those who didn’t the same advice … you will get in where you should. Actually my oldest did not think he would like Cornell… wanted Rah Rah city school. Financially it made more sense for him to go to Cornell. Now he is so happy. Even when we went to Admit days he wasn’t sure it was for him. So it will work out. His brother actually called. He was hoping he would get in. He went to visit him and saw Kid Cudi and hung out in classes for 4 days. Although academically he could have pushed himself a little more, he felt he definitely could handle the classes at Cornell… but maybe not so it is ok.
He is in Penn State University Park all ready, Rutgers (no way NJ but you always have to apply) and Drexel with half tuition scholarship… Waiting on EA Villanova, Bentley, American, Loyola, St. Johns, Uconn, and RD Syracuse and BU.<br>
Hope this helps someone.
Mom to Whale18 who left for swim practice a little depressed but he will be ok I am sure.</p>
<p>Just get rid of the spaces within the brackets.</p>
