<p>Wow - is everybody here interested in languages? Those were actually a major part of my application, since I’m certifiably fluent in five - English, Mandarin (native), French, Spanish, and German. I’m currently also interested in Latin and Ancient Greek. :)</p>
<p>@banana, yes that’s a twist…now I feel like the rarest bird meat…lol</p>
<p>well, question for y’all since you guys all applied early action, i live in so cal and got my interview thingy in the mail, and waited and the guy never called me, so i called him, got told harvard never told him who he was interviewing. then wrote an email to harvard, in to which they replied that he should be contacting me soon, and still no word from my interviewer. should i be worried?</p>
<p>^RarissimaAvis, YES!!</p>
<p>(Also, I’m really mad that I never noticed the option to put more than one interest down…I still don’t see it. Which section of the common app was it under? Foreign Languages would have been my second choice. By the way, is anyone here planning to do a citation in a certain language offered at Harvard?)</p>
<p>@collegeinfo: in the same boat here…all I see is a scroll down thing below “most likely to pursue”…I would totally have put down more than one! but I do remember clearly that I could only click on one…so I’m really confused…</p>
<p>@ rar & college info you are allowed to pick one for the common app, and one for supplement, and there’s a 3rd place i’m looking for that you can do that</p>
<p>@banana: do you mean “career interest” for the common app one?</p>
<p>@college: I definitely will! I can’t decide which one, though!!! I’ll probably do something in the ancient/classics area.</p>
<p>@rarissima yes i do.</p>
<p>@calgirl 5 languages?! That’s intense. </p>
<p>Does anyone else read these threads and feel really unaccomplished? Haha.</p>
<p>I’ve been reading every single word on this thread, and I actually feel very accomplished. Except for the fact that I have to spaz over how imperfect my application is now that I know I could’ve put down three choices for interests…
I’m going to bed because I’m feeling very accomplished :D</p>
<p>Haha, quit while you’re ahead. I’ve stopped reading the decision threads because I keep comparing myself. There are just too many factors for there to be any comparable parallels.</p>
<p>Hm, I could have sworn there was SOME place where I put three interests down…maybe that was only for some of the other schools I’m applying to :/</p>
<p>It’s a hotbed of activity today.
The phrase “avis cyrus” was used in that atrocious video of ‘Can’t Be Tamed’.</p>
<p>THE MORE YOU KNOW.</p>
<p>@ sebelius: I felt unaccomplished when I read your thread. USABO and USNCO? You’re intense! :P</p>
<p>When you fill in the “Future Plans” section of the commonapp, which is different from the harvard supplement, you choose three “academic interests”. How did you miss it? I’m pretty sure the commonapp doesn’t allow you to submit without filling that out?</p>
<p>Hi All
while you are planning to go to bed, I actually just got up (time difference with europe). In fact I will get my decision on dec 16 because of that !
I put CS as future major and linguistics as second choice. Am I the only CS major here?</p>
<p>What if you put undecided in the Future Plans?</p>
<p>@calgirl Haha, I never reached the final level of competition, hardly impressive. 5 languages is another story all together. If I may ask, how did you learn? Did you teach yourself? If so, how’s the best way, in your opinion, to go about doing that?</p>
<p>@AleaJactaEst
I know a kid from my school applying Harvard SCEA who wants to major in CS. I also know 2 kids who have graduated from my school who are studying CS at Harvard. I hear that the program is really good. Better than Yale’s apparently.</p>
<p>Anyone know if Dec 15th is an exact date?</p>
<p>@smart- I remember reading a state that only .2% of Harvard applicants in a previous year’s class put undecided in the future plans. But then,</p>
