<p>“UIUC post= ■■■■■… this one=real… had to withdraw my app from that school after being accepted here anyways…
But ya, I did get a 350W and I thought JHU was a 1600 school anyways…?
Also, please do not make fun of me, I’ve certainly seen lower stats get accepted to JHU and as far as I know, my recs/essays could have been good; I’m just extremely critical and pessimistic. Anyways I’m in the 25th percentile for SAT scores so don’t act overly surprised (especially considering that this is ED). I guess you have no reason to trust me after UIUC but I don’t really care to be honest. I was just teasing a friend and I have no personal gain from this so I’m not concerned what people think of me. Good luck to other applicants though.”</p>
<p>Rest assured, I don’t believe a word you say. </p>
<p>“Also, please do not make fun of me”
“I don’t really care to be honest”
“I’m not concerned what people think of me”</p>
<p>Right…</p>
<p>“I guess you have no reason to trust me”</p>
<p>At least we know that much to be true. I have a friend who works in admissions. I asked him this past weekend. No one in ED was admitted with under a 550 writing score. Those scoring even close to 550 were generally lacrosse recruits. Get off of CC and stop trolling and acting like an idiot.</p>

<p>Lol…I know this is a really late comment, but I’m pretty sure compounder123’s family income is <$150,000 not <$1,500,000. I’m just clarifying, in case you read it the wrong way…in India, the comma is placed in a different location than it is in America.</p>
