<p>just delete the in each bracket</p>
<p>ok this is the DECISION/STATS LIST we will use when we revive the thread
I differentiated between the 2 types of hooks</p>
<p>ok guys, this is the last year of Early Decisions at PRINCETON UNIVERSITY, so lets show ALL THE FUTURE GENERATIONS HOW AWESOME PRINCETON KIDS ARE!!!!!! :):D</p>
<p>pk, I'm guessing the template you're using is the one that I provided a while back. If you can edit your post, it's probably easiest if you just delete the broken template. It seems that vBulletin does not strip out non-standard ASCII characters when persisting data to the store, so as a result, there are "invisible" characters in the template, so the formatting parser will not be able to pick up any of the tags.</p>
<p>In English, that means that the template won't work. This one should, however.</p>

<p>Excellent; I've just tested the template and it works. For colors, you can use (via copy and paste):
GREEN (ACCEPTED):
[/<strong>/color=green]ACCEPTED[/color]
BROWN (DEFERRED):
[/</strong>/color=brown]DEFERRED[/color]
RED (REJECTED):
[/<strong>/color=red]REJECTED[/color]
or for the more enthusiastic...
PRINCETON ORANGE (ACCEPTED):
[/</strong>/color=FF9900]ACCEPTED[/color]</p>

<p>Gosh, nice SAT score. Congrats. It kinda makes me uneasy because it seems the sole reason he got in was test scores. Unless his mom failed to mention some awesome ECs or anything. I mean dont get me wrong he is a good applicant, but aside from recs and SAT it didnt seem like what they say. Like I dont see him filling a specific niche at Princeton. Maybe he is one of the nicely well rounded ones. Whatever lol. But congrats, we are 1 for 1. Yay. Hope I see you next year!</p>
<p>WOW! congrats congrats!
i am actually lurking into this site during lunch using my teacher's comp at school!
tells me how anxious I am !!
! AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA</p>
<p>Why do you thing that a 2330 SAT Reasoning score and a 2210 SAT Subject score are the reason why he was admitted? Those scores, while good, are merely above the Princeton average. I believe that his summer work experience, and his track records are what got him in. There are many applicants with both a GPA over 3.9 and an SAT score over 2300; however, very few will have excelled at track or have worked during the past summers.</p>
<p>True true, im just worrying myself because of the anxiety. And I wont be able to find out for a week because I will be out of town. It was just the 1600 that got my attention. Sorry, I was in the wrong. Just stressed out.</p>
