<p>@shkaribu ah, that must be it. I copy-and-pasted. Unfortunately, I already submitted…</p>
<p>finished my princeton supplement several hours before the deadline…
applying to 20 colleges :)</p>
<p>@unicameral</p>
<p>I submitted on 12/31</p>
<p>You have to get an email from Princeton in order to access your tracking account</p>
<p>it took roughly 24 hours for me to receive the email, so don’t worry, you’ll get it</p>
<p>I applied to 8 Schools (originally 12 but cut 4 off due to EA acceptances)
Accepted:
Univ. of Alabama (Honors College and pending UFE decision)
Auburn U (will apply to Honors College soon)
Georgia Tech (EA acceptance, waiting on Pres. Scholar semi-finalist status 1/11)
MIT (most likely matriculating here if FA is sufficient, I’m loving the school atm)</p>
<p>Applied:
USC (hopefully I receive a decision by the end of this month indicating I’ll be interviewing for a significant scholarship)
UCLA
UC Berkeley
Princeton (a reach like MIT, really the only school I won’t be surprised I get rejected from seeing it’s just as selective as MIT)</p>
<p>Total of 8 schools, I like my list :D, I dropped Harvard, Stanford, Caltech, and Columbia (3 of the following did not offer my major)</p>
<p>@piedpieko</p>
<p>I’m in the same position, and past CC threads said yes it’s ok.</p>
<p>@spaceduck & @unicarmel2013 … mind posting your stats??
Princeton’s kinda my highest reach & I’m not applying to MIT (out of reach?)
That said, all the colleges I’m applying to are reaches for me (Cornell, Columbia, Dartmouth, NW, UPenn) except UIUC!! Anyway, I’d like to know what I’m up against!!</p>
<p>I know this is off topic, but do you guys think that because I only put one adjective (‘Brilliantly eccentric’) in the part where it asks for adjectives you friends would use to describe you with, that I would be discriminated against in admissions? I know it’s a ridiculously small part of the application but I think it makes me look a fool. Should I contact admissions?</p>
<p>Or you should have just followed directions like it asked you to do.</p>
<p>You’re not going to be discriminated against. No one knows what they’ll think of it.</p>
<p>Contact admissions if you want, but it’s really not that big of a deal.</p>
<p>Yes POmani that does make you look like a fool lol. But that isn’t what “discriminated against” means, it will just be probably a very slightly negative thing (especially if you’re international, they will consider that you may not have grasped the connotation of what you said). Do not contact admissions, they’ll just focus on it more.</p>
<p>SpaceDuck we’ll most likely be classmates next year. :D</p>
<p>rishav, basic stats are 2340 (superscored), 800 x2 SAT IIs, barely top 5% class rank. But my ECs are better than my stats.</p>
<p>Unicameral2013, looking forward to it. Are you on the FB group?</p>
<p>And since he posted the gist of his stats, I will too.</p>
<p>SAT I: 2080 (single sitting), 730 Chem, 660 Math II (when I applied, now it’s a 770 in case I didn’t get into MIT), 750 Math I (did not have this score at the time I was applying to MIT) in the top 3% of my grade (likely will rise to top 2%) out of roughly 700. </p>
<p>My ECs are a tremendous part of my application, helped paint the picture of me that I want these colleges to see (that rhymes!)</p>
<p>Nope I don’t have facebook. Will you be at CPW?</p>
<p>Sent off my app yesterday! Really not expecting good news, come April. But I can dream</p>
<p>Who exactly do you contact if you need to clarify something on your essay? (My Extra Curricular prompt was under 1000 char but for some reason the end of the last word got cut off… -_- think this is a big deal?)</p>
<p>^Depends how much was cut off. What word was it and how much got cut?</p>
<p>I was able to register for my app tracking account. Can anyone see their tracking info? Mine is “currently not available.”</p>
<p>I can see it! I’m just missing my ACT report, lol.</p>
<p>Uni I will most likely to attend</p>
<p>finally done all my regular apps! one of my adjectives was telepathic haha</p>
<p>i don’t really expect anything from princeton though…early admit rate was pretty high and they already took one from my school</p>
<p>congrats to those who have already gotten in to other places early!</p>
<p>I applied for the lulz. No one from my school’s ever gone (no one’s applied in like 5 years) so fingers crossed.</p>
<p>My tracking has updated, all my materials are in that they have requested.</p>
<p>I’m going to email them to see if I can send an unofficial transcript for a math class I took at my local university.</p>
<p>That will save me four dollars! w00t.</p>
<p>@unicarmel2013 & @spaceduck!! Thanks. My objectives are very similar to yours! Though the ECs are where I lack.
Anyway, hope for the best!! :)</p>
<p>@Zeruel95 - Same here. No one’s applied to Pton for the last 5 yrs from my school(I’m an international applicant though!)! That said, two of us are applying this year.</p>
<p>Anyone get contacted from an interview yet??</p>
<p>And anyone want to share their favorite source of inspiration?
Mine’s - “Manchester United Football Club”!! Now is that smart or dumb??</p>
<p>The inspiration one was the hardest for me to answer. I eventually put something sort of stupid. Idk I feel like my whole application seemed like I was “trying too hard” even though I was being honest… The Art of War is actually my favorite book (I don’t read much)… Whatever though. I hope I get in cause it seems like an awesome school, but either way I’ll be fine. :)</p>
