<p>But who knows, maybe it would be beneficial to see what they wrote? </p>
<p>Sorry I keep posting each time, I would go back and edit my first post but I’m posting from my phone and the edit option isn’t available - sorry for being annoying haha</p>
<p>I think there’s an option on the sheet that allows us to see them. Either way, I’m picking mine up.</p>
<p>Ah it does say that! So much for not reading the fine print haha</p>
<p>@Beachlover, thanks for your help!</p>
<p>@anontransfer, no need to apologize for posting too much; that’s what this forum is for!</p>
<p>No problem! Feel free to ask as many questions as you need to. That’s why I made this thread.</p>
<p>Now I’m tempted to just send the recommendations in myself after they finish them. I wonder how much these are weighed… And I have no clue how honest my professors will be or what criticism they will give</p>
<p>The longer I wait to send in my app, the less confident I become :/</p>
<p>I am completely un-confident. But I can see myself at Vandy, so I’m hoping my test scores don’t keep me out.</p>
<p>I hope pretty much EVERYTHING on my app doesn’t keep me out.</p>
<p>I am procrastinating so much on my application. I get to the part where they ask about test scores and then I get depressed and log out of the Common App site.</p>
<p>Oh those test scores. Not looking forward to having to PAY to send them in.</p>
<p>Hey guys, I will be applying too

<p>2 good recommendations from professors that know how to write them well</p>
<p>And I’m working pretty hard on my essay</p>
<p>I know I sound repetitive but I think you have a great shot!</p>
<p>Cousin: Yeah, your high school stats aren’t really that good, but your college ones are great…good thing they look at college more-so than college! I think you have a good shot.</p>
<p>I’m really holding onto the hope that the reason why we don’t see that many posting on here this year is because there are so few of us actually applying! I will take anything that will increase my chances of being accepted!</p>
<p>Yeah, hopefully we’ll all be seeing each other in a couple months at orientation!</p>
<p>I just can’t believe we have to wait until May to get an admission decision. I thought waiting in high school took a long time. I don’t know how I’m going to get through this semester.</p>
<p>You’ll be kept busy with papers and finals.</p>

<p>COULDN’T HAVE SAID IT BETTER. </p>
<p>On a brighter note, what would everyone plan to get involved with on campus? Intramural sports? Student government? Greek life (if you aren’t affiliated already)?</p>

<p>Does any know if if is easier to get into some programs or colleges than others and how important are test scores and the high school record ? Getting really nervous already sent the supplement:)</p>
