<p>Nope but I know St. Paul. :D I lived in a suburb of Minneapolis (Eden Prairie).</p>
<p>And as a totally random and pointless question, are you guys averaging your top 2 SATII scores on the wiki or are you averaging all SATII scores submitted?</p>
<p>Um.. it was actually my top two SATIIs. I don't wanna average all mine, I have a really bad one that pulls it down =) Thanks for the ACT lol, it wasn't really a big deal..</p>
<p>And i don't think an interview would do me good.. so I'm grateful that Stanford doesn't do em. I was so relieved when I found out..</p>
<p>itida - I haven't even submitted Part I, so you're ahead as far as I am concerned.</p>
<p>And dude, is chillaxin a combo of chill and relaxin? Cuz if it is, I just totally got that =)</p>
<p>Lol, don't worry idita; I submitted Part I about 3 days ago. :D</p>
<p>Hahah, technically, chillaxin is a combo of those words, but I actually chose it because I'm Chinese, I play/coach lacrosse (lax), and my name has the word xin in it. :]</p>
<p>Did anyone else notice that the teacher recommendation forms are different when you print them after completing form 1 online? Mine has a 7 digit number in the top right corner. Wondering what it is...</p>
<p>It's your individual application number I believe. It helps them file your stuff.</p>
<p>oh no! I gave my teachers forms before I turned in the part one online..do you think those forms will be okay? I think it won't matter too much..</p>
<p>hmm now I'm stuck on the essays. I'm not sure what I want to write =/</p>
<p>question- do teachers and my principal have to fill in the answers to the questions on the recommendation form? is it all right if they just attach a letter of recommendation?</p>
<p>Don't worry, itida, I did that too. In fact, my teachers actually sent in the forms a week before I turned in Part I. There's another thread on this somewhere, and everyone who did the same last year said it turned out fine for them.</p>
<p>Fuzzylogic, there should be another thread on your question somewhere on this forum, though I don't know where. I believe the answer was yes, but if you're especially concerned, you can call the Office of UGrad Admissions to make sure. :]</p>
<p>According to what I've heard, its fine if they attach the letter of recommendation, although you could ask them to fill up the comparison boxes to be on the safe side.</p>
<p>Yeesh! My stats look terrible in the wiki!!!</p>
<p>:D</p>
<p>pyleela, don't get distressed lol. your stats are actually pretty awesome if you are coming from a competitive school. nonetheless, take heart that stanford will look through the stats and will look at your ECs, essays, and teacher recommendations.</p>
<p>This is so depressing... I hope I get work done during the weekend, cuz doesn't it feel like you always want to start your application, but you just never find the time? Sigh.</p>
<p>Btw - where is everyone else applying?</p>
<p>Btw, chillaxin you spelled itida's name wrong. I just had to say because you and I both spelled it different ways and I got confused =)</p>
<p>Lol, that's 1 am in the morning for you. Hence, I got it right a few hours afterwards. :]</p>
<p>hahaha! yes julyinoh, I know what you mean. it's almost everyday in the morning (especially since october started) that I wake up and tell myself "i'm going to work on apps tonight!!" and then there's no time =/</p>
<p>I'm applying to 10 other privates and UC's...I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to finish all my apps though :X</p>
<p>Ah.. Eden Prairie. the rich 'burbs. :P haha...</p>
<p>For me, it's always: gonna work... gonna work. ... then i just stare at the dang MS Word window for a couple of hours, and never get anywhere. The only real work is when I lie in bed and kinda dream up some essay... lol.
That roommate essay is ticking me off. I'm somewhere in the half formal/casual tone that is thowing my writing.</p>
<p>12 privates! :( im sooo screwed.</p>
<p>Wow! I went down from about 10 privates to 4 or 5. I don't think I could handle writing that many essays!!! :D Good luck to all of you! Right now I'm just focusing on Stanford though. :)</p>
<p>Yea I haven't even thought about other colleges yet.. just trying to get my Stanford app in. I got the roommate essay done, but still gotta do all the other ones.</p>
<p>I'm gonna try to do all my homework tonight so I have all day tomorrow to work on the app. Now please God let it happen..</p>
<p>I think we should set a day where we all promise to do the essay(s) and to stay away from CC (the procrastination tool). lol It would probably help everyone.</p>
<p>hmm my problem is like devaaki said---I just end up staring at MS word :( like today. I made time and I didn't have anything to say!</p>
<p>I promised myself to finish a rough draft of the long essay this weekend..not sure if that's happening</p>
