<p>“messing around in the little kids playground”</p>
<p>Out of context that’s be REALLY sketchy…</p>
<p>If you’re thinking I play with small kids, than no. I hate kids, they’re dirty, horrific little rascals. I hang out with kids my age (high school).</p>
<p>Haha, a fairly damning indictment of small children but not entirely inaccurate…</p>
<p>Smart kids are pedophiles. Interesting.</p>
<p>ha, kidding.</p>
<p>Actually, I’m neither smart or a socialite, but I do know a person!
The valedictorian for my class. She got a 35 on the ACT and a 2350 on the SAT. She’s also gorgeous. I mean drop dead gorgeous. Pretty big almond eyes, wavy silky brown hair, skinny with a body, and tall! She’s also pale. Not to mention that she’s loaded, both her parents drive this Mercedes Benz around, and I think she got into UPenn. Not to mention that she’s a socialite, the most popular girl in the school and the Senior Class president, Student Council President, FBLA Vice President, National Honor Society Secretary, School Council Representative and co-chairperson of Special Olympics in my school. She’s also one heck of a speaker, and a very good debater, and an only child. Every boy in my school wish they were her boyfriend, and every girl want to become just like her. ( Sometimes, I wish I’m her too). She’s the girl that got EVERYTHING. Smart, gorgeous, rich, and a socialite.</p>
<p>I’ll admit I don’t have a 2400 nor am I the valedictorian of my class but I do have decent stats along with a good social life. I personally can’t live a life with only academics; you need to enjoy life to get through the stress- that’s the way it has worked for me.</p>
<p>My friend - who got a 2000+ on the SATs, is in 4 APs senior year and has a 4.0 GPA - has a huge social life. She goes out partying every friday and saturday and gets totally wasted. =]</p>
<p>I get high A’s… kinda a social life 
mostly through my EC’s though. You meet lots of fun and interesting people through there. But my main school friends? Usually only at school >.> I have something all day on Saturday’s and Sundays (including the evening) blech!</p>
<p>I have a 3.8 and I don’t spend that much time studying, I could do better but I feel that when I’m 50 and I look back on high school, am I gonna be glad that I slaved around for 4 years and was miserable and got into Harvard or that I had a good balance, was happy, and still got into a pretty good school? I’ll take the latter and enjoy four years of my life.</p>
<p>Social life and intellect are mutually exclusive. I’d rather have the social life then an amazingly high score, i’d say.</p>
<p>yes it’s possible.</p>
<p>look at UCLA.</p>
<p>I have a 4.0 (unweighted) and a 34 on my ACT. I have a fairly active social life. I have a boyfriend of about six months. We typically go out once during the week and twice or so on the weekends, and then I have a group of friends from school and another group from my main EC, and I typically go out with each group once a weekend. I attend football games for my school on a semi-regular basis.
So I’d say I have a fair balance of academics and social.</p>
<p>Yeah, I give props to those extremely intelligent people that have lives, and don’t live high school obsessing over harvard to the extent that they don’t have friends/social life.</p>
<p>I am taking 5 APs this year (senior) and completely have a social life. I hang out with my girlfriend all of the time and go out and party. But then again, I don’t study at all. I do all of my homework though.</p>
<p>Yea I agree with what people said. It’s possible. </p>
<p>I had a longer post but it got deleted. So I’ll make this short. I have 5.0 and 2350+ and I always have like 10-15 people at my house every Saturday/Friday night. And I think it really depends on how much time you need to accomplish your academic goals. I didn’t do too much prepping for SAT.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>nothing</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>i was pretty much every college’s dream applicant,
but i would have given up a lot of it for a good group of friends</p>
<p>the name of this thread describes me :)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m really happy for you.</p>
<p>Why r u soooo mean to me!?!?!?!</p>
