Summer Science Program (SSP) 2009

<p>Oh goody I got my email too. I applied to both campuses but my preference is Ojai because I live closer.</p>

<p>same. got my email</p>

<p>I got my mail as well. Will be discussing the new KVPY fellowship development and SAT official report with him now I guess.
I applied for either venue but as per preference? I just put Ojai coz I always wanted to travel to LA one day hehe.
Heck! I have never gone outside India! Or even lived in another city all by myself even for a few days...
Going to the US will be some experience I guess :p
I'm seriously hoping I make it through on the basis of my essays. I hope I wasn't an atheist so I could pray :D</p>

<p>Go emails! They must send them out in batches...</p>

<p>I put no preference for Ojai vs Socorro. In retrospect, I should have, because Socorro would conflict with Girls State... but if I get in I won't complain ;)</p>

<p>I just realised I'll be spending my birthday at the campus if I go to Ojai lol.
In any case I think I will be missing my 1st semester exams(W00t!) in 12th standard and the KVPY summer program :-( if selected for SSP :p</p>

<p>i asked this in the last page but i didnt really get much of a response.</p>

<p>whatd you guys put for astronomy? is it ok if i focus number one on mainly physics and just state i have a general interest in astronomy since i dont know much about it? or do i look stupid?</p>

<p>HEy guys! There seems to be a problem. When I try to print out my scores from collegeboard, the sheet shows my previous test scores! I only want to show my 790 in math lv 2, not my 710 that I got a year ago. What do I do? I thought collegeboard changed its policy of allowing which score you can choose to send.</p>

<p>thats for march^
and plus, this isnt for college
its for ssp :p
just show it all
doesnt matter
i mean, it says "show all" so..ud be lying if u didnt</p>

<p>^ Oh alright.</p>

<p>710 isn't really something to be ashamed of lol! 790 is wow! but 710 won't make you look to stupid if its there on the same page...</p>

<p>I'd be spending my birthday at SSP if I was admitted to either :) I'm just that lucky... ;)</p>

<p>Hey, I sent them my 750 Math II, so don't worry.</p>

<p>Ojai is definitely better. :)</p>

<p>...and so the campus wars begin. again.</p>

Just be honest about it. If I remember correctly, you could write about one topic in EITHER astronomy or physics. SSP isn't all about astronomy. Many people had little astronomy background going into the program - myself included.</p>

<p>Wait! Did anyone get the acceptance/rejection yet? I'm too busy to finish writing my essay+I'm too lazy to finish it. I'll try to finish it on Friday this week. Is it just fine to send it at the beginning of March?</p>

<p>Relax! We've hardly received our 'Application received' mails yet... No one's in/out. And I guess you're good for round 2. Make it asap unless you are an international Olympiad winner or something lol.</p>

<p>So, after I submit my app after Feb 20th, is it only going to be reviewed after the (after everyone else submitted theirs) March deadline, or is it going to be reviewed immediately?</p>

<p>I <em>think</em> it'll be after the March deadline but I'm not entirely sure?</p>

<p>i asked, and basically theres a round in between the feb and march deadlines. So if ur app gets there after 2/20 but before next friday (3/7), itll be reviewed in the 2nd group.</p>

<p>Huh, so does that mean we'll be getting our decisions by 3/7, do you think?</p>

<p>socorro forever! <33333</p>
