<p>Hey everyone! I am a student-athlete from Argentina.
How about if we post the schools we are interested in and our stats?
Let's keep it in english! So we can practice.
I have been offered multiples scholarships from my athletic skills.</p>
<p>Current universities I am interested in: Northwestern and Duke.
STATS: Let's just say that I got accepted already!</p>
<p>Its prohibited to say in our own language in The Official South American Thread?</p>
<p>By The Way, Im Brazilian.</p>
<p>sorry… I forgot to mention Brazil. Well that’s another reason why we should speak in english!</p>
<p>Sup guys,</p>
<p>I am not South American but think that part of the world rocks. Wicked dances, cool music and beautiful women.</p>
<p>Glad you like South America!
Every country has its different cultures, but at the same time we all have the same sense of life. That’s just me though.
Anyways, I went to England and I absolutely loved it! I didn’t have time to visit Scotland, Ireland nor Wales, but I heard that it is beautiful!</p>
<p>I Like Argentina, but Brazilians have a “rivalry” between Brazil and Argentina. :(</p>
<p>And guys from Europa and USA, Buenos Aires isnt the capital from Brazil.</p>
<p>How Old Are You solundecided1? , what sports do you practice?</p>
<p>Hey Lyyro, I must agree with you, there is a lot of rivalry between Argentina and Brazil. But what most people don’t know is that Argentina has rivalry with Chile and Uruguay too.
Anyways, I am 17 going on 18. I prefer to keep my sport private!</p>
<p>Rivalry between Argentina and Chile/Uruguay? LOL, thats new to me.</p>
<p>I practice HandBall, BasketBall and Tennis. A little Futsal/Footbal too.</p>
<p>My GPA is a little low but i will improve in the last two years. I get into the idea of an USA College in the end of 2010. </p>
<p>“Vestibulares” is ****ing different from the selection of USA. We dont need to worry about GPA, EC’s, anything. But the colleges sucks. ( Better than Argentina 
)</p>
<p>And we have a lot of Classes in High School. I have Fourteen obligatory classes.</p>
<p>And i will have a lot of difficulty to “convert” to “American GPA”.</p>
<p>Maybe it will make my chances highers! lol</p>
<p>And i need to improve my english. Maybe i will live in USA a whole year!</p>
<p>But for now… I only thing in the Big names. =/ I dont know much about this “World” of “American Colleges”</p>
<p>EC’s im working on it.</p>
<p>Again, sorry for my bad english.</p>
<p>Do you have an Messenger Mail?</p>
<p>South America=football, football and more football…everyone plays football and I simply love that!!
Pele
Maradona
Ronaldo…ooooooooooooo…I love them!!</p>
<p>Any american reading this, football=soccer</p>
<p>Maybe i’ll apply for playing soccer, i saw many videos of Soccer in Universities, they really suck.</p>
<p>Harvard Sucks too. Maybe it will help to get into a nice college.</p>
<p>You should contact the soccer coach at individual universities for that. </p>
