<p>Hey all, it's midnight on a Friday and I am at home working on college applications (oh boy!) so I thought I would drop by this site. I am a high school senior currently in the process of applying to three colleges: Indiana University, Purdue University, and Northwestern University. I feel like I have a general idea of what my chances are but I was wondering if you all would be willing to give me any advice! Please let me know if there are any other colleges that you think would be a good fit for me. Thanks & I will try to keep this short and sweet :)</p>

<p>You will get into Purdue and Indiana for sure. </p>

<p>Northwestern is a high-match.</p>

<p>Thanks, any other advice?</p>

<p>how is it a friday night anywhere on this planet? Ithought it was saturday…</p>

<p>Purdue and Indiana good to go for you (submit your ACT by the way, its better comparatively). Northwestern is a reach, but if you were to apply to Northeastern in Boston, that would be a safety (just saying…haha).</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>@xAAAx: Facepalm…look at the post date/time.</p>

7

<p>Technically it would still be Saturday since saturday starts at midnight & the post was at 12:19</p>

8

<p>One word: timezones.</p>

9

<p>regardless of the time zone, it wasn’t friday. any place east of here is a day ahead and anything west is no more than 3 hours behind, except Hawaii and the islands</p>

10

<p>Lol what</p>

<p>This is what it says on my screen: Yesterday, 09:19 PM </p>

<p>And I’m in California. </p>

<p>Maybe your forum time zone is off?</p>

11

<p>hmm…maybe it is off</p>

12

<p>It says I posted it at 11:19 on September 11th. I can’t remember what time it actually was, so if the board was messed up it may have actually been Saturday, my bad ;)</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice everybody!</p>
