<p>Pretty soon, the ten or so of us who post here regularly are going to be really busy getting adjusted at our new schools (congrats, everybody). Soon, we'll be posting less and less, and before you know it, we'll have moved on from the Prep School forum to College Admissions and beyond, trying to convince everyone when we post our stats that our gpa's are allowed to be lower because of our insanely awesome schools. </p>
<p>I'm really no good at goodbyes. I think you saw that on the thread about telling friends. So instead of trying to write something inspirational, I'll just spell it out: I'm going to miss everyone from here. I learned so much here and it's because of this forum that I switched schools at all. I never would have considered my new school had I not come here and I may not have even gotten in without this because it wasn't until I got here that I found out what my "hooks" were (haha yes, blairt, they're hooks ;)). When other people talked about what they wanted out of a school, I learned about what I wanted and finally, I found it at a school I had never even heard of until after I came here. </p>
<p>This was really helpful information-wise. I learned what questions to ask, what not to do on interviews, etc. But more importantly, I got more support from you guys than I could have ever asked for on an internet forum. Jonathan, we've been on almost about the same time, and I really love having someone else here who's going to a day school. I thought for the longest time that I belonged at a boarding school, but I love my new school so much that right now, I can't even picture myself at boarding school. Olivia, your posts about Choate always make me smile. And Prettyckitty, you're really sweet. SabreGabriel, you were one of the first to go to your new school from our group and you've been really supportive of everyone through all this. Chaos, you made us laugh and your passion for science and math will take you far- you'll definitely see the other science-y kids from here at MIT or something one day haha. And then there are the parents.... who, without them, this board would be so much less helpful. You guys are amazing! There are more people I'm sure I forgot to name, but I'd like to thank you, too. It's too bad the English language has so few words for gratitude because none of the words I know can really express how I feel about this. There are so few things I can talk about and honestly say, "that changed my life," but this forum actually has. Without it, I'd still be at my current school next year and I can't tell you how good it will be for me to finally get out.</p>
<p>So anyway, to the new kids: you'll never be as cool as us. :p haha just kidding. Although we were pretty cool. Seriously, though, you've got some big shoes to fill. The Prep School Admissions forum's class of '07 was amazing and I'll miss them all a ton. Of course, we'll come back occasionally to visit, but it won't be the same. Good luck everyone!!! Next year is going to rock; I can already tell!</p>
