<p>@guyinblue I have like this huuuge list I had to make to keep track of everything… it was insane! So glad that part of my life is over</p>
<p>@sanguinee - hahaha, well more schools = more options = higher chances. 
I always thought CommonApp had a limit on the number of schools you could apply to!</p>
<p>iPhone apps 
I wish I could like transfer over like 300k of my users to boost my GPA like .3 points haha. That would be awesome. 1m users for 1 point lol</p>
<p>Anyone else targeting their regional admissions officer with Facebook ads promoting a product you made so that they will recognize it when they read your application and be flamboozled?</p>
<p>PleaseSHoP - Hahahaha now that would be niceee xD
Dont worry 3.7 is alright man. Clearly youve excelled somewhere else. Youve done your bit, now just sit back and waaaiiittt.</p>
<p>^thanks. And in case you’re wondering, I am actually doing the Facebook ads lol. She’s clicked on them twice already, so I hope that’s a good sign! Haha</p>
<p>Nice, i like the creativity haha. Pretty unique gotta say ;)</p>
<p>Man, playing sets at night is taking its toll on me. No sleep -_- plus these darn admissionsssss! :o</p>
<p>@guyinblue
Right?</p>
<p>Yep. In my class one kid got into Cornell and Dartmouth, a girl got into Wharton, another guy got into Brown, and, of course, the H acceptance (last one also got into Princeton). Ohhh, what country are you in? Edit: nvm I already know lololol</p>
<p>Getting a job doing something I like. >>>>>>>
I’ll keep persevering!
I kinda know what you mean. I at times have felt feelings bordering on disgust for snobby, coddled rich kids. Like, they should understand that most everything they possess was given to them and cease with the highfalutin airs.</p>
<p>Can someone add me to the list pleasee ? I’m on my phone, aha internets been down for a month. Perfect timing smh.</p>

<p>@alexissss - Yup! Oh my :o Im sure you go to a pretty competitive school !
Im from India ( and no, Im not a nerd 
)</p>
<p>Its okay, take your time to decide. If you like photography, why not click some and try to sell them (or click photos on demand), if you like cooking, try to work at a food joint and so on…
Yeah seriously. Most of them dont even deserve it, its just because theyve been born into a rich family. Seriously…</p>
<p>On a side note, what is it that encourages most of you guys to apply to Penn? (apart from its Ivy status and prestige?)</p>
<p>@alexis, I just noticed, we’re both from GA applying to CAS!</p>
<p>@guyinblue
Yeah. Competition makes me crazy, though. Lolololo
Wow, India! Pretty far away! :D</p>
<p>Orly? Well, I take pics, but I’m not very good…
I’ve applied to stores that sell pets and pet accessories (love animals) and perhaps I’ll try to see if libraries are hiring. I love those, too. So far I’ve only applied to a general store. Lawl </p>
<p>Yup. Like, your parents worked hard, not you. xD </p>
<p>I’m applying to Penn bc financial aid. It’s pretty crucial.</p>
<p>@sanguinee
Omg we are! I just moved here from PA some six months ago! Have you lived in GA all your life?</p>
<p>Nothing wrong with being a rich kid, people. It’s not like we can do anything about it. (I wouldn’t say I’m a stereotypical rich kid though).</p>
<p>For me it’s a few things. The fact that it remains a top education despite being a “fun” university as well as the fact that it seemed to have more of a practical focus than most top universities. There’s loads of reasons, but when looking at universities, those were some key points for me.</p>
<p>Edit: Photography was actually my main EC and the one I wrote my short answer about. (the only one of my ECs that I have reasonably impressive accolades in)</p>
<p>alexissss - haha, same case with everybody.
Haha ikr? Other side of the world :p</p>
<p>That seems to be a good place to start. All the best :D</p>
<p>Yup. Exactly. Have it but dont value it.</p>
<p>Oh yes the fin aid. In my case though, its need aware. =/</p>
<p>Maxyend - i have nothing against rich kids. I just hate those who waste their resources and dont realize how lucky they are. Some also have a ‘daddy will take care of it, no big deal’ kind of attitude.</p>
<p>Huntsman’s study abroad was appealing for me
So youre a photographer? Niceee wildlife interests you?</p>
<p>@alexissss I clicked the wrong button and couldn’t preview it cos commonapp was so slow here (i’m an international applicant). then i just checked yesterday and found that i uploaded the wrong one D:
@rebel11 I received a reply from them already. UGH…it was not funny 
i am almost crying now.</p>
<p>@Guyinblue, yes! Two of my wildlife pictures were chosen by a certain international nature magazine for their pictures of the day. (emphasis on the “national” part of the magazine 
)</p>
<p>@shontaya, commonapp cut off the last paragraph of my short answer essay and I mailed Penn and they told me to mail the full essay and they would add it to my application. This won’t affect your chances at all.</p>
<p>shontaya - Dont worry just explain your problem. Admission officers are pretty helpful. And dont worry 
Relax. :)</p>
<p>Maxyend - Wow. That is awesome. Really greatttt! Am I the only average applicant here?
One of my close friends is an avid wildlife photographer too. I like photography too. Just that a DSLR’s pretty costly for me :p</p>
<p>Shontaya, What was their reply??</p>
