<p>She is crushed ( I personally expected), lacked everything outside of books. Some community service.</p>

<p>Was accepted to UChicago & U of Notre Dame too. Her plan is to EDII Pomona College.</p>

<p>^ I find that very hard to believe</p>

<p>2350, 800/800/800/760, essentially 5’s across the board, and while accepted to UChicago and Notre Dame already, is doing EDII to Pomona. EDII to Pomona? Yawn. Either a ■■■■■ or KChang’s friend is lying to her about her stats and that she was accepted to UChicago/Notre Dame. I’d say either situation is equally likely.</p>
