<p>copying is bad?? i wanna be a friggin clone if it gets me into harvard! is everyone who wants good scores a clone?? if you wanna 2400 sat does it make you a clone of another person?? gimmie a break, if you think that wanting to be a clone of a person who has had success is bad then you definitely have no idea how this works. If being a clone will get me into harvard, then i wanna be a clone.</p>
<p>i couldn't agree more</p>
<p>Hahahahah.... Hope2getrice.... I am speechless.... not only does it sound to me like half your post is bull*<em>*, but it also seems that there's PRETENTIOUS written in the upper right hand corner, and ARROGANCE written in the footnote. Anyways, I think you guys, no we... all of us, have got it all confused. I applied to Harvard Early Action single choice, and up to a few days ago, I was REALLY worried about NOT getting in. I'd have to say that I'm an average applicant, and I admit that I too DON'T have a perfect GPA, I too am NOT valedictorian, and I too DO NOT have perfect SAT and SAT II scores. Not to mention that at least 3 other people applied EASC to Harvard from my school, and 2 of them have better academic stats than I did. The third is a girl with about a 13 person legacy and has pretty much a guaranteed acceptance, so there's nothing I can do about that. Well, I realized that I'll most likely get rejected, and at that point, I didn't even care. The world isn't over, your LIFE isn't over, if you don't get into Harvard, or Yale, or Princeton, etc. You should go to a school because you will be happy there, because you truly want to go there, not because of the school's name and prestige. I'm not saying don't go to Ivies (because I applied to 4 of them)... if you love Harvard, if you're happy at Yale, if your best friends are at Cornell, then great. What I'm trying to say is don't let this whole college process get to your head. Besides, the college you go to doesn't necessarily determine how successful you'll be. Your ambition, your determination, your confidence in yourself, will determine your success. If you're ambitious, you believe in yourself, and you put your heart and soul into what you do, then you will be successful. I guarantee you that there are successful geniuses who graduated from state schools or even community colleges, and clueless dumba</em>*es who graduated from or go to Harvard. Alrighty guys, I hope this boosted some of your morale, I'm gonna' go 'cuz I have an SAT II tomorrow. G'nite.</p>
<p>i love it when people make huge posts trying to sound smart but hust copying the same things others have said which have no relevance to the issue at hand</p>
<p>I love it when people don't care to understand a post and say it was copied from somebody else's post when nobody else's post says anything in that post. I was just trying to make some people feel happier/more confident about themselves. I wasn't trying to sound smart or insult anybody. No need for any retaliating comments.</p>
<p>mmk sorry 'bout that
ill keep it to myself from now on</p>
<p>Thanks man... I appreciate that... You're one of the few that admits to their mistakes...</p>
<p>he probably isnt going to harvard... ive been to harvard to visit during the school year. there were classrooms... with kids studying math... AT 10 in the evening... ON FRIDAY (ORIENTATION PARTY DAY OR SOMETHING)... seriously people... sheesh</p>
<p>hope 2 go to rice- no matter how much time you took to be a stellar applicant, you did not take time to learn manners, and that is something that will matter for the rest of your life, not just the half hour an admissions committee takes to look at your "17 friggin' APs"</p>
<p>Don't worry, everybody else, I'm trying to transfer to Harvard, and have visited there a lot, stayed with a friend who goes there, talked to a lot of people, I've only met genuinely passionate and nice people.</p>
<p>Why is everyone spewing non-perfect SAT scores as an indicator of an "ordinary person"?! People who obsess over scores and GPA aren't ordinary at all!!</p>
