<p>You know you are cool when you do background checks on people’s CC posts.</p>

<p>Yeah, this was my “hook!” Thank God for AS!!!</p>

<p>^ What’s funny is I think you actually are displaying a fair amount of aspie behavior, whether you admit it or not.</p>

<p>Thanks for your diagnosis, Dr. ENTPForTheWin.</p>

<p>Actually I might still stay at Duke. I have to give my decision in by Tomorrow.
And you are being obnoxious.</p>

<p>And you are being a liar and a ■■■■■:</p>

<p>Yours cannot be an inadvertent mistake. When I made a slipup of the tongue (because I had learned English as a SL and occasionally still tend to mess up idioms), I immediately acknowledged it:</p>

<p>I KNOW that “yours truly” means “me,” but I had 2nd person pronoun on the brain. No harm, no foul.</p>

<p>2240 is my score while 2390 is my superscored score. I moved from rank 4 to 1 second semester of senior year.</p>

<p>I really have no reason to explain anything to you. Clearly you have no life trying to check on whatever I may have posted a while ago.
I’m pretty busy. I don’t have time, and I don’t care about any of your previous posts to subsequently point out how foolish you are.</p>

<p>Your posts now have already done that.</p>

<p>I confess that I have spent way too much time on this site since I joined. The novelty is starting to wear off, so I’ll take the opportunity to go “cold turkey” for now. Good night to all.</p>

<p>John117, word of advice: Duke and Caltech are VERY, very different schools.</p>

31

<p>Thanks, but I think I’m going with Duke on this one. Caltech does sound very tempting, but I visited and I don’t think hardcore science work is me.</p>

<p>Duke and Caltech are both great schools in America and I figured I can’t go wrong. I was looking more at the fit and social life. I think I’ll be more happy with Duke.
Besides, I’m into biomedical engineering and biotechnology. Program-wise, they’re both excellent.</p>

<p>Sigh…I guess I picked Caltech…sorry guys. I made a thread about my decision at the Caltech section. =/
I really wanted to go to Duke.</p>
