why is it important to view applications so early?

Applying to College
1

<p>everyone at school was like "omg, UC applications came out". so i checked on their site and found out that it's like a 6 step process (more or less, i forget) and you can't save the work you've done.</p>

<p>so my question is, why is it so important to people that the application is already out? i knew what the essay topics were before the application came out and it doesn't take a lot of time and you're sending it in november...</p>

<p>and also, is it possible to take the SAT I again in december as a senior? i heard you can but i'm not sure.</p>

<p>thanks everyone. and to that person who responded in my prior thread (about the uc essay), i'm not really looking for an excuse. i'm anemic, and i have this weird joint disease where i have to go to the hospital to get checked up everytime so i'm in pain most of the time (hence why sometimes i slack off b/c i can't concentrate with all the pain). i just was wondering if i could say something besides that because i don't really want to tell them all about my medical history.</p>

<p>any input is appreciated ^_^;;</p>

Some colleges accept December or even January scores. Check your colleges' policies to be sure.</p>
