<p>I took the day off today to relax from this crazy weekend of filling out applications and sending papers out and whatnot. I am going to try to enjoy my senior year and keep up my grades, even though I should also be studying for calc :(</p>
<p>I'm from greater toronto area, canada.</p>
<p>I'm going to try to do some schoolwork, i feel realllly behind everyone at my school who go crazy over gr 12. marks...</p>
<p>but I have to say, it's really hard for me to focus on school right now, especially while waiting for Cornell's decision.</p>

<p>just keep telling yourself how good it will feel when you get in.
best of luck!!</p>
<p>chandlerbling...what school do you go to?? i live around albany too</p>
<p>or keep telling yourself about how terrible itll feel when you don't get in</p>
<p>turkkizi91: I go to Bethlehem HS
how about you?</p>
<p>oh funny. i go to emma willard.
which college are you applying to?</p>
<p>Funny application story time while we wait: I made a mistake in the Optional section of the app, so I sent in a request to the admissions office to change it. I didn't get a response, and it really wasn't terribly important, so I sent in another request saying that they could leave it as it was. The day after I sent the 2nd request in, I got a response to the FIRST request saying it's fine, they'd change it. So now I've just sent in a THIRD request saying that that's great and I'd really prefer they'd change it and I'm not going to change my mind any more, really.</p>
<p>...</p>
<p>I'm such a spazz. I really hope they don't attach a note to my file saying something like "_____ _____ asked us to change and unchange something 3 times. ___ ____ is an idiot."</p>
<p>turkkizi91: haha really? that's cool
I'm applying to HumEc, how about you?</p>
<p>chandlerbling: im applying to CALS...ughh december 15th couldnt come any sooner!</p>
<p>ahh i feel bad cuz my sat scores were so low, 1210/1600, but everything else was fine. what did you guys get? the wait is killing me slowly.</p>
<p>karajanhra: haha that is funny! Its okay. today i freaked because i thought I wrote my supplement essay completely wrong and even called in to ask about it! lol.</p>
<p>ndnguy: i got a 1420/1600 or a 2190. i'm applying to engineering though. Really nervous. ahh</p>
<p>I got really lucky on the SAT, I think. I didn't study-- I just sort of waltzed in and got a 1480/2220 with a perfect CR. And I'm really not all that intelligent. Maybe it was all of those animals I sacrificed to the Gods of Admisssion.</p>

<p>I worked in Irvine this summer in that huge Taco Bell building. Turns out there's a law firm on the fifth floor. Irvine is awesome! <33</p>
<p>That sounds great! I'm going to study law!</p>
<p>Oh... I'm also going to be waiting to be contacted by an alum for my interview for CALS...</p>
<p>Anyone have any tips on that?</p>
<p>I absolutely hate interviews, though my guidance counselor says I'm awesome at them. Don't know how that happened.</p>
<p>my best single sitting score (I took the SATs twice) is a 1510/2200, and my composite is a 1550/2290.</p>
<p>And I completely agree (about the wait slowly killing me)...I just found out the other 2 people applying to Cornell ED and I flipped out. It was a bad time in my life. 41 days left!</p>
