woohoo i'm applying ED to the college. as for first marking period grades, i think if they're sweet, then it just adds to your chances, but if not, it's really not a big deal.

I'm applying ED to seas too!
but I'm pretty doubtful that I will get in.
Last year I slipped... but Columbia has always been my dream school, so I'm still hoping.

Have you guys filled all the space left for books, shows, etc?
300 characters seems a lot for me in terms of required readings i liked, for example...

I've submitted as well! SEAS ED. I'm really excited and nervous. Mid-Dec can't come quickly enough, can it.

I put down Dark Knight lol.

I'm applying to SEAS, ED. Finally rose my test scores high enough to have a decent shot (rose 200 points to 290)

Anyone writing the abstract? i'm having writers block.

I was going to submit mine yesterday too, but decided to just do it today. I went to the site though & saw this: "Due to a system upgrade, the 2008-2009 online Application for First-Year Admission is currently unavailable. Please check back later to access our application."

It'll be fixed soon right? Am I the only one applying early who didn't submit it yet?

Oh, okay. Thanks =) That makes me feel better

and for the part where it asks about the "exhibits, shows, concerts, etc" they mean broadway shows right? b/c I haven't seen any.. but was going to list television shows instead haha.. is that a bad idea?
