They don't even reply to the mail and their admission process doesn't even resemble close to a process that can test a applicant's talent. They need scores...only.

LOL..It is not worth enough I think. People who have given SAT for the fun of it and people without an essay have got in too..So it's not surprising that Purdue is considered difficult to survive by many..lol.

This is for ALL of US out there waiting for that package that, frankly, determines the next four-twelve amazing years of our lives. Some letters will arrive before April 1 and some might arrive later...but one thing is for sure: April First is the quintessential day of our college decision.

So, for those of you, waiting for those faithful letters, whether it is thin or fat (but preferably the fat one), arriving sometimes late March and early April, this group is for you.

It might be hypocritical for me to say this but try not to let that one letter consume your entire life. If you don't get that (insert college name here) acceptance letter, it does NOT mean that it's the end of the world or that you're not good enough. Sometimes, it’s just meant to be. There are so many paths for us to take. One closed door leads to another and life is all about decisions. Even if we don't get into to school that we always had dream of, we are blessed with the thousands of other colleges that eagerly wants us.

Of course, I’m going to jump up and down like Tom Cruise did on Oprah and scream like I just step on a gecko when I find out that I got into _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . But hey… if I don't…I’m sure McDonald’s always needs awesome burger flippers. >_<
