Edvin who? The physician or the chemist?

I am so glad this thread gradually comes alive! If all the Romanians that apply to US posted here once in their lives, I bet we'd have the biggest thread on CC!

Yes to both your questions. On top of that, they are generally very good. Many of them have been to at least one international olympiad such as IPhO for Edvin.

Hello, fellow Romanian here. I have a question for you guys: what did you submit as tax return, as in what document? Cause I'm drawing a blank here, and no one I've asked seams to know.
Good luck to everyone!

I've applied to Caltech, Carleton, Columbia, Dartmouth, Harvard, Macalester, MIT, Mt Holyoke, Princeton, Reed, Wellesley, Williams. I've been rejected early by Yale and I plan to apply to IUB 2nd round when I come back home.

I have submitted some tax forms (fisa fiscala). Your parents may ask their employers for it, but they are not available for 2007 yet, so I submitted the 2006 ones. I also submitted a statement from the employer stating their salary for December, but I don't think it is a must.

OK, congrats Edvin for your IPhO *envy* *OK, not really... not VERY much into physics* I like the fact that you applied to Duke (my *dream* college)
What are your first choices, Edvin & Angelutza?
