Forgive for reviving this crazy dead forum, but I have time tonight!
Chow? Loved it during plebe summer, but it slowly gets bland as the menus repeat. Not terrible, not the best. MUCH better than my high school and theres always enough to eat.
Miss the most? Family and friends. Be smart and spend time with them before you go. (music and movies too!!)
Killer Course? Calculus. Chemistry can be hard for a lot of plebes too but Calc is a killer. Prepare yourself with some small reveiw on limits. Just memorize the derivatives.
How to get in? BE YOURSELF! I don't care how motivated you are you are going to hate this place during plebe summer either the whole time or at least a lot of it. Don't accidently get accepted into this school. Be a likable leader, and be humble. Other than that the obvious...SAT/ACT, group leaders, sports, etc.
Plebe summer survival. Run. If you are horrendous at swimming learn to tread water but otherwise you will be fine. Most importantly just keep your sense of humor (lol never ever put "this isnt as hard as I thought" on your first "Though of the Day submission.) KEEP A SENSE OF HUMOR!
Toughest academic issue? For me its writing papers. Use the writing center. If you do they send an email to ur teacher which really (perhaps it shouldnt be) is a letter grade booster for effort.
Laundry service? Not too bad in my opinion, others have had trouble. When the ac year starts ask Mom and Dad for extra black dress socks and white boxers. Your crotch will thank you.
