<p>I’ll right Melody I’ll bite. Obviously I’ll pick Yale…hahaha. There’s a reason I didn’t apply to Harvard…</p>
<p>On a quick note, I had my interview yesterday. The lady and I talked for over an hour and she really didn’t even have to ask her “interview” questions, so I take that as a good sign. </p>
<p>So, here’s my this or that.</p>
<p>GREAT interview or GREAT recs?</p>
<p>Great recs 'cause there are more of them. The people also know you better.</p>
<p>Mail or online notification? :P</p>
<p>Online! :)</p>
<p>Who could give up the singing bulldog?</p>
<p>SAT or ACT?</p>
<p>I think it should be online first, and then mail to reduce the waiting time for it to come, esp for internationals :).</p>
<p>SAT definitely.</p>
<p>A in regular or a B in Honors/AP?</p>
<p>Hm, I guess B in Honors
Guys, apparently the people in the Stanford forum are trying to “beat” us in number of posts. Go check it out, I think you’ll be surprised…</p>
<p>hahaha its true, they are making this a sad competition! wow…so sad…</p>
<p>Victor,</p>
<p>Really, the purpose of the SCEA thread wasn’t what you construed at all.
Though we feigned our dogged intention to “defeat the Yalies,” that was only a superficial moniker for a more lighthearted quest.
What we Stanford SCEAers participated in today was more like a “sleepover” of sorts: having fun, getting laughs, working together, and bringing our SCEA community even closer together through some late-night fun.
Though we engaged in a “war,” it was hardly more than a device to further the bonding of our community.
We wish you the same luck in your SCEA hopes as we wish for ourselves, just as such competitive schools, and their competitive applicants, deserve.</p>
<p>-Prussia! and Starmie
Stanford SCEA Ambassadors</p>
<p>^the enemy speaks!</p>
<p>The last few posts add up to the cutest thing ever. I’m grinning like a fool.</p>
<p>haha late night fun, nice. Thanks for the post Prussia and Starmie, and good luck with your SCEA apps too!</p>
<p>bahaha! That jst makes me think of how awesome (and slightly sad) it would be if we all get into Yale and figure who was what username!</p>
<p>I can’t believe only 16 more days are left. Good thing I have lots of concerts coming up this next week; I need to get my mind off of it for a while!</p>
<p>lol starmie…oh pokemon xD</p>
<p>so they consider–
academics
state/national/international awards
extracurriculars
sports
leadership
volunteer
work
essays
legacy
underrepresented minority
region/school
counselor recs
teacher recs
additional rec
interview</p>
<p>anything else I am missing?</p>
<p>Supplemental materials
Rank, unless you include that in academics
General compatibility with the university</p>
<p>My waiting time for SCEA results was severely cut down by a Disney trip, 5 day Thanksgiving weekend, and a 4 day Immaculate Conception weekend within the span of 3weeks. I’ve only been to school one day in the last 2 weeks and we had shortened periods that day because of mass.</p>
<p><3 Catholic Schools</p>
<p>^Stupefy - I feel the same way… I’m getting my hopes up way too high </p>
<p>Out of curiosity, who is applying to Harvard as well as Yale?</p>
<p>I’m applying to Harvard and Princeton too</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m doing the typical HYPSM plan.</p>
