<p>Hey everybody,
For those of you who have been accepted for '09 and for those who love Yale, Please tell me if I am the Yale type?
I’m in all AP/ Honors classes except for regualr math and I get A/A- in all except a B+ in one. I’m waiting for my SAT scores but they will probably at least a 650 on every section (hopefully!)
Anyway, I’m a junior and next year, I will be editor of my school newspaper, head delegate for Model UN and I am this year. I have been tutoring ESL students for three years. I have an art portfolio to submit to colleges and I intend of majoring in art/art history. Four years ago, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and I have started a support group in my county, I’m Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s inspirational keynote speaker for corporate events, and I’m really excited because I was invited to speak before the House of Representatives and meet with Senators in Washington D.C.this June on the topic of Stem Cell research.
My recomendations will be exceptional and my essay will be quirky.
I’m extremely liberal and politically active/savvy!
I’m deciding between applying early either to Brown or to UPenn, but I am interested in Yale and I’m spending the summer this year at UPenn for art.
Thanks for the input!</p>
<p>I think you know the answer, so why ask? Be confident! You’ll do great.</p>
<p>Thanks for the encouragement Danish kid, but do you go to Yale?</p>
<p>I was just accepted, and I think you would be a very strong candidate for admission to Yale. From what you’ve posted, I know that I would love to see you there!</p>
<p>I do think you are the Yale type, but for a rather different reason. Your post comes across as if you have tons of confidence. I suspect that you already think that Yale is going to accept you. Pure speculation on my part, though.</p>
<p>I will next year</p>
<p>Chezfleur- While I am confident, I have to say I don’t think I’d be accepted. Coming from my area, so many smart, talented, and witty students apply that it is virtually impossible to be accepted. I didn’t even think I’m ivy caliber but thank you for your advice.</p>
