Class of 2014 From Nepal

<p>^^ my account says that my ISFAA has been accepted… so i wouldn’t worry much… unless they specifically email you…</p>

<p>I don’t think Colgate will e-mail because they say that it’s the student’s responsibility ot ensure that everything arrives at the campus on time.</p>

<p>^ya…saw that too…but its their responsibility to ATLEAST update their website to say that CSS is a must for int’l students…i mean…everywhere on their site…i checked it thrice…everywhere it says either CSS or ISFAA…n now this…i hope they accept the ISFAA now
@3333
dude…u submitted paper apps ho?..that’s the only way they said they’d waive CSS re…</p>

<p>@ccp: really?? so mean!!</p>

<p>@sikthsick: i filled & submitted my commonapp online if that’s what you’re talking about…all the rest were submitted via snail mail… they also accepted my friend’s ISFAA and even emailed him when app was complete… so i don’t really think it matters!!! … try mailing them though… if anything comes up do post it here…</p>

<p>^
If it’s written in website, why one need to worry? If Colgate has waived someone’s CSS and has sent email to submit CSS to other, why don’t u email Colgate directly stating “WHAT’S THIS DISCRIMINATION ABOUT? Is ‘DISCRIMINATION’ also a part of your rule?”…lol.</p>

O Keto, what was your grade in GP/Literature?</p>

<p>Did you guys fill the CSS Profile in Nepalese Rupees? Or in USD?? Reply ASAP!!</p>

<p>^^LOL…Atti…LOL^^</p>

<p>It’s in USd. sORRY! if that was serious question!</p>

<p>And nobody answered this: Does Colgate discard paper application…My email says yes! they accept only online application…If you mail, you will be at disadvantage re!</p>

<p>^ I’m assuming that either you have not yet filed the CSS Profile because if you have had, you’d have definitely seen the very first question that asks:

  • You may select the currency in which you will complete this application. Please indicate your selection here. *</p>

<p>OR</p>

<p>You should go to Tilganga ASAP! ;)</p>

<p>

</p>

</p>

<p>Is this question even applicable to us?</p>

<p>hey 400…Sorry…Actually, I have seen CSS once…but never filled it…never required to…But I thought it was the same with ISFAA…coz its an improved version of ISFAA…my apologies! LOL</p>

<p>@everyone
guys…anyone applied to rollins college???if yes, have you received your acceptance emails???</p>

<p>I felt fortunate to awaken from my weeks-long life-threatening coma in the Zimbabwe orphanage in which I was raised from infancy, until I realized the building was ablaze. After evacuating all the inhabitants including any stray insects who were drawn to the flames, I doused the fire with a water pump I had improvised from an old accordion bellows (on which I often played Bach fugues a la Albert Schweitzer) and a bamboo-like plant I had discovered in the jungle. I named the plant Medusa Abandona after my now forgiven American born mother, who forsook me in my cradle, only after it turned out to be an unknown genus and promised to have exciting anti-cancer medicinal qualities as well. When I was convinced that everyone in the orphanage was safe, I escaped the holocaust in the solar powered wheel chair I had developed to give myself more mobility after the unfortunate accident I had as a child, breaking my seventh vertebra while wrestling a lion that had terrorized the village.</p>

<p>When I was seven, the only doctor within a 300 mile radius took me under his wing. I shadowed him for ten years, which was quite difficult when you consider the dense jungle foliage and lack of sunlight at ground level. The fact that he was a witch doctor should in no way denigrate his skills nor the efficacy of his spells. If you accept me into your next medical class, I intend to teach my fellow students a series of hexes that will eliminate the need for Viagra, Allegra, Grecian Formula and Formula 409.</p>

<p>Most of my adolescence I spent draining swamps, eliminating mosquitoes and generally reducing the malarial plague in three contiguous countries in equatorial Africa. It was only after saving the lives of ten’s of thousands of people that I decided to become a doctor in hope that over the course of my career I might be able to save just a few more. The journey to medicine was difficult. It was a choice between being a doctor and being a shoemaker, but after I taught everyone in my village how to make their own shoes there was no need to pursue this noble profession.</p>

<p>Harvard was reluctant to let me go after I got straight "A"s as the first graduate in their new correspondence bachelors degree program but with five majors and 12 books to my credit they finally acknowledged (see attached letter) that they had nothing left to teach me. My economics honors thesis was entitled “Grade Inflation at Harvard: The Great Hoax.”</p>

<p>Given my academic prowess, imagine then how mortified I was to receive only a 44 aggregate AMCAS score. Those of you at AMCAS reading this, who may have contributed to writing the April exam, should be ashamed of yourselves. In the passage on “Halitosis” you referred to the sufferer as having “bad breadth”. The patient could certainly be circumferentially challenged but I assumed a typo had been committed and that you meant he had “bad breath” and answered accordingly. My fellow hapless examinees’ incorrect answers to question 39 should be stricken and the exam be recalibrated accordingly.</p>

<p>In short, becoming a doctor may seem humdrum and a come down compared to my life so far, but I am willing to unlearn a few things so I won’t be so far ahead of my fellow medical classmates. And don’t worry about my disability; I can still perform an angioplasty and thread several needles while doing 500 one-armed finger pushups.</p>

<p>I applied to Rollins as well…Although they tell me that Ill be eligible only for 20 k scholarships…and that <strong><em>bleeps</em></strong>*</p>

<p>Hey the …guy was selected to John Hokins Medical…forgot to tell…and it’s so so competitive for internationals…like 1%</p>

<p>this essay is exactly like super-hero stuff, only much more awesome…can people be like this??? O_o</p>
