<p>I’m using the Princeton Review Book. It’s kind of useful, I’m understanding what is going to be on the test, but it is extremely easy. </p>
<p>Tell me more about your brother.</p>
<p>Post 300!!! I’m a member now!!</p>
<p>Oh yeah, me and Chaos talked about this too. See how everyone is so into my brother and ignores me?</p>
<p>ugghhh…my brother. I hate him. I’m sooo jealous of him! He’s “Gifted”. He took some test that said he was very gifted, and got to go to a special school with a program to accomidate his bright young mind. I didn’t get in. I took the test in Grade Two, and was proved not be gifted. I always wanted to be and still do. He’s such an under-achiever though. He never does work, aces all the test and get’s high honors! Grrrrr… He enjoys Math and Science, and Is really amazing at them, but he wants to like nothing when he grows up. Doesn’t wnat University or even college. What a waste! Not only that, he’s amazing at sports, best on like all his teams and he doesn’t train. He was always better then me at music but quit after 2 years (he was amazingly good but has no discipline…)</p>
<p>God!! He annoys me. The only thing i’m better at is social life. I’m way more popular, but he still gets girlfriends sooo easy and totally ignores them and they still love him. So my social status is barley a victory… Ohhh…I hate how good he is at everything!</p>
<p>Sounds frustrating. I think you (okay, never mind) should talk him into living up to his “full potential”. I know that sounds really corny, and stuff, but to waste an amazing mind and so on would be a travesty. How old is he?</p>
<p>He’s 16. A year and nine days older then me. I do actually talk to him about his full potential. So does the rest of my family. They have for years. It’s pointless. I wish I had his brain. I’d make full use of it.</p>
<p>Do you have brothers and Sisters? Are they as smart as you?</p>
<p>Well, his loss. I have one sister and she’s quite bright, as well.</p>
<p>oh. great. I just feel like an idiot now. I told the whole world about my brother. And my lame jealousness. I should probably delete that.</p>
<p>Only if you want to. </p>
<p>I have to go for like 15 minutes. Bye.</p>
<p>Tom, can you write a trip report like on the college boards? How did you like the schools? What were the best parts of each?</p>
<p>okay, Tom, PM me when you’re back. I’ll be on my computer but on MSN so, it will say i’m logged off.</p>
<p>Tom – Some time ago, Claudia started a thread on school visits that never gained momentum. Now that people are visiting, perhaps it might be of more interest. I’ll find the thread and bump it up. If you feel like posting there (or anywhere), others might find it helpful.</p>
<p>I’m back! Yes, Burb and suze, I will definitely post my experiences on the school visit thread.</p>
<p>Were you eating dinner again? I have to go soon, I have a cooking class (fun, but nerdy). So, what were we talking about? Books? Movies?</p>
<p>No, I was having a snack with my family. Cooking class–cool! I like cooking. I think we were talking about your brother, but I won’t be so cruel as to continue that train of conversation.</p>
<p>lol, cruel. Yeah, I had a hissy-fit there. Soooo…what’s up? how’s Band?</p>
<p>It hasn’t started yet…grrrr…</p>
