High School Class of 2014

<p>Happy Easter!!!</p>

<p>Oh yeah, it’s Easter! Even with Yahoo spewing those “What will Kate Middleton wear on Easter Sunday” and “What will the Obama girls wear on Easter Sunday” so-called “articles” I forgot. </p>

<p>April Fools Day tomorrow, though. Best. Day. Ever.</p>

<p>April Fools is tomorrow! Yes. School might actually be fun.</p>

<p>I don’t celebrate Easter. Happy Passover!</p>

<p>Happy Easter/Passover/Anything Else =P</p>

<p>Gred and Forge’s birthday!
except no Fred D:</p>

<p>Happy Passover!
(Or Easter, or Birthday :slight_smile: )
I wish Happy Holidays wasn’t so season specific :)</p>

<p>Happy Easter all! </p>

<p>Question on summer activities: A lot of government funded intern/pre-college programs have dried up. Most precol programs are paid now. I really can’t afford $3,000 per credit at UChicago or attend LBW for $6,000. Instead, if I take a class at my local community college for $400 would that look beneficial/ would it help admissions to Ivy’s or top schools.</p>

<p>Also, anyone know of cool internships in or around Chicago??? Paid or unpaid. I’ll take anything! </p>

<p>I plan on working again this summer but I want to spice it up and go after some opportunities and experiences. BTW who wants to meet up at lollapalooza? ;)</p>

<p>Happy Passover/Easter! Anyone willing to look over my English essay? I’ll look at something of yours in return</p>

<p>Just found out the schools I’m ever going to visit are Northwestern and UIUC.</p>

<p>I’ve lived on Northwestern’s campus every summer for 3 years, so a tour isn’t really necessary. I don’t even really want to go to UIUC, I’m just applying because I’m sort of expected to. Yay. The two schools I get to visit aren’t even really necessary for me to visit, meanwhile WashU, Ohio State, and Wesleyan won’t even be touched. Ugh. This is a mistake, I know it. Too bad my mom will find out it’s a mistake with me and will fix it when it’s time for my brother and sister. I hate being the oldest. </p>

<p>Virtual tours, here we go. :(</p>

<p>I probably won’t be going on any if it makes you feel better; my parents have taken a “hands-off” approach to college admissions.</p>

<p>TinnyT: What’s Northwestern like? I’m strongly considering them, but I may not get a chance to tour until late September.</p>

<p>So apparently we’ll be visiting Alabama in November and seeing a football game against LSU. Not gonna lie, I’m pretty giddy. Even if I don’t end up attending there, it’ll be a heck of an experience seeing that game.</p>

<p>My spring break is ending… :frowning: Oh well, how was everybody’s spring break?</p>

<p>I won’t be going on any college visits because my parents (mostly just my mom) don’t want me to miss time to study. Also, it’s expensive enough to apply to college, so I don’t really want to visit schools beforehand because I’ll just be setting false hopes for myself and waste money when I don’t get in. </p>

<p>My spring break is this week. So there’s nothing to say about spring break… yet.</p>

<p>My break is in 3 weeks.</p>

<p>“Anyone willing to look over my English essay? I’ll look at something of yours in return”</p>

<p>I can look at it.</p>

<p>My spring break is this coming week too.</p>

<p>My spring break was last week, but we have tomorrow off too. I’m kind of sad about how fast this semester is going. I don’t want this year to be over, to be honest.</p>

<p>Anyone know if colleges look more at the SAT score out of 1600 or 2400 because for awhile I heard 1600, but now I’m hearing 2400. I know a lot of you probably don’t know, but still. Thanks my fellow juniors!</p>

<p>^Some colleges don’t release their average writing score, so I’d assume those colleges look at scores out of 1600.</p>
