High school class of 2016

@Michelle426 It really depends on your projected major. If undecided, go with number 2. It is much better to be prepared more for Physics and Calculus than Biology; Biology should not be as hard when introduced to in college.

I’m actually really excited for school to start what’s wrong with me guys!

@Mochis1 Princeton SCEA here :slight_smile:

@ErenYeager me too! haha im bored of staying home… although i dont mind watching How I met your mother over again…

@Mochis1 - Hahah, honestly just applying for fun to MIT. Hoping pi day 2016 will be the best one yet, but won’t be too bummed if I get a rejection. Do you know when the portal opens? September, right?

@ErenYeager - I’m excited for school to start, too, just to see all my friends again. Not excited to finish summer homework, though, and for the senior year workload on top of essays…

Yeah for me it’s just seeing friends again. We aren’t sticking to our meet 3 times a week because we all have jobs -_-

@pnguon I LOVE HIMYM

@elefish92 I want to major in Chemistry. I have already taken Biology, AP and Honors Chem as science courses.

@pnguon Sorry for the late response I’ve been traveling all day (I’m in Nebraska now). As for the supplements, they say that they do not require an additional essay on their site.

@XoXdreamerXoX: Yes, I totally agree with what you say about how the school treats you like family! I was at Texas A&M from the 12th to the 17th for an aerospace engineering camp and not only did the campus captivate me, but how closely knit everyone is just makes me feel at home. Although it’s not a first choice of mine (I would probably choose Stanford or MIT over it), I would be very happy to go to the school. Yes, I qualify for automatic admission. I believe I have the test scores to get in, so that will make me qualify for academic admission.
One thing I didn’t like (I’m out-of-state) was that they said “howdy” a lot. It just seemed so… weird for me to get used to xD
@pnguon: Awesome! Best of luck to you through your admissions process!
@glasshours: Ah, I see! My dad really wants me to go to a school like MIT (since it’s #1 in aerospace engineering), so I’ll apply. I doubt that I’ll get in, but it’s definitely worth a shot. And yes, I’m really hyped for pi day 2016 as well! XD I believe it opens late August or early September, if I’m correct. Ahh, that’s just a month from now! D:

@WindyCityKid ME TOOO IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO PREPARE MYSELF FOR THE ENDING THOUGH… :frowning:
@Chrysanthemum14 it’s fine! great to know that… thanks :smiley:

@Mochis1 You too! :slight_smile:

To those who love HIMYM: as do I! I just finished the series finale last night. It was…something…

@Princetonian2020 im finishing it tonight… don’t spoil :stuck_out_tongue: :slight_smile:

I start school two weeks from now. :-S

@Mochis1 I didn’t like the fact that they said ‘howdy’ all of the time. I live in Texas and they’re the first people I’ve ever heard say that in my life.

Unlike common misconceptions, Texans don’t speak with what people conceive to be a country accent (at least in Dallas/San Antonio/Arlington/all places I’ve been to in this state), don’t ride horses for the most part (and people that ride horses have the kind of money to afford a horse), our homes aren’t in the middle of nowhere (unless you live in Italy, where their houses are domes for some reason), we don’t all love football and those that do love it don’t spend their whole lives thinking about it, and we don’t all attend rodeos. Seriously, I’ve only come across one person that would do it and that was my horticulture teacher (I had one space left as an elective and they stuck me in her class).

@pnguon All I’ll say is that it was really good :slight_smile: Somethings were unexpected, but it was alright :slight_smile:

I’ve had a 9-5 job all summer every weekday and my summer was basically nothing but coding for my internship and writing essays. Even my college visits have to double as “vacations” now :frowning:

Also, side note: I started watching Scrubs after finishing HIMYM and I’m loving it. Didn’t realize that Elliot is Stella from HIMYM! Lol =))

I wish I could get into TV shows enough to follow storylines but thats almost impossible for me. The only shows I’ve ever kept up with are Empire and American Horror Story and maybe Law and Order:SVU

@TotallyTrudy mine starts in a week… :frowning:
