High school class of 2016

Cant access mine until August 24 but school starts September 2 or 3

All of my courses are subject to teacher availability and class sizes. They don’t want overcrowding and need to see if they need to create more than one period of one class. Oftentimes, this sacrifices other courses that teacher may teach.

Also, only 5 (out of 120+) teachers have stayed at my school for over 10 years. Most of them leave after their third or fourth year.

Just got home from my last college visit road trip. (still visiting other colleges but won’t do a major 5 day trip)

I’ve been dreaming of the day that I’d start college apps since I was in middle school, but with that day being tomorrow, I feel so unprepared and scared. I don’t feel ready for this at all! :-S

CommonApp is out :frowning: No more living in denial

Good luck to everyone who will be beginning their college apps tomorrow! I believe in all of you (even though it’s difficult to believe in myself)!

RIP. Ripperino. Rest in Pepperoni. rest in pieces

Good luck with apps to everyone who is starting tomorrow! I can’t believe that the time is already here. Here’s to this next year! It will probably be stressful and painful at times, but we got this! Will definitely be so cool to see where everyone ends up. I’m so glad we have each other here through the process :slight_smile:

This is going to be a once in a lifetime experience.

One word: Excited.

(deep breaths)
oh man, the next few months are going to be an absolute nightmare

Probably won’t start filling anything out until the end of August/early September but as always good luck to everyone! Our long process finally begins and I hope we all end up happy with the outcome

just looked at all the applications. its going to be a busy few couple of months

I’m gonna die :slight_smile:

Probably won’t be seeing me for a while. I pray that League of Legends doesn’t let me stray off from applications too much.

Check this out guys :slight_smile:

Does anyone know what I should check off for ethnicity if I’m Hispanic?

@XoXdreamerXoX In the profile section under demographics they ask if you’re Hispanic, so I think after that you should check whatever?

Welp, filled out basic profile and most of the first sets of questions for all my Common App schools. And here’s to using the essay I wrote back in May for school because I don’t want to have time to rewrite it! At least I’m happy with it, haha. Best of luck y’all.

Hi all! Today I was looking at my ACT score report to get my scores for apps and noticed that my ACT calculated GPA is much lower than my actual GPA is now and has always been! I took the test in October and didn’t look at the official score report then, so I haven’t caught the mistake until now. The information I gave to the ACT was incomplete. I went back and corrected the information, but they don’t update my score report to show that information. Does anyone have a similar problem? And does anyone know if this will cause issues with colleges when my actual GPA is a lot higher than the one listed on the score report?
In other news, I did my senior pictures yesterday, and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. The poses I had to do were quite ridiculous, but my mom would do exaggerated versions of the poses when the photographer wasn’t looking, so I was laughing the entire time! He tried to a couple of more serious pictures, but that didn’t really turn out well lol. I felt like Pa Cop when President Business was trying to position him before using the Kragle lol!

I think my GPA on the SAT score report is .07 higher than it actually is.
