<p>

Let me break this down for you. Is it easier to lift 200 ponds or (200+180) 380 pounds?? haha thats as simple as I could make it.

</p>

<p>Lol that’s not how it works.</p>

<p>

I don’t like H due to the over the top competition over there.

</p>

<p>Penn (and maybe Princeton) is possibly the most cut-throat top U.S. school. H doesn’t even come close in terms of competitiveness.</p>

<p>

Umm if I want to study engineering why the hell would I put Wharton as my back up.

</p>

<p>Sorry, I just remember you saying that you wanted to go into IB.</p>

<p>

Umm you posted this. SO by your logic, if I got into SEAS/CAS I should have gotten into M&T also.

</p>

<p>Yes, you should’ve. But you didn’t because: </p>

<p>

but got rejected from M&T.</p>

<p>That’s because you’re an average full-pay international, who put SEAS (which has plenty of space and relatively few compared to Wharton, willing to pay full) as an acceptable and binding back-up. You were basically asking them to place you into SEAS. You should’ve put Wharton as your back-up if you really wanted M&T. When you get to Penn, and are still curious, ask the international M&T kids, which school they put as their back-up when they applied ED. I guarantee you that almost all of them will say Wharton.

<p>Wow, everyone’s still pretty active around here. Nice to see. Now that I’m finally relaxed and jobless, maybe I’ll drop by every now and then too.</p>

<p>For guys that say that only 3-4 indians get into MIT every year, check this out : [Enrollment</a> Statistics: MIT Office of the Registrar](<a href=“Statistics & Reports | MIT Registrar”>Statistics & Reports | MIT Registrar)</p>

[debarghya9]

<p>That’s 29 for all 4 years. I think that also includes US Permanent Residents who are Indian citizens.</p>

[chelsearox]

<p>^ exactly.</p>

[perfectpixie]

<p><em>bounce</em> <em>bounce</em> Two! :D</p>

<p>I think this patriotic song shows a lot about diversity in India. I love watching/listening to it when it makes a rare appearance while I’m watching television:
[Mile</a> Sur Mera Tumhara<a href=“meaning%20of%20first%20line%20is%20%5Bi%5Dlet%20my%20tune%20and%20your%20tune%20merge%20to%20become%20our%20tune%5B/i%5D”>/url</a>
I also like this patriotic song:
[url=&lt;a href=“- YouTube”&gt;- YouTube]Ae</a> mere pyare watan](<a href=“Mile Sur Mera Tumhara [High Quality] - YouTube”>Mile Sur Mera Tumhara [High Quality] - YouTube)
First three lines:
*O my beloved homeland, my distant paradise, I sacrifice my heart for you.
You are my cherished desire, you are my honor, you are my life.
I salute the breeze that has passed from your valleys, I will kiss anyone who will mention your name. *</p>

<p>PD: So, I’m guessing your connection with India is schooling? Hmm…AWC?
And can we move on from this Penn discussion? Otherwise bad-pixie shall make an appearance.</p>

<p>I hope no discrete surveillance is taking place which might prove detrimental to the cause at hand. :)</p>

[PrincetonDreams]

<p>I’ve always quite liked this: [YouTube</a> - A R Rahman - Maa Tujhe Salaam](<a href=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWeIBEKY3S4]YouTube”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWeIBEKY3S4)</p>

<p>

AWC

</p>

<p>Anti-wigger confederation? [That’s what google said it was.]</p>

<p>

And can we move on from this Penn discussion?

</p>

<p>Lol, kk. But Penn’s admissions process is definitely the most interesting.
I’ve been trying to research admissions a bit more lately so that I can better help out my juniors (and earn some cash on the side for my services :)).</p>

[perfectpixie]

<p>^Ooh I love that song!
What’s unique about the first link I posted is that it’s the same line sung in fourteen different languages of the country! :)</p>

<p>I meant to write UWC. Come onn what is it??? I’m curious and you’re conveniently available to annoy.;)</p>

<p>How’s your theater stuff going?</p>

[PrincetonDreams]

<p>

How’s your theater stuff going?

</p>

<p>Haven’t done anything for the past 3-odd months now. Just not interested anymore. I guess I’ve kinda lost my enthusiasm for the Arts now…</p>

<p>

I meant to write UWC.

</p>

<p>A UWC? In India? Ah, that would be a dream come true. :)</p>

[perfectpixie]

<p>

that would be a dream come true.

LOL.

Come onn what is it???

*Weelllllll??<a href=“I%20can%20be%20good%20at%20being%20annoying”>/I</a></p>

<p>Back to IB internships, firms blooga blooga? <em>yawns exaggeratedly</em></p>

<p>EDIT: wait, is that supposed to mean something instead?
Mahindra has a UWC in Pune. </p>

[PrincetonDreams]

<p>

Weelllllll??

</p>

<p>Lol honestly - well what? </p>

<p>

Back to IB internships, firms blooga blooga? <em>yawns exaggeratedly</em>

</p>

<p>Haha, that was me last year! :)</p>

<p>I’m somewhat interested in public service too. Wbu?</p>

[perfectpixie]

<p>

well what?

Haha. Your Indian connection, Sherlock. What is it?
Or, are am I intruding on something? :o

I’m somewhat interested in public service too. Wbu?

Interesting that you mention public service, I was offered an internship with Amnesty, but I decided not to take it. I thought I wanted to have one absolutely free summer before four more continuous years (since I doubt we’re going to have summers free too?). Yes, I know, I’m being terribly lazy.
What area are you interested in?
Apart from having to get up at five, life’s moving smoothly enough.
Are you doing international pre orientation (if stanford offers one that is)?</p>

[PrincetonDreams]

<p>

Haha. Your Indian connection, Sherlock. What is it?

</p>

<p>Nope you’re not intruding on anything.</p>

<p>No connection, whatsoever. Honestly. :)</p>

<p>

What area are you interested in?

</p>

<p>Foreign Service.</p>

<p>

Are you doing international pre orientation (if stanford offers one that is)?

</p>

<p>Yep.</p>

[perfectpixie]

<p>

Foreign Service.

Oh I am so muddled. :o
I misread it as social service.</p>

<p>Ugh, international pre orientation at harvard seems to be nothing more than generic stuff about american culture and other things that are covered in normal orientation. The only “good part” about it is that they have “amazing parties” which is hardly a good thing since I doubt I’d want to party every night with jet lag.</p>

[PrincetonDreams]

<p>

</p>

<p>Haha. Nah, not social service. I’m just not cut out for that.</p>

</p>

<p>Ah, I’m not into partying at all. Not into doing High school stuff again. Glad that I have actual events to look forward to [even though they’re pretty pointless too], unlike you. :p</p>

[perfectpixie]

<p>Vun!:D</p>

<p>u dont have to rub it in! <em>wails</em></p>

<p>i wanted 2 do FAP[freshman arts program], but it had a lot of extra troublesome application stuff. I’ve applied to FOP[outdoor prog] too but trudging around in the woods with less than basic ameneties and yucky canned food [and NO bath:eek:] in my first week doesn’t sound like bliss to me.;)</p>

<p>Ohhh, no good food for next four years. :(</p>

[PrincetonDreams]

<p>

Vun

</p>

<p>Ab yeh kya hai? You and your ambiguous acronyms. :|</p>

<p>Dude, that sounds awesome. And here I was looking forward to my faculty panel discussions and dinners with my class lol.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Boston has plenty of good places to eat out. Don’t worry about the food. Hey, it really could be a lot worse. You could’ve been going to New Haven. :P</p>

[perfectpixie]

<p>

Ab yeh kya hai? You and your ambiguous acronyms.

Haha, I love how you (not being Indian even one tiny bit) just spout some hindi out of the blue. Did you actually learn it?
Btw, that wasn’t meant for anyone in particular. It’s not an acronym! And there you must have been googling desperately to check out the meaning. :p</p>

<p>Well, we did have quite a few options for pre orientation programs. Basically you just show up one week in advance for them. These (fop/fap) are different from the International pre orientation prog btw.

Boston has plenty of good places to eat out.

Well, yes, that’s true. But for most meals I shall have to settle with american blandness right? Good food=indian food!
American food seems to have such little nutrition!</p>
