<p>not really, they had an information seminar in Cal which I went for. Physics/English/</p>

<p>Hey guys, am I welcome to post here? :)</p>

<p><------------</p>

<p>Why not, with all this “bhaichara” wave going on! :stuck_out_tongue: We talk college here not politics.</p>

<p>Pefectdark9,did u have ur MIT interview yet?</p>

<p>Yes, I did, and I think it went well.</p>

<p>What I did NOT have, though, is the Harvard interview; whereas the other EA applicant from my school did.</p>

<p>So,what all did he ask?</p>

<p>Very very scripted questions. He was reading them off his laptop and typing my reponses in.</p>

<p>Basically all the same stuff: where do you see yourself in X years? what is your passion? what moves you? what is most important event in your life?</p>

<p>My guy was really kind, and explained in the beginnning that interviews rarely ever have a very profound effect on the admission decision.</p>

<p>not long for the decisions</p>

<p>Yes!! </p>

<p>Now to eliminate the other 200 or so Intl Stanford EA applicants.</p>

<p>hmmm … :rolleyes:…</p>

<p>Hey why dont we make this “The Indian Subcontinent Post”??
Damn it Astrix, i forgot how to do the bold stuff?!?</p>

<p>hey everyone!!..i didn’t know we had our own forum!!..so what’s news back home???</p>

<p>I can’t believe I totally wasted my time on the computer (almost) the entire day :(. I have mid-year exams coming up, and I had to do A’Level Physics today… </p>

<p>We should sue our EA/ED colleges for emotional distress :stuck_out_tongue: .</p>

<p>And you’re still online :slight_smile:
approx 2min after ur message. You see I’m in the same position except that MY EXAMS ARE GOING ON NOW!!!</p>

<p>ok seriously bye bye for around 10 days,
ciao</p>

<p>Hey shjanama. Where are you from?</p>

<p>P.S. I thought it was pretty cool that you posted your 111th here and then perfectdark9 posted his 112th. maybe I’m just a freak</p>

<p>lol good observation…i moved to the u.s from india in 2001…lived in u.p!!!</p>

<p>So you aren’t an ABCD. That can’t be a bad thing. News-wise there isn’t much of interest happening. I think the newspapers have gone to the dogs here. Tabloids, they are now!</p>

<p>So how’s the three years been? Would you do it again? What do you miss? Feelin inquisitive today :p</p>

<p>no i’m def. not an ABCD…(no offense to those who were born here though!)…it’s been really interesting…i’ve had some great experiences…met some great ppl here whom i wouldn’t have known if i hadn’t come here…but i’m very very close to my family esp. my grandparents and i miss them a lot!!!..also sometimes i regret not having the opportunity to take the boards and see how i would’ve done…i also miss the food!!!..don’t get guavas here…lol…high school is more laid back here…also the emphasis is more distributed…it’s not just academics…i guess that’s a good thing…but at the same time…the level at which stuff is taught is much lower…for eg. whatever i did in chem. in india in 6th - 8th ppl here do in 11th…and i go to a really really good magnet school which has been #1 in the state for the last 3 years or so…i haven’t bee back to india since i came here…can’t wait for next summer!!!</p>

<p>hey! can i join you guys? I’m an ABCD! (lol…got a personal invitation from astrix!)</p>
