<p>OHgiraffe - they’re required by January - results are used for evaluating deferred candidates and for placement of accepted candidates. Says so on the website!</p>
<p>Anyway, it’s amazing how many EDers have just registered! I guess it’s like that every year, probably.</p>
<p>My former MUN adviser ordered a bunch of green and white flowers and sent them to me during session, it was so sweet and yet really embarassing! All during the conference I had a bunch of people come up to me and congratulate me on my acceptance. I kind of became that “girl who got into Dartmouth.” Even the adviser from Glenbrook (who went to Brown for grad school) was totally excited that I got in. All of that, on top of the fact that I won the outstanding delegate AND delegate’s choice awards and our tiny little school in the cornfields won 3rd place oustanding delegation out of 24 schools when less than three years ago our MUN club didn’t even exist totally made this the best weekend EVER.</p>
<p>So yeah… I’m done ranting.</p>
<p>oh goodness, green and white flowers! that’s so sweet!</p>
