<p>“The TURTLE!”?</p>

<p>Wow, you guys are such active posters. I feel bad for not keeping up now lol.</p>

<p>Well, I still need to finish up my supplemental essays. Only one week left…</p>

<p>On the other hand, I lifted and benched 195, which is about my max from the summer. That had me in a good mood, until I looked at my Stanford app.</p>

<p>P.S. I’m seconding wulfran’s question… what IS the “Turtle”?? :confused:</p>

<p>Hi, I’m joining this rather late! I haven’t sent in my REA application yet, but I’m in the final editing stages and trying to make sure I don’t make some sort of dire typo/grammatical error. My teacher finally got in his letter of recommendation today, so I’m very relieved! Someone please tell me I’m not going to fail miserably or I will have a heart attack. It’s back to UC applications for me before I drive myself insane!</p>

<p>Hey guys,
Submitted my app a few weeks ago for the Arts supplement deadline, and was perusing the forums for kicks and grins when I came across the NO RESUME statement. I already attached one and sent it in, and didn’t remember ever seeing “no resumes allowed” anywhere. Can someone show me where it says no resumes?</p>

<p>@turtle posts</p>

<h1>593, #597 :p</h1>

<p>Oh, the awkward turtle! My cousin showed it to me a while ago. I thought it was rather cute :)</p>

<p>Hey guys!
I’ve been lurking around for a while, I waited to post until I submitted my commonapp to avoid stress (so glad it’s in!)</p>

<p>I’m from NY
I like indie/alt music
I’m pretty easygoing, I’m friends with everyone (that’s not meant to sound arrogant)</p>

<p>Went to Stanford one summer and pretty much fell in love with it.
The campus, the community, and I’ve stalked their website and their education is basically exactly what I’m looking for
(and I’m shooting for engineering, for which they have a great program)
everyone there is friendly and really interesting</p>

<p>Also I thought their supplement was awesome. There were so many, but they asked perfect questions.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone applying, hope to get to know some of you better!</p>

<p>How do you all think your teacher recs turned out?</p>

<p>^Excellent. :)</p>

<p>@ Harambee: One probably glowing, the other most likely also very positive.</p>

<p>Hi!</p>

<p>woooow this thread is HUGE. Like I was on here a couple days ago and this thread was only like 14 pages.</p>

<p>Anyways, I just sent in my app to Stanford… and I have that horrible feeling that I forgot something…</p>

<p>blargh. nothing I can do about that now.
now if I could only get my teachers to submit/START my recs!</p>

<p>^</p>

<p>good luck :)</p>

<p>gtlane- which part of NY are you from?
pianofish- just curious, how did you come up with the username? I had the same feeling after submitting my apps. I woke up in the middle of the night wanting to check if i hadn’t messed up my activities section but then decided against it. xD</p>

<p>Oh i had the weirdest dream last night. My grandmom adopted a tiger in it. And there was also had a bulldog. Lol. Anyone want to psychoanalyze that?</p>

<p>Tiger? Bulldog? Hmmm… <em>thinks of Princeton and Yale’s mascots</em> ;)</p>

<p>Perhaps it means you’ll have a lot of great choices come April 1st. :)</p>

<p>If only there was Crimson. That would be better than everything else for me. :)</p>

<p>Oh and clearly the college admissions process is taking over my subconscious.</p>

<p>^ Well, was there anything red in your dream? That could be it. :p</p>
