<p>Girls… I ain’t haha. I haven’t visited, i couldn’t suffice a trip all the way up there just for one school… :/</p>
<p>^^The high school I go to already has them, they are no big deal and from what I’ve heard from the girls here their dorms are the same. Just don’t bring all of your clothes into the shower to change, that’s way too self-conscious; nobody really cares what you look like in a towel. Only annoying thing is when all the sinks are taken and you need to shave or brush your teeth. Also, you’ll definitely want some flip-flops for showering. </p>
<p>What would be interesting is ending up with a coed bathroom, I think Stanford has a few.</p>
<p>
Ditto.
communal bathrooms, hm…</p>
<p>Yeah, the part is amazing… Actually… I’m wrong. The entire campus is amazing. Meh. I wanted to go up to Hoover Tower last month, but the class I was sitting in on ended after 4PM (the time that the Tower closes). 
I really love their new Engineering building… I forget the name of it, but the theater is named after NVidia (the computer chip manufacturer).</p>
<p>Hey Wulfran – Well, first of all it’s not really that I learned to program specifically for the iPhone. First I needed to learn a couple of different programming languages: C and Objective-C (which is a subset of C). Once I knew, at least to a degree, then all I needed to do was research through the iPhone Developer site at Apple.com ([iOS</a> Dev Center - Apple Developer](<a href=“http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/]iOS”>http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/)). Then just following examples and “corrupting” them. One of the best ways to learn is by taking apart a sample and trying to add your own code to extend its original function. Etc etc. Yeah, I could explain further but that’s the basic idea. Oh yeah, and there are also instructional books as well as tutorials available on the internet (though most tutorials aren’t totally legit either).</p>
<p>those community bathrooms are SO worth it for Stanford</p>
<p>Agreed. I’m scared for them, but I think I might like being around people that often. When I stayed at UChicago I got used to constant companionship, but letting people see you and your worst is still something I’m not loving…</p>
<p>At BC when I stayed with my friend for a weekend it just kind of looked like a summer camp with everyone’s little shower thingy and all that stuff lined up. I don’t want it to feel that way. </p>
<p>My mom says that when she was at Stanford her room was much closer to the guys’ bathroom so her and her roommate used to use that instead</p>
<p>Hey y’all! Good to see you again :D</p>

<p>^ That’s old news by now… :p</p>
<p>Yay. We’re expecting around 13% acceptance for the REA…><</p>
<p>Oh, is it? Haha, sorry I’ve been missing for some time now xD
<em>skimming the last…er…few hundred posts</em> interesting digression of this thread! How’re ya? I’ve kinda planted this mindset that I won’t be accepted so I wouldn’t be too shocked if…or when, I do get rejected. :P</p>
<p>Hi Nerdess 
where ya been lately?</p>
<p>home, working on other apps ><
I submitted my UC apps yesterday! YAY! Now just a few supplements to go :D</p>
<p>how’re you all faring with the cost of application? Not the school, but just the costs…
it’s quite monstrous.
$55-90/school for app fee
$10/school for SAT
$10/school/exam date (2 for me) for ACT
CSS profile [costed me $121]
but somehow magically got my UC app fee waivered :D</p>
<p>sigh. this so-called investment is emptying my bank D:
no, my parents do not mind paying for all this, but it IS a lot of money ><</p>
<p>BUT ANYWAY! Courtney, aren’t you getting dolled up for HP premiere? That sounds super exciting :]</p>
<p>I’m on hour seven of waiting- less than two to go!! Congrats on submitting all your UC apps!!! I totally understand the cost problem. I’ve applied to 6 colleges so far, and between app fees, act sending fees, SAT 2 sending fees, and the CSS profile, I’ve spent close to $1000 
and it all comes out of my savings account!</p>
<p>I have to wonder how much the College Board makes each year…I’ll have sent nearly one grand to them by the time I graduate</p>
<p>Courtney, how exciting! Tell us about it afterwards! And woot woot, way to spend your waiting-time with us 
</p>
<p>Harambee, it’s a multi-billion dollar “not-for-profit” business…</p>
<p>Seriously… You have to pay for EVERY test date and EVERY school you send them to. SO much money! And then there’s paying for college…</p>
<p>;___;
for ACT, I spent $180 just to send scores. rawr.
test-wise, ACT>SAT. [just my personal opinion–if you feel otherwise, totally cool with me!]
cost-wise, SAT>ACT.</p>
<p>Haha I TOTALLY agree with you. I got a not-so-satisfactory SAT score, yet a stellar ACT score. Maybe that means the ACT is easier? Idk. I certainly agree with you, though! Did you take the ACT/SAT multiple times?</p>
<p>Yup, took twice each for both! Both of my SAT scores were seriously mediocre, while I did much much much better [not stellar, but satisfactory ] on ACT!</p>
