<p>Occupy Stanford: we are the 12.7%!</p>
<p>Ice breakers:</p>
<p>If I get into Stanford I will __________ all over ________________ .</p>
<p>The thing I love most about Stanford is ________________ especially on _____________ .</p>
<p>My answers would be inappropriate.</p>
<p>haha 10char</p>
<p>id rather be cleanly rejected than to get my hopes up by getting deferred when i’d get rejected in the end anyway.</p>
<p>@StanfordCS lets hear it</p>
<p>Jizz, myself</p>
<p>Suppose I get some outside scholarships. For Stanford, does my family have to pay less, or does my aid package get lowered?</p>
<p>say you get 30,000 FA and the rest plus housing expenses of 25,000 count as your “student responsibility.” if your outside scholarship exceeds 25,000 your FA will get cut down. so if you get a scholarship of say 10,000, your family would only pay 15,000 and your FA will still cover 30,000</p>
<p>Okay sweet, I’ve heard of schools just lowering their loan packages since my demonstrated need would be lower.</p>
<p>Is anyone taking else multivariable calculus? This might be my first B, it’s fairly challenging and I am so unmotivated :(</p>
<p>haha no way i tried to self-study it and failed</p>
<p>My professor is ridiculous! She didn’t curve any of our three midterm exams (F, D, and C averages respectively)!!!</p>
<p>I actually like the lectures though, because I love thinking about the different dimensions. I just don’t want tests or hw…</p>
<p>average F,… I liked watching the youtube videos from MIT and berkeley, but couldn’t get through the actual questions. i hope i don’t have to do it in college for physics. do ou have a test soon?</p>
<p>Yea, there were 16 Fs 6 Ds 6 Cs 3 Bs and 3 As or something like that. Well I’m taking it at city college, so I bet the youtube videos I watched are much harder. I highly doubt I would be able to self-study the material, having an actual professor helps so much.</p>
<p>Since we’re rushed on time, our next exam will be take home 
(in a week or two). And our professor has a policy where if you miss less than 3 days of class, your lowest exam grade will be substituted with your final grade, which means I have to study super hard for the final.</p>
<p>your professor sounds harsh. i’m guessing you were one of the 3 A’s?</p>
<p>good luck on the finals:)</p>
<p>Thankfully :)</p>
<p>But I got an 80% on the last test which drops my test average to a 90… and they are over 50% of our grade with the final being 35%.</p>
<p>I’m taking multi. The content is ridiculous, but somehow I have a 99 average…no joke. We’re moving really slow though-- we just started curvature and vector functions =/.</p>
<p>Wow, we did line integrals a few days ago… We are WAY ahead of you guys. I wish I had a 99 
My test average is a 90 after my last test since it was right after Stanford EA apps were due so I had no time to study, which means I have to study like crazy for the next test.</p>
<p>Has anyone read Love in the Time of Cholera? It is so ridiculously sad.</p>
<p>We’re also doing line integrals right now at my school. We’re compressing MVC into this semester though with Linear Algebra second semester. Are you doing the same, rush10?</p>
<p>It’s offered through my local city college, but yes, that’s what the plan is. Do you plan on taking linear algebra? I might opt out because FIRST robotics will eat up all of my time second semester (my classmates said linear algebra was easier though).</p>
<p>The official number of REA Stanford applicants is 5,880. It went down -0.83% from last year.</p>
