<p>So on the Common App version of the Yale supp, it says that all the short answers should be 175 characters. But on the Yale supp on their website, it says 25 words… so which one is it really?</p>

82

<p>write 25 words that average 6 letters each (and a space).
:)</p>

83

<p>isnt yale surrounded by a ghetto lol… see this country focuses on the good things and not the bad. they decived u gus lol</p>

84

<p>That’s why I post at College Confidential. For the high degree of intelligence exhibited by posts like that by “IVYLEAGEBOUND”.</p>

<p>In case you can’t tell (you probably can’t), I’m being hideously sarcastic.</p>

85

<p>^ hehe</p>

<p>play nice, children…</p>

86

<p>Um…any internationals in here?</p>

87

<p>how are yale’s science programs compared to other ivies?</p>

88

<p>i’m wondering is the SAT score matter much.
what’s yous scores?</p>

89

<p>My Yale application (including my common app) is officially complete!</p>

<p>next: some minor tweaks, then it’s gonna be ready to go</p>

<p>i’ve been so productive!! I’ve also finished Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, USC, NYU, and Fordham.</p>

<p>yayayayayayayay!</p>

90

<p>To CHLORMEL: Yes! I’m an international too. Where are you from?</p>

91

<p>I’ve finished my essays! woot!</p>

<p>my aunt and uncle are the most critical people I know, and they’ve really loved them - so proud of their acceptance. my uncles like one of the top philosophers in the world apparently so I hope that means something lol.</p>

92

<p>Lucky you, collegebound!!!</p>

93

<p>I’m hating Yale’s short questions!</p>

94

<p>none of you should apply SCEA, I hear that you get a 6% chance admissions EA and a 13% regular decision, so all of you should wait till january and I can assure you that you will have a much better shot at going to Yale. And, RD they take more time analyzing your app and actually reading your essays ponderously, so you have a much better chance with RD if you are a strong applicant.</p>

95

<p>^ You obviously know nothing :(</p>

96

<p>lmao i think nick just wants less competition when he applies SCEA</p>

<p>I just submitted my app online. i was shaking for some reason lol. it’s all in luck’s hands now…</p>

97

<p>why am I the only noob who hasn’t finished his essays?</p>

<p>:(</p>

98

<p>^^Haha, don’t feel bad, you’llsee… I haven’t finished my essays yet either. I’ve only done one, but have a pretty good idea in my mind–it’s just getting it on paper and into words.</p>

99

<p>lol Nick… </p>

<p>CC is the worst place to BS about these things… and I’m hoping they DON’T spend more time analyzing my app, so they can accept me on an impulse.</p>

<p>I haven’t even started on my essays… why are people so rushing? We have 40 days left.</p>

100

<p>Even though I’m pretty much done, I’m still not sending any of my applications until at least a week prior to the deadline.</p>

<p>I would kill myself if there was something I wanted to change last minute and I wasn’t able to do it.</p>
