<p>Congratulations to all of those that have been admitted to Harvard thus far and good luck to those waiting as I am. I have a question for those really exceptional people that I see posting and hear about often. These are the RSI attendees who also manage to be really accomplished in debate and art, etc. How do you manage your time, and what is your lifestyle like daily? Are you the type of person that never wastes a minute (ex. you do hw on the bus). or do the things you do don’t require that much time, just simply raw genius? Just wondering, b/c I often find myself wondering where I wasted time and find it difficult to find. I would appreciate just a brief description of your typical day, so I know what it takes to be that awesome, not for college of course but for the future. Thanks for input.</p>
<p>I didn’t go to RSI, but I did go to MITE2S so i lived with the RSI kids for seven weeks. I think that some of them did have just great time management, but yes most of them were “simply raw genius”. It was scary how smart some of them were (a little too smart for their own good i think).</p>
<p>uhm…let’s see. wake up at </p>
<p>7:45 PM to brush teeth and shower and dress for school
8:15 PM leave house for school, drive and eat
8:30 PM school starts
in between is marked with naps in classes and lunches and random walks around the hall out of sheer boredom
3:30 PM school gets out (sometimes school gets out at 12:00PM then I hit the lab from 1 to 7)
4:30 PM lab starts, begins experiment
7:30 PM lab ends, stops experiment at half point
in between i chat, watch TV, take naps, eat dinner
12:00 AM start hw and analyze collected data
