<p>life is a funny teacher… first it gives u da test… den it teaches u da lessons>>> outta syllabus :p</p>

<p>@ Hopeless1: Best of Luck with HKU application!
Are you applying to HKUST and NUS? I might apply to Nanyang Tech in Singapore.</p>

<p>My parents are berating me to apply to these Asian universities but I have no intention of studying there >.<</p>

<p>@ Arif: Dude chill! Everything happens for a reason! These admission tests are so arbitrary and random that you don’t know what to expect and what will happen! Just put forward your best application, work your butt of on the essays and make sure your teachers provide the sweetest recommendation. </p>

<p>BD universities have the most stupid standardized exams. For instance DU A Unit exam for science hopefuls is way harder than DU B or C unit exam which is for social science and humanities hopefuls. </p>

<p>Plus you can always give a retry next year so no worries! :D</p>

<p>BTW this thread just crossed 500 posts!
Congrats Hopeless1 :p</p>

<p>I just realized the title “Bangladeshi Thread” could actually be a play on the clothing and apparels produced by our garments industry! :eek:</p>

<p>yes DarthSpawnus we finally managed to keep this thread alive even though we r dead in the process! lol! & applying only 2 HKU in Asia. Its only cuz they offer a certain major that u wud get nowhere in US in undergrad level…I love that subject!</p>

<p>arif-I love ur philosophy abt lyf…tests b4 lessons!</p>

<p>Well Hopeless best of luck applying to HKU! </p>

<p>And here I reach my 500th post :eek: :eek: :eek:</p>

<p>DarthSpawnus- congratz on ur 500th post!</p>

<p>& dont wish me luck evry now & then…just dont! it neva works…</p>

<p>LOL</p>

<p>You should stop being so pessimistic.
Negativity spawns more negativity.</p>

<p>Ok, guys, should I be worried about the Jan 1 deadline for the commonapp unis? When do people usually submit their applications? I think my transcript stuff will be finished by Sunday, after that I can start submitting. Is submitting that late a big risk?
Btw, when are the deadlines for HKU n NUS? Anyone except hopeless1 applying to them?</p>

<p>NUS deadline is April 1. Don’t know about HKU.
As long as all documents are submitted with one week in hand before Jan 1 you are good to go.
You can submit the online portion any time.</p>

<p>How are applications going? I haven’t still finished a lot of supplements. I will be lucky to submit my applications on time…</p>

<p>I have completed 6 of the 10 supplements.
Man the essays require so much time! </p>

<p>And I didn’t yet mail the school and fin aid docs :eek:</p>

<p>dear DEADlines, get a life! & let us live peacefully! tym is running…</p>

<p>btw, how many weeks does it take for the colleges to receive ur scores after u add them as recipients?</p>

<p>U guys are WAAAAYYYYYYYY aheaddd>> i havent touched a supplement, i havent perfected my common app essay (um stilll nt happy wid it :(…)… Urrrghghhh nd ivy league supplements are HUGGGEEEEEEEE goddamitt>>> gud luck wid all urss??? btw u mentioned early action at ivy leagues all rejected??? i wish i cud change my name to hopeless2. seriously>></p>

<p>Aaahh i wish i cud bang out essayss as fast as i can wryt cc comments :((((</p>

<p>I wouldn’t be too worried by EA rejections.
International admissions works in a different manner.</p>

<p>guys, I had 2 questions…plz…</p>

<p>1)how many weeks does it take for the colleges to receive ur scores after u add them as recipients? approximations?
2)how much tym does DHL take?</p>

<p>1) If you pre-select them (before you receive your scores), Collegeboard sends scores 2 days before you get them and colleges get them in a week’s time. It doesn’t take much time for colleges to get scores, it takes time to download, process and add them to your files.</p>

<p>2) 3 days. 4 days at max.</p>

<p>If I add a recipient now for JAN 15 deadline, i hope I am not too late.or am I?</p>

<p>anyway DarthSpawnus, u deserve a thank you note from me…a lengthy one, though!:)</p>

<p>Nope not at all. It will reach in time. Plus most colleges have till Feb 1 to receive SAT scores so no worries.</p>

<p>:)</p>
