<p>@fabregas: OMG, CONGRATULATIONS!!! You got USP finalist? I’m so so happy for you! I remember ur story and you totally deserve it! 
this is awesome. XD</p>
<p>@Collegebeckons: our profiles are startlingly similar. Just treat it as a regular interview, I can’t give any more advice since personalities vary…mine ended up informal with him telling me about an urdu love poetry class he took to woo a girl, and me telling him how i couldn’t keep awake on SAT day, and oh, me trying to convince him why I wasnt such an amazing applicant for Harvard (TOTAL FIASCO), and HIM trying to convince me that I wasn’t too bad. I couldn’t be weirder. Ah well, moving on…i always did have a tendency to do unconventional interviews. </p>
<p>So, I turn all of 17 today! Wo, so many years alive and I’ve done nothing other than study and ECs. Embarrassing. </p>
<p>NOW that I’m done groaning and moaning about the woes and worries in my life, I’ll get back to math. Fingers crossed for Chicago and UCB applicants! Although i can’t for the life of me understand why anyone would want to go to the latter. What with budget cuts and everything, I hear it’s almost impossible to graduate in time as people can’t complete reqd credits in time.</p>
