<p>So that would be Guted, instead of Gut? :p</p>
<p>A relentless doom this. 
</p>
<p>You never know, the Caltech adcom may be a closet Elliot fan. :)</p>
<p>I mean Scientific theory is supposed to be a wasteland, isn’t it? (Or am I stretching this too far? :))</p>
<p>@fuzzy: I know you weren’t doubting me. I was just saying that I could’ve done BME, but didn’t really want to. :p</p>
<p>@Lakshya; You’re the thread hibernator now! :)</p>
<p>Woah! Quite a few decisions last night. Well done to the twins, Lakshya and dda. One of my friends got into JHU (the sameone whos accepted at oxford and caltech) and another ‘friend’ got waitlisted. Another friend also got accepted at Stern…though he’s American.</p>
<p>I dont want to spread bad news, but I’m hearing rumors that people got into NYU with 1600’s on their SAT’S.
That is out of 2400.</p>
<p>So are you going to Madison or to Stern dda?</p>
<p>hey Shrivats, Kaushik and Lakshya and twins, did you guys apply or financial aid? (pleeeeaaassseee reply), i need to know
thanks</p>
<p>Madison, Stern doesnt appeal to me. It’s Aditya btw! </p>
<p>My parent’s dont really like New York either, and I share the same sentiment. Unless I get into Stanford, I’m going to Madison! </p>
<p>How about you Shrivats? JHU or still waiting on the BIG IVY’S? Got a certain major in mind?</p>
<p>lala: Shrivats and Kaushik are the twins :p</p>
<p>I read an article in the WSJ that NYU is the most popular college among students followed by Princeton and Harvard. Stanford is the most popular choice among parents. Hmmm…</p>
<p>@lala56: I didn’t. I don’t know about the twins.</p>
<p>I’m one of those odd people who never wanted to go to Harvard, not ever. Wanted MIT since I was seven or so (no, I’m not exaggerating, but that’s a sore subject). Heard of Caltech after reading Feynman (you know. I don’t mean Lectures, I mean ‘Surely You’re Joking’), so probably age nine. 
Stanford I only got familiar with in the eleventh grade.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What 7 year old thinks about universities? 
</p>
<p>lala56, depends upon where you’re talking about. For Need-Blind colleges we’ve applied for aid; for non Need-Blind, we’ve not. (another reason why JHU falls on our list)</p>
<p>But really, Financial Aid and all money-related matters are best discussed within your family/at a personal level really.</p>
<p>(Trying to compose a haiku (standard poetry’s for the weak! :D) for Duke.)</p>
<p>Oh you know, your average, normal 7 year old, I mean what else is there to think about? :D</p>
<p>'Course this is from a very odd person who read aloud the explanation of photosynthesis from one of those 'cycopedia things when he was about 5 or 6 (Which I only believe due to documented video evidence.)</p>
<p>ah, just woke up from a nap. Am prepared for the decisions now really!</p>
<p>I had pasted a pic of the MIT campus in my Big Scrapbook when I was eight! :)</p>
<p>Got in touch with Caltech’s best lab in 9th grade ('Tis the case with spacepirate as well) :)</p>
<p>my dad has always told me that Harvard’s the best place on this planet ever since I was 6 or so … LOL</p>
<p>Had a huge crush on Princeton when I watched A Beautiful Mind… “Welcome to Princeton…” (where John Nash flipped) :)</p>
<p>hey guys, sorry I am returning after a looooooong hiatus. Thing is, my 11th grade finals are going on, so I need to study.</p>
<p>So then, who got in where? Or have decisions not come out yet?</p>
<p>I guess I’m the only one here who didn’t give a damn about colleges until I turned 14. Pity.</p>
<p>I’ve been to the MIT Press bookstore. I own you all. Hahaha! I’ve also been to the Harvard Campus, I have a picture of a 14 year old me holding John Harvard’s feet. (Basically, I’ve been to Boston.)</p>
<p>spacepirate, I’ve been prepared for decisions ever since I sent my apps out.</p>
<p>Okay guys,. eight hours and twenty minutes!</p>
<p>Lakshya, I decided on my colleges in November-December, and I didn’t give a damn till I was 15 :).</p>
