Yale 2015 SCEA Hopefuls

<p>My BC teacher refuses to tell us what we should be doing this week… though we have a quiz friday.
And he collected a mess of hw before thanksgiving but gave it all back because it was too much to grade. So no hw grade for this quarter for the mo’. charming man.</p>

<p>My best guess is we’re on average interval dcuygoihn. Something called something like that.</p>

<p>Hahaha, I am taking Stats instead of Calc. I’m so much less academic than almost everyone else applying, and yet I’m still incredibly confident.</p>

<p>EDIT: Meaning my logic disconnects somewhere along the line.</p>

<p>^ No worries. My emotions are fluctuating between self-depricating (“Why are you even trying you stupid, stupid girl?”) and overly optimistic (“CC is crazy, don’t look at these scores, you’re a good person, maybe…”)</p>

<p>SCEA-waiting is not a healthy activity</p>

<p>Yup. I’ve had a countdown on Facebook back and forth between my friend who also applied Yale SCEA. We’ve been counting down since 45-Days-to-go</p>

<p>^
I’d be a pile of decay in some sunlight-barren corner if I’d have been counting down from then.</p>

<p>We have mutual friends applying early to Brown/Stanford/etc. They’ve started liking the posts. The only thing keeping me going is finding creative ways to count.
Example:
“23. Like that really bad movie with Jim Carrey.”</p>

<p>Block scheduling makes so much sense! Though they’ve changed the schedule every year and i’ll have a teacher each year that will spend a class period telling us how much they like it, we’ve never had it while ive been there.</p>

<p>We did parametric and polar equations last year an haven’t touched them at all this year. That’s funny. We’ve been jumping around in our book and a friend who had the class last year looked at what we were doing and said they didn’t do it until February. I don’t know what my teachers trying this year, but I love the class :slight_smile: lucyloves- I would hate to have no hw grade. Our teacher pretty much just trusts that we do it and gives us points each day. </p>

<p>I haven’t taken that many AP’s. I blame the terrible scheduling issues, mostly, but I’m also the yearbook editor so that takes up a required two classes each year. Im pretty sure I’ll graduate with 10. Possibly 11, though.</p>

<p>The Colorado College block plan is where it’s AT.</p>

<p>All my friends and I have had a countdown from 45 days. I have an app on my phone and I use it pretty religiously :)</p>

<p>I don’t have any friends applying to Yale. :(</p>

<p>^I don’t either. At least SCEA. I have a few applying regular. I’m counting down with ones applying early elsewhere, even though I think I’m the only one who will actually find out the 15th. They’re all close though. :)</p>

<p>I just have a friend who applied SCEA Stanford, as noone else did so. Most of my other early applying friends find out near the same time as me though, like ninja.</p>

<p>I have one friend applying EA to MIT. He reallllly wants that acceptance tube.</p>

<p>Those acceptance tubes sound pretty cool!! Though it makes the decision obvious if you haven’t checked emails…</p>

<p>Yeah. I couldn’t stand not checking emails, though. So I’d probably already know by the time the tube came around.</p>

<p>The way Yale does it, though, the Bulldog just jumps in your face! I’ll have a heart attack if it happens. And I’m pretty sure my school counselor will also have a heart attack (if I get accepted).
:P</p>

<p>^You’re going to view your decision with your counselor? That’s gutsy.</p>

<p>I’ll be tucked away in my dark bedroom, alone in the world, with nothing but my hope to keep me company.</p>

<p>^^
LOL. No… that came across wrong. I just meant she’d have a heart attack if I got accepted, lol.</p>

<p>Haha… no, no, no, no. I’m definitely sneaking my way to the computer so I can check before anyone in the house gets wind of anything.</p>

Spongebob is awesome.
And so are all the oldies… like Rocket Power, Hey Arnold!, The Wild Thornberries, Catdog, etc.</p>

<p>This thread grew by 5 pages while I was sleeping!
I’m going to wake up at 4 am to view my decision. If I ever manage to be able to sleep.
You guys are so lucky you can choose different courses every year. We have to choose 5 classes in the 11th and stick with them till we graduate. Plus, they have to be from the same stream. (I can’t for example, study bio or chem cause I have political science. Different streams) On the plus side though, we go into quite a lot of detail I guess. Math this year is HARD.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>No objection here!</p>

<p>^^
I’m not going to lie, that sounds really cool. I see a benefit to what we do (with all the options and academic/intellectual exploration), but your way makes me think of Harry Potter for some reason. Which is awesome. </p>

<p>Three cheers for Defense Against the Dark Arts and Care of Magical Creatures??</p>
