<p>Damn. Did you not post ACT scores or did those people not send? Haha… I’m really scared that the absence of SAT scores will kill me, even though my ACT is a 35</p>

1442

<p>^ I converted the ACT scores to their SAT equivalents.</p>

1443

<p>I should go to the hospital and asked them to put me into an induced coma.</p>

1444

<p>Well Caltech always has the highest average SAT scores of all schools in the US. And I would think that the statistics would be higher for the EA applicants, especially seeing this is on CC. </p>

<p>Still, it’s scary…</p>

1445

<p>^ Yes, even knowing Caltech’s quantitative focus and CC’s self-selection/response bias, I was surprised.</p>

1446

<p>In other news, Brown’s ED results are coming in. The first six decisions-thread respondents have been deferred.</p>

1447

<p>Brown decisions didn’t look so hot. The acceptees are probably off celebrating ATM though</p>

1448

<p>Wow. The Caltech statistics are absolutely insane. If MIT EA turns out anything like that, I am completely screwed.</p>

1449

<p>

</p>

<p>Your best indication for MIT will be last year’s decisions thread, which, if I recall, was quite dissimilar from Caltech’s in that there was very little correlation between stats and chance of acceptance.</p>

1450

<p>Right, I noticed that. I shall keep my hopes high (but not too high) for this Thursday.</p>

1451

<p>Update on Brown: 1 acceptance, 7 deferrals, 1 rejection</p>

1452

<p>That’s insane. Looks like Columbia ED all over again.</p>

1453

<p>So far, I know two people who got in to (into?) Brown and two who got deferred.</p>

<p>On a side note, could someone explain to me the differences with “into,” “in to,” and “in”? Apparently, I’ve been using them wrong… :P</p>

<p>[into/in</a> to](<a href=“http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/into.html]into/in”>into / in to | Common Errors in English Usage and More | Washington State University)</p>

1455

<p>one of my friends from school got into brown</p>

1456

<p>"Into and “in to” are different. Into indicates movement, action or transformation. “In to” is usually used to mean “in order to”. When in and to are used as separate words, they are not a combined phrase.</p>

<p>I’m pretty with college you use “into”; as in “I got into Yale! NOT.”</p>

1457

<p>Okay, so my sentence says, “He plants the notion into her mind.”
Is it just “in her mind”?</p>

1458

<p>

</p>

<p>Yes, “into” is the appropriate choice there. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I would be OK with either “into” or “in” there, but not “in to.”</p>

1459

<p>Well well well… Some green letters showing on the Brown results thread!</p>

1460

<p>Brown’s decisions are improving a bit.</p>
