College

[charbar]

ahhh ~ let me see if i can answer all the questions i was asked w/o referring back to them. 

im applying to - brown in providence, bucknell in penn, swarthmore in penn, olin college of engineering in boston, and possibly princeton 

sorry dad.... i mean paulewog... it wont happen again.... and i will try not to bite my nails anymore

i dont know anyone named sole, sorry.  ucf is a very nice school though.  i live about five, ten minutes down the road, am finishing up my last year in hs.  compared to uf, ucf is much nicer - cleaner, prettier, plus not only is the campus beautiful, its easy to get around.... its a circle...... how lost can you get?  the area is continually growing too... im sure once you start attending here we will have many friends in common as most of the kids from the hs around here end up staying home and commuting

me.. i feel like its time to get out.  leaving fla will really be closing a chapter in my life.  my dads in the army and ive lived everywhere... nowhere more than 24 months..... that stinks, its true, but its just instilled in me a need to be constantly on the move.... its why im thinking of missionary or peace corps work... im a traveller, im going to see things, do things - for God

yeah im tired..... its 144 am.. talk to you guys soon

[charbar]

good ACT scores are good.... hmmmm.... im awaiting the SATS i took last sat, then im taking the ACT and THEN im taking the SAT II. howd you do on the SAT? hmmmm.... congrats!

im sure youll keep biting your nails though... hard to get rid of a bad habit hah

 

[oncewaslost]

i took it 3 times and couldn't get above a 1090 so i gave up on the SAT and took the ACT and on that i got a 25. which is pretty good i suppose. still trying to figure out what it equals in the SAT.

nah, i don't really bite my nails unless i'm stressed.

pretty much like i don't have a southern accent unless i'm tired or emotional.

 

[charbar]

yeah a 25 is great on the ACT... SATS - you have to have your verbal and math down, the ACT is much more wide ranging... sounds like i know what im talking about, i dont though cause i havent taken the ACT yet - i just know i hate the SAT. youll probbaly hate me though.... im shooting for a 1400 at least. i need it to get in my schools. blah. im hoping that i also will do better on the ACT though.

you dont have a southern accent? hah i say ya'll from when i lived in alabama..... and "ca" instead of car, "ruff" instead of "roof" and "draw" instead of drawer from when i lived up north.... and sometimes ill slip up and say something in korean from when i lived in korea...... ahhh the joys of being a military child

*sigh*

lol! my dad was in the air force for a while but when he finished his term in active duty decided to go into the airline industry. so now he flies planes. or should i say still flies planes since he flew planes in the airforce...

nah, i won't hate you. i have a friend trying to get a 1300. and my brother is one of those types of people who remember things real easily and that sort of thing and got a 1500 after staying up till like 1:30am the night before the SAT. the SAT i got an above average verbal score and right on average math score. i'm not an excellent math student. math's just not my thing.

 

[charbar]

a 1500.. not bad... ha id love a 1500... i got a1360 already... i just wanted those few extra points to help me out on my apps.... af isnt bad but everyone knows army is the way to go..... when i was thinking about going to an academy, the only two i even considered were USMA and USAFA.... the army treats officers well while the af treats women well.... ahh well.... i got over that idea pretty quick

 

[paulewog]

/me hasn't taken the SAT
/me hasn't taken the ACT
/me doesn't bite his nails
/me wants to play soccer.

/me doesn't really want to go into the army, too harsh... he would rather go into a conservatory

 

[oncewaslost]

lol!

 

[Religious Crisis]

I got a 31 on my ACT and all I need to get into my school was a 25 so that was easy.

 

[oncewaslost]

cool, good job.

 

[AngelAmidala]

I didn't have to take the ACT to get into my school.

I did have to take the SATs though...before they had the whole SAT II thing. I took them twice...once the end of my jr. year and once the beginning of my sr. year. Did better overall the first time.

char...a girl down the street from me, who's a year older then I am, went to Bucknell and loved it.

 

[paulewog]

I didn't either...

And I'm the top in all my classes, on the honor roll, best student, never miss a day of class, always on time...

I'm homeschooled

ahh im excited about possibly going to bucknell. i think its the easiest school to get into of all the ones im applying to, but im really excited. whoa i just said that. olin is really exciting too... its brand new, first class to graduate will be class of 06, but they only accept around 80 students and each student is giving a full 140 000 scholarship..... its not accredited YET so hopefully that'll scare quite a few kids away.... i need all the help i can get.

a 31 on your ACT.... thats great... i hope i can do that well when i take it... where are you now?
