does anyone here go to Harvard or Yale? or Stanford maybe? just wondering....

I go to Harvard

Those schools suck.

Nothing compared to staying at home and watching cartoons.

whats your secret?

He seduced the board of Harvard.

Harvard. Check my IP

There's only one reason why I'd want to go to a Ivy League school, and that's to sleep with the smart b!tches.

, You gave away mah secret ...

Harvard female students are better in bed than the faculty.

They won't be good in bed after I'm done with them.

Stanford.

Haha

Lol Suijen

My friend attends Harvard.

Community PRo...!

No.

TEAM RAMROD are your friends.

They are not real.

I'm applying EA to Harvard in the fall. I so rejected though.



I you're telling the truth, then I officially worship you.

What were your stats?

and what are you gonna do with them?

I can see why.

dont you live in alaska or something?

Alaska? wtf LOL.

i go to the havard of canada

anyway, i was really close to getting in Havard/MIT..

i lived in MA, and i had the top marks, and i was in the top junior highschool in the state, and i was going to one of the best highschools in the state....but then 911....lots of $hit happened...i had to move to Canadia and stick with rediculously easy school curriculum....and now i'm making up for it by working my @$$ off.

More like serfs.

You've changed Xu.

Not gangsta anymore.

Harvard/Yale undergrad is pointless/a waste of money.

i know a valevictorian (sp?) who went to harvard....then she try to suicide kinda glad she did....i REALLY hated her....always hated me cuz i was 2 yr younger than her and made better grades in math than she did...

lol, Veggie you rock.

Cambridge or Oxford anyone?

What did 9/11 have to do with your school? Did your stellar school records get burned up or something?



Your not Irish.

Oxford > Cambridge

You realize that that was just unprecedented self-deprecation, right?

In any case, tell me why you think I will be rejected.




Really? You were "really close" to getting in? What makes you think that you're good enough for Harvard and MIT? Your grades? You do realize that top tier schools such as Harvard and MIT have tons, and I mean tons, of applicants every year who have not only excelled in their school curriculum, but also have very impressive feats outside of school-Siemens, Intel, nationally competitive as a musician, Carnegie Hall, Top Olympiads etc. etc. It's asinine to assume you would have gotten in because of grades or whatever or that you didn't get in because of 911. Now here's an innovative excuse: I didn't get into Harvard or MIT because the Twin Towers toppled even though that happened in NY and I live in Massachussates.

"really close to getting in" What a joke.

^Lol yeah I agree.

WarEngineer -- you went to a good junior high and got great marks THERE and you think that made you REALLY CLOSE to geting into Harvard and MIT?

Thats what I was thinking

At least here with Oxford and Cambridge people have an idea because they request applicants for the interview stage.

Actually, his parents probably lost their jobs and had to go to Canada

...to find jobs

Yes I am

No, you're not.

Her avatar says it. She must be.

dang, sort of harsh there.

maybe he was close.

wow, u guys ....what can i say. believe me or not. over 60% of my school's graduates end up in Havard/MIT/Princeton/Yale....

u dont have to believe me, i dont give a rat's @$$ what u believe or not, but that's what happened. schools like Harvard can only accept so many international students and student from out of province.
I lived there....I was at the right spot at the wrong time.

dont give me all that insult crap....u can all go fu-k urselves.
my uncle was so pissed off because i had to move that he wanted me to still apply for MIT and Harvard. I didnt bother.

Even if your school sends 60% of its graduates to some Ivy, your claim was still highly unprecedented. Do you think that attending a school like Exeter or Andover means automatic admission to an Ivy?

Besides, judging by the manner in which you handled this situation, I somehow doubt that you possess the maturity to survive at a school such as Harvard. You've merely reinfoced our doubts.

edit

quit whining, sod off

Might have been but theres no way he could know that so its pointless saying so.

Mate if he took back what he said then would that make you happier?


Geezus

The thing is, you were talking about your scores from JUNIOR HIGH. That has no factor into which college you attend. And JUST because you go to a certain high school does not mean that you're so much closer into getting into Harvard/MIT/Yale/etc.

And out of province as in out of state? That is probably true, but you know, a state is pretty huge. They have a huge population to pick from.

Anyways, IMO, if you didn't get an interview, you can't say that you were SO CLOSE to getting in.

And I don't get what your uncle story has to do with anything.

sex anyone?

but i got to macdonald's Hamburger University, if u guys are interested heres the site.

lol I love jess, shes such a b!tch

I much prefer Yale. How can you compare some SUN to NO SUN? Harvard gets cold in the winters.. I mean really cold.. Yale all the way!

Weather? How do you compare Lake Old Campus to... persistent snowdrifts that absorb cars? Hrm... toss-up.

IMO Yale is a better undergrad institution because the big name professors at Yale are required to teach undergrad classes and teaching assistants are teaching assistants. Harvard is a better grad institution because big named professors are not required to teach undergrad classes... and Yale Law only accepts a handful of people. ...but that might not be the reasons why tiff is asking, and there are many other reason to consider other than these broad generalizations that may or may not be correct to specific professors or departments.

That and:
