Appeal that shit, you're way above the UCSD standards. The best excuse they can give you is prob "Not enough extra curriculars" If you end up going to Irvine, I"ll personally give you the most non homo bear hug in the world. | ||

It's the place you will be spending all of your time for the next four years. How do you like the culture there? Are there things to do? Can you picture yourself living there? Ask yourself those questions and see if you think you fit in. sorry, have to disagree with this. When you visit, you get to meet like a total of 10 students there, perhaps spend the night with them? You drop in on a couple classes, get bombarded by some guide with the usual info. You get to see a very small sample of what the campus has to offer. Visits don't do jack. | ||

I may apply for JHU next year, but I won't do it if going to JHU places me in the middle of gang wars and gun violences. Afterall, Baltimore has the highest rate of homocide in the states. | ||

Terrible neighborhood, right smack dab in the middle of where you don't want to be. | ||

But it's nice to hear schools stepping up the security. Shit, I wouldn't ever want to go to a school that has apathetic security. | ||

Figured since it was smack dab right in Baltimore, with the notorious crime rate in the area it was just a given. But it's nice to hear schools stepping up the security. Shit, I wouldn't ever want to go to a school that has apathetic security. lol i'm sure that there'd be way more stories like http://articles.baltimoresun.com/2009-09-16/news/0909150076_1_samurai-sword-samurai-weapon-pontolillo if it were that common | ||
