Ah, Punar is awesome. I met him back at Science Olympiad last year, and I remember him when we were your first alliance partners for seeding in 2003. He's really cool, I wish him luck.

I'll be applying to both Purdue and IUPUI here, the deciding factor will be cost since both of them offer Computer Graphics Technology.

DJ, did you expect anything less from me, to misspell an important word? :p

MIT
CalTech
Cornell
U.C. Berkeley
Harvard
Stanford
:rolleyes:

...Yeah Right!!! I don't think I have the scores required to get into ANY of those.

More realistic possibilities:

UPenn
U of M (University of Michigan for those who don't knwo)
Georgia Tech

Definite Possibility:

Purdue University. Looking for 8 years on 461. What what?!?

Holy cheese, I didn't even realize that school had a FIRST scholarship. Heh. Thanks!

Re: Class of 05: Where are You Applying?
 
Here's my list:

MRAIT (Michigan Recording Arts Institute and Technologies)
- I enjoy doing music, thus I'm attempting to go into it professionally.

NIT (National Institute of Technology)
- Computers are also my thing

Probably more, but I've only looked into these mainly. I'm really hoping for the first one.

*P.S.: This isn't really a college, but a hands-on program for music producing, etc...*:
Recording Connection
- This has seemed to get a lot of good feedback.

University of Waterloo (in Ontario)
University of Toronto (in Ontario)
Macmaster University (in Ontario)

For all those of you applying to MIT and Caltech, NO ONE from my school got in this year, not even the students who are first, second, and third in the class. And my school is no low scoring school either. These students had GPAs like over 4.5 and outstanding SAT scores and extra-curricular activites and service hours and everything.

Keep your options open people.

Hm, that's not very optimistic sanddrag. Three senior friends of mine got into MIT this year and another two friends got into Harvard (there were probably more that I don't know about but can check school records next year to find out). I don't think anyone got into Caltech though :( Our PTA newsletter had a brief about a Wall Street Journal ranking that was done in May - public high school w/highest acceptance rates into top colleges (mostly Ivy league). Ithaca was #4 (and #1 for REAL public schools, top 3 had placement tests and whatnot). The rating looked biased (since there were a LOT of NY schools) but it seemed reasonable since 10% of the graduating class here go to Cornell each year :P

But yeah, gotta have backups!

Re: Class of 05: Where are You Applying?
 
As of now:
FIT
Eckerd
Coastal Carolina
Uconn (back-up)

I wanna be a marine bio major, thus the lack of MIT and other various high ranking technology schools.
Plus the southern east coast is WARM, and i'm tired of waiting outside the UTC regional in like 2 degree weather with a large metal basket, and forgot to bring anything more than a sweatshirt
THAT is cold

plus FIT has (helps?) a team, and has a pretty darn big robotics scholarship:D

Re: Class of 05: Where are You Applying?
 
Fortunately, my college search didn't last too long. I think at this point I've definetly found the college I want to attend, Norwich University, and I've even already applied (I spent a week there at an engineering camp). I'd really reccomend looking at this college for anyone who like being in New England, wants hands on classes, and doesn't mind that they only offer the 4 basic types of engineering (Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, Computer).

My back up school is University of Massachusetts - Lowell.
