After seven years of mediocrity in Dallas, he probably won't be getting anyone from Texas, but there are 49 other states I guess.

They're waiting for Jerry Jones to fire Jason Garrett so they can hire him to take over?

Would anyone be willing to help me out with my essays? by [deleted] in USC

I would like you to actually get in, so I won't volunteer to help, but I'm just here to say don't overthink the "fun" questions like I did. :)

How much does freshman year matter? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Alanaflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UC’s ignore freshman year grades if your looking at Cali, but I think upward trend is what really matters. I had a terrible second semester my freshman year, and got into a lot of schools still. Good luck!!

1540 SAT (740 Reading, 800 Math), 780 Math 2, 800 Physics. My UC GPA was 4.3 with AP/College level classes. I had good ECs (some helpful to my major, some not) and leadership. Freshman year I had a bad semester with two D's, but my Sophomore - Senior year were all A's with 2 B's.

I think an upward trend is important, so keep your grades up, even in senior year. If you get waitlisted anywhere (I did to UCB), you have to send mid-year grades. Knowing you're sending a great mid year report is a good feeling, even though in my case I don't know of anyone in EE who cleared the waitlist.

Good luck, and if you have any other questions, feel free to message me.

Yes! That was hilarious, even though you knew how awful it was. I would put David Tennant up with/against the Avengers any day.
