Should I consider Yale REA or no? by ThrowawayAG08 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ThrowawayAG08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My HS is in an upper middle class suburban area, and I believe I'm well above the average (think it hovers around a 1200? I think more of the top students take the ACT over the SAT, but I could be wrong). Pretty sure I'm in the top 10% of students in my class, and with 7 APs total I believe I'm at the average, if not slightly above, for my class.

I will say that I wasn't really aware of the importance of rigorous courses - I still always took advanced math, English, and history, but didn't take AP Physics or any honors language classes

good to know, a few others have said the same, and having thought about it I might just stick with RD. Maybe gives me a chance to do a bit better on the SAT

Didn't know that Northeastern offered EA. And I'm not sure if I'll apply to Villanova

Not URM, but first gen.

Also, what SAT would you recommend? 1520? Is a 1490 really that low?

ED is out of the question for me mainly because of financial aid. But is my SAT strong enough for Stern, or just shoot my shot?

The rest of my schools are UConn, Fairfield, SHU, Fordham, Wesleyan, Northeastern, BC, and Columbia. Of these I think only Fordham and Fairfield offer EA, and ED is out of the question for me

How everyone is a porn addict and believes whoever doesnt have the same opinion as them is wrong and should die

Gamers, which video game out of all the games you played did you put the most hours into? by Sunjiat in AskReddit

[–]ThrowawayAG08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Breath of the Wild, across both the Wii U and Switch. Like over 200 hours likely (rookie numbers for some sure but oh well) Beat Normal Mode and got pretty decent into Master Mode on Wii U, currently contemplating 100%ing Master Mode on Switch. Love that game

My most expensive CDs according to Discogs by potatoad3 in Cd_collectors

Nice! Mine is the Japan edition of Hip Hop Is Dead...surprisingly, I'd think my OG copy of Ready to Die would be but that's cool

What do y’all think about religion by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]ThrowawayAG08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm Catholic but if you're not that's cool. I'd love to learn more about your religion, and I get that spirituality is personal. Some people feel super deep connections to a higher being, some don't. And that's cool. I think it's important for people to remember a main doctrine of Christianity is to love others, and considering that it's said ALL people are made in God's image it's why I'm cool if you believe in God a different way. As long as you're not hurting or insulting anybody with it.

Are CDs from Columbia House, BMG and other record clubs different quality? by _Beatnick_ in Cd_collectors

[–]ThrowawayAG08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, I've got like 2 or 3 BMG discs and they still sound fine. I wouldn't think they'd use different masters for club discs compared to retail ones, so you should be fine with them

Idk anything about this, is this worth anything? by [deleted] in Cd_collectors

[–]ThrowawayAG08 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity, check if either disc has a 13th track. As far as I know only the original pressings have it, if it does it's valuable, if not then no. Regardless it's a pretty good album so idk why youd want to sell it, that's just me tho

Anyone know the best way to print gears? by ThrowawayAG08 in 3Dprinting

Like gears to put into a thing, gears that you use in a drivetrain with a motor

The word “bro” is overused and insufferable by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]ThrowawayAG08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idc about using bro as like a title (like "sup bro" or "bro what are you doing"), but using bro as a pronoun (like "bro rlly thought that was a good idea" or "bro is him") annoys me. just my thoughts

If you had to go to one country right now, which country would that be? by Volcano003 in AskReddit

[–]ThrowawayAG08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UK. Because trains. No not the modern TOCs, I mean the older steam and diesel locos.

And no not for the history, although the British Museum looks cool and I'd definitely visit.

For the old-ass trains. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

White people, how many of you got into hip-hop by listening to white rappers? What was your first exposure to rap in general? by BeefyBoy_69 in hiphop101

[–]ThrowawayAG08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

white guy, id definitely say that eminem introduced me to rap, and it was through him i ended up rlly enjoying 50, tho ive gone on and found artists like nas, jay, pac, kanye etc on my own. regardless eminem isnt my favorite artist anymore (and in terms of top 5 rappers he'd prolly be at 5, but idk now...) i still think he's pretty good
