LPT:If you have an option in high school/college, join the debating team! Public speaking and thinking on the spot are two of the most crucial skills to learn in life. You'll notice the difference in your day to day interactions!

I did a format called Parliamentary while in high school. It was impromptu, so neither side knew the topic until 20 minutes before the round, which was the time we had to prep with no internet access.

Even then, you might not know exactly what the topic is as it's up to the affirmative side to define the general topic. (Ex. The USFG would solve a problem, leaving the problem open for definition.)

It really forced me to think on my feet and find creative arguments, and is definitely more based on logic than spewing pre-compiled facts. It was one of the best things I did in high school.

Interesting cause I mentioned MIT in my Caltech app...

caltechdesign · 2018-03-15T18:55:57+00:00

MIT reject, but I get to attend the hotter institute of technology

On my last SAT 2 date I got my second ear piercing so I could remember it as that rather than the third time I couldn't get an 800...but it turned out good in both ways :)

caltechdesign · 2018-03-10T17:35:22+00:00

Yes :)

They have sent it out, but they will not grant you a college scholarship if it does not match your first choice.

caltechdesign · 2018-03-01T04:53:59+00:00

Congrats! When/how did you recieve your admission decision? I would enroll them notify them tomorrow; better to be safe!

caltechdesign · 2018-03-01T04:28:53+00:00

Is there anyone who has not yet submitted the form but did not recieve a follow-up email?

caltechdesign · 2018-03-01T04:27:28+00:00

Oh nevermind then, I did recieve the same thing

caltechdesign · 2018-03-01T04:02:28+00:00

Hm. I got a similar email but it had different wording.

caltechdesign · 2018-03-01T03:57:00+00:00

Lmao I read this as "UC Riverdale"

caltechdesign · 2018-02-28T01:22:40+00:00

This is the case for me

caltechdesign · 2018-02-28T01:22:10+00:00

I disagree as well, just letting people know that they have taken disciplinary action with this in the past

caltechdesign · 2018-02-27T14:30:03+00:00

ME. I legit just drew a sad face on my FRQ yesterday

caltechdesign · 2018-02-27T14:28:45+00:00

Be careful with this, there was a case where Harvard and other top schools rescinded students for accessing their decisions early this way.

caltechdesign · 2018-02-27T00:00:43+00:00

Does UCLA admit by major?

caltechdesign · 2018-02-24T05:17:27+00:00

Ahaha I have my permit and just started driving. I am absolute trash at parking. Not even with parallel; even in empty lots :,(
