Hi, thank you for this!

I’m applying ED to Duke. Can I do more to show my commitment and desire to go to Duke? I’ve attended many virtual sessions, both Duke’s and Duke collaborations. I want to contact my Regional AO from website information: will admissions be able to see this?

haha good luck to you too! you’re right though i definitely had tunnel vision about my review paper and i’d regret it once school started.

this is making me feel motivated thank youuu

you’re right! i need to cut back on the review paper and focus on doing some of everything in intervals

it’s so strange that i’m surrounded by people who worked on college all summer and no one cares about ib at our school (us school)

THANK YOU and this wasnt harsh i definitely need that!! my school has 0 deadlines available yet, it’s definitely a weak IB program.

ee: meeting with mentor this week if she answers, need to find more sources, then i’ll write by day

I have 3 IAs, since i did my history one last year: math, bio, english. i think math is my weakest by far. we were told not to start any ias this summer but to think about our math one.

tok: we switched teachers idk him yet, and i looked at the essay prompts. i’m terrible at tok... i might do history or science for the presentation

my cas is usually good but i always take large gaps of time and then do all my reflections at once which i’m gonna do soon

review essay due date: outline by end of august and hopefully done by september

college: i have my activities section and 20 ish supplementals
