Accepted!

[Paul]

Well, I got early acceptance into University of Waterloo for Computer Science Co-op, not gonna accept offer yet, because I also applied for math and business double degree, 2 bachelors for my time

I chose BCS instead of Bmath. I dunno if I can switch, 'cause I hear Bmath you learn more stuff?

[Cervantes]

Nice.

Hikaru79 and I got accepted to Toronto on Monday. Him for co-op CS, me for Math and Physics. I got $8000.


Gotta submit my Waterloo AIF's. Hope to do that in the next 30 minutes.

[Paul]

Hm, UT just called me about EngSci, I thought it would be a phone interview, but it wasn't. Never made it clear about accepting me or not. And even if they did, I'm not sure I'll go. Its an excellent opportunity, but geezus... its tough.

Cool, I'm in grade 10 so I'm only scouting but what are your guys averages from high school? Of if your still there what are they now?

[Paul]

88, 89, 90, 91 for my 4 years, maths being highest marks

Anyway, I just found out ALL the students from my school with decent marks (over 85% average) got into ALL the math programs they applied for, the simple ones like math, computational, CS etc...

heh, thats funny. Mass early acceptances. Math is prided at our school though, we have an absolutely terrible CS program.

[Paul]

Holy crap, my friend Will is leet, he got early acceptance into double degree o_O. Well I know he's up at the top for math.. but still.

[Martin]

Cool, I'll see you guys there

My average was ... 75 in highschool maybe?

how is that leet? alot of people get in that program...

[Paul]

Well early acceptance, a bunch of people applied, that I know of, he's the only one who's got an early acceptance.

And he's leet 'cause he's... well Will, will's always leet, at everything. Always at the top.

Anyway, I just realized, all the people who applied to the math faculty and are in the AP calc course got offers in to the math they wanted. Its nothing big though, the others will just have to wait a bit longer.

[we64]

yeah, Will is leet. DD never offers early acceptance. After all he is Will, he is good at math, not just good, very good in math and CS. Just to show you how good he is, he got 91 last year in Euclid.
But he is applying to US, Princeton, already had an interview and it went well I guess. If he get accepted from there, I think he will go, at least I will go if I am him.

Not to be popping bubbles here, but I don't honestly consider early acceptance into anything in Ontario "leet" based solely on that. Ontario isn't exactly the stellar height of difficult admissions.

Early acceptance into Princeton and Stanford on the other hand...

Woot! Waterloo AIF (Math) is in! It's scary how long that took. Engineering one is going to be even worse.

Paul - Go for BMath!

This is an odd post time for me.

Edit: Yeah, yeah, Martin. You only live once. Go live life. Yeah.

Thank you for your opinion, not that it was asked for. I shall continue to apply "leetness" to whoever the hell I want. Will did apply to princeton, and he's going to be accepted. Its a personal opinion, sorry to pop your bubble, but yours does not override mine. Even if you do get accepted into princeton early, I still would consider Will to be better. You know why? 'cause he's an awesome person. Now go away and troll somewhere else. If you want to start a thread about admission standards, go start a thread.

Cervantes: yea, prolly Bmath.

Not only that but waterloo is just as recognized as school for CS as the top US univerisities (or colleges, or whatever they are called). I'd definitely consider it to be leet. Something about the 70%-90% drop out rate for CS also says something about difficulty.
