Do your worst!
Hi all. First of all, thanks for your help during the last months, it was a key part of scoring 1500 on August SAT.
I know 1500 is an outstanding score. The thing is, I am an international student from Argentina and I need a full ride scholarship, which is why I will mainly apply to elite schools. Furthermore, I have always dreamt of going to Stanford, and I would not like an exam score disallow me to fulfill this dream. My subscores are 800 Math, 350 Reading and 350 Writing. In my practice test I was scoring ~730 in the R+W section. If I was to retake, I should do it on December since late registration is no permitted to international students (and since I don't have the money, I couldn't register before knowing my score).
I think my honours are great: I have received an Honourable Mention at the International Mathematical Olympiad and a Bronze Medal at the Ibero American Computer Science Olympiad. I have recently been named as one of the top 50 students worldwide by Varkey Foundation.
Apart from that, I think I have great ECs. I created an app that helps people with dyslexia with more than 5k downloads, I am participating in a Cognitive Neuroscience research group with an emeritus professor from University College London, and I have been a class president of my Student Council for the last 5 years. I also play rugby and have done some Artificial Intelligence internships.
If you need any more information about me, please let me know. I just want to make the best decision in order to fulfill my dream. Thanks!
Edit: added more information about me.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!
You take away their little brooms
This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
There hasn't been a post all year!
It’s pronounced “Noel.”
After all his first name is No-vac
