Extracurricular Information
I applied straight out of undergrad, and I graduated early, so I was very young while applying.
Happy about the sweep and about YLS (especially since I applied so late in the cycle), but chose HLS because it was a better fit. Yale felt too small for me.
Deferred for a year.
Scholarship $ is merit-based.

TITLE REQUIRED Thursday, August 30th, 2007 at 10:29 pm
well i dont think my academic adventurism is going to win me any points, but i'm hoping. do your preferences reflect the rankings?
Good luck on your apps! Thursday, September 27th, 2007 at 12:20 pm

Nevertheless, good luck!

interview Tuesday, November 6th, 2007 at 12:38 am
It was pretty informal. He started with "whats been keeping you busy lately". Then asked me 2 or 3 questions about my application. I think I kinda babbled and definitely didn't sound too bright. We'll see how important these things are.

Congrats on Boalt! It's nice to hear something before Thanksgiving.

Congrats on all your acceptances!
Just wondering because your #s look a lot like someone I know - are you F.G.?
Congrats regardless! I'm sure I'll see you at some acceptance weekends!

I'm also down to the Stanford and Yale apps. I understand your struggles ;)
Down to one Monday, December 10th, 2007 at 7:03 pm
It looks like both of us are now down to Yale. I can only hope my cycle goes as well as yours has so far. Is the Yale 250 holding you up?
p.s. You seem to be very impressive beyond your numbers. You need to get that 250 in and complete your clean sweep.

Hey! Thursday, December 13th, 2007 at 1:35 pm
Congrats to you too! You have some amazing schools to choose from already! I am still waiting on a few more schools which are my first choices so I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Is your first choice Harvard?
I understand... Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008 at 11:06 am
I freaked out and submitted something that probably wasn't ready because I couldn't stand waiting anymore.
Congrats! Please Withdraw Sunday, January 13th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Can you withdraw now from Boalt please if you want to go to H?

Question Tuesday, April 15th, 2008 at 5:44 pm
Hey... I'm a college student considering graduating a year early also. Would you mind sharing your extracurriculars and background? You can just email me if you like. I'm trying to gauge my chances of getting into a top school. Do you think getting out early gave you a whiz-kid appeal or anything like that? Thanks a million.
Why no Stanford? Sunday, March 8th, 2009 at 5:59 am
Just curious as to why you didn'nt apply to Stanford...or NYU or Penn, for that matter. Not that you needed to, but I'm curious about your thought-process.
