i just read an article just now saying that the new SAT writing component gives high grades to long essays and lower grades to short ones without even looking at the content of the essay. says so much abt the american education. fancy thinking people use SAT grades to get into ivy leagues, though true, GPA, too, is impt. But GPA is sch-based.. jus like prelims.. if your sch is pretty lenient, then good for you. so much for "it's the quality that counts, not quantity" apparently it doesn't apply here. hmm, haha, maybe i'm being a sour grape for doing so badly in my SAT. i took the last one of the old SAT and i heard it was meant to be really tough. no wonder i did so badly. my other fren didn't do as well as expected too. i might re-take it early next year. jus in case i got a scholarship or for better opportunities into SMU.
hehe.. some funny stuff
off to study math, hist and econs
