Caltech mailed me, expressing interest in me applying for their school :O According to one article I read, they are in the top five or top three schools for the field of study I'm interested, Materials Engineering I am SO excited, I REALLY want to go to this school!!!! Thought I'd share it with you guys! Also... Just so we are all clear.. Junior is male. :lol:
Aww, let him live up the moment. But that makes me curious.. have you already applied there? Or is it an unsolicited interest letter?
lol FB *headdesk* yeah, I took a PSAT, and signed up for mailings from different colleges, and I've ignored most of them but I know I haven't recieved anything from MIT, so I like to think I passed through some initial filter I haven't applied yet, only a sophomore, but I will be applying come the spring of junior year
Well even if it's just a "look at our college" letter, there /may/ still be something behind it *ms.optimism* And good luck when the time does come around!!!
Those mailings do indicate your psat scores are good, which is great news It's a good indicator that the school could be around your level. If you're much better at taking tests than you are at school, or your standardized test scores are alot higher than is normal for your GPA and classes because you're a huge slacker (like me, HA), your psat mailings will askew. I got STACKS of mail from Harvard, Columbia, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, etc. after my SAT scores came out but I have no chance of getting into those schools, but my test scores are in or above the scores typical of their students. Laziness ftw.
