[ BAD SAT SCORES ]
The SATs really frusterate me.
I recieved a 1480, but I have a 3.85 cum GPA (unweighted).
I play two varsity sports, partcipate in a club called Medical Explorers because I really want to have a medical profession (preferably pharmacy because I love chemistry), secretary of the sports medicine club, captain of the varsity lacrosse team, and volunteer a lot because of sports med and medical explorers. I also run nearly every single day because of cross country.. I've also stayed consistent with my school's orchestra and we're actually outstanding in the state because we've usually placed first in a lot of the state competitions. Junior year was harsh and I'm about to become a senior.. I'm just scared because I want to retake the SAT in the fall. I think a tutor is definitely necessary..
The state school is actually really competitive and has raised its standards these past two years.... The only good thing that came out of the SAT is that I scored an 11 on the essay. The rest was.. well, baloney. My calculator also died during the first section when I believed that I put fresh batteries (apparently that was my other calculator that I own...) |

Google indicates it's a Futurama reference. I find that's usually the case for references I don't catch. |

I refuse your oppressive type system on the grounds that it is entirely voluntary |

PS, my favorite one is claiming to not be a "person" and the forcefulness with which this is rejected by the courts. |

hey Tom, i just found this page while searching for that little font program you made. it has totally distracted me to see your diverse output. I aspire to be a similar geek "renaissance man," and in particular, here's my music page: htt pee://w w w.mattmontag.com/music
check that out, and in particular, check out the nintendo sonata there. I enjoy your song titles, and all the subtle references to culture i am very familiar with. Ok, going back to explore now. |

I am still working hard to beat hunter. In nightmare, my best result is 7:10. . I have played quake3 for an half year. |

Hmm, that difference is probably because of Wowei's patch to allow for international keyboards. I guess I should do that same thing throughout the game, so that it's always dvoark if you're using dvorak. Thanks! |
| |
a minor note, but i'm currently using the dvorak layout on a qwerty keyboard, and to navigate the menus i have to hit the qwerty keys, but in game i have to hit the dvorak keys. |

Indeed, I have already sought, and am now listening, with my Soul. Such a useful friend she is. |

No, I will have to seek... |

[ New! Escape 200704130 ]
Yes, you're right. In a previous version there was a problem where it would sometimes throw out solutions (bookmarks) when it shouldn't... so now it just always saves everything. Fixing this is the highest priority! |
| |
Hi Tom
These bookmark-things are really confusing. It just "bookmarks" whatever I'm doing! Any game I'm playing or trying becomes a bookmark... Even watching a downloaded original solution or speedrun becomes a new bookmark. So downloading existing solutions will "bookmark" them AND consider them as if I had solved the level that way. Watching a speedrun will bookmark it as my own solution, it appears as an "mm-solution". And so I'm deleting bookmarks again and again...
OMG, I can't explain it any better! All I know is: even without me "bookmarking" something, the game just " bookmarks" everything by itself.
Got it?
Watching a speedrun becomes: a NEW bookmark and speedrun made by ME! So I'm trying to just never ever push that button - but still, even without ever pushing the "b" - the game bookmarks WHATEVER!
Bookmarks are great - but now they seem to be "too" great!

The Beach Boys comparison is an interesting one... I never really thought of that. I'll have to check out the Gothic Archies too.
Sophia: have you heard Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton? I've been excited to hear that as well. |
| |
I've been loving that Metric album lately too. |

Heya Tom,
Unfortunately I've nothing new to say about Q3 (or 4 for that matter, tho gotta luv the graphics), so i'll just post this for the hell of it... go the "All Blacks (NZ)" for the world cup of Rugby 2007.
Props to "Pianist" and "Kalypso" for keeping the dream alive... hehe (God it's fun finding this thread). |

[ BAD SAT SCORES ]
try to get your sat score to at least 2200. i f you do, then you would have an excellent chance of getting into an ivy league school. However, sat scores are not the sole defining factor--there are other factors like the college essay, honors and awards, extra-cur, ap scores, etc. My advice: just try to get at least a 730 on each section of the SAT.
You are definitely on the right track!
afterall, i should know; i have just been accepted to Yale. |
