What's weird is, by my count we have 4 HS GMs. I don't want BBS to become all college kids. That sucks. I remember when we were the HS kids, and BBS needs its youth. If we don't stay young, how will we rebuild? We'll just be old and overpaid, approaching the hard cap. BBS needs some firsts. Skillz and Nova. Who are the other 2?

colby.edu/admissions_cs/financial_aid/?clear=y$50,120 annually for 08-09 at my Alma Mater. I graduated 9 years ago, and it was around 35K then......so basically it's jumping about 5% every year. Looks like my daughter will be hitting the local Community Colleges in 2024. Yeah community college is the way to go. Easier and way cheaper. And too be honest, I like the small classroom size, and being able to talk to your teacher whenever you want. Plus the rock creek campus, where I'm at is really nice. I like it. Shouldn't you be in High School though.

I'm actually going to spend 3 years at a community college and take as many credits as possible (I think the transfer limit is 124), because it's a lot cheaper. And I'm just finishing up my second year. So technically, I guess I'm still a freshman.

hahaha that would be interesting I don't think i end up there though. It's a very good college but i don't think it's in my top 5 right now for what I think i want to do. My best friends sister is in Ithaca majoring in communications so you have some good company lol What do you want to do? And whats your top 5?

Am I evil for finding it funny that a horse had to be euthanized right after the Kentucky Derby? This is very disturbing. Might want to talk to someone about that.

My best friends sister is in Ithaca majoring in communications so you have some good company lol What do you want to do? And whats your top 5? I'm a big history buff, so probably a history major. I'm taking AP gov and AP us, and have a bunch of social studies and english credits. Dartmouth--Obviously a reach. My Dad and sister went there though and they're big on legacy. My GPA is not up to par for an ivy league school, though i do have good extracurriculars and good SAT scores. Colgate University--2nd reach school, though my qualifications fit somewhere in the middle for Colgate, it's very hard to get in Emory University--Good school, I'd have a decent chance to play tennis for them as a walk on New York University--Good chance i get in. Other students with lesser qualifications at our school have gotten in. Boston University--One of my safeties I guess. I'm slightly over qualified and i have a connection there. Also considering Villanova, Ithaca My dream school is Stanford BTW, there is just a 0% chance i'd even have a shot of getting in "Qualifications:" -Go to one of the better public schools in the nation -I have a 3.68 academic/weighted GPA. I take a tough course load but my grades should be higher. My GPA disables me from going to any elite colleges. -SAT"s: M:680 CR:660 W:740 (12 on essay) -Played varsity tennis since Freshman year, played JV basketball as a freshman/sophmore but stopped after that -Co sports editor of our newspapers website (I do nothing ) -I have a sports radio show with my friend pretty regularly Friday nights (WWPT Wrecker Radio--no one listens ) -An our or 2 of community service every week since freshman year at the senior center Well there's my life story.

Skillz, what do you plan on doing eventually? I'm a history and political science major with a minor in economics. I originally intended to go for history and economics, but I really hate economics. However, I've taken micro and macro already so I may as well take the three more courses required for a minor.
I'm planning on going to law school.

I guess so. Getting a law degree just opens up so many options.
