Yeah, the campus was what mainly drew me Eau Claire, but after I kind of decided that I was gonna head towards a Political Science major and go on to law school after that, I realized that Eau Claire was probably not the place for me.

Anyway, I'm moving out to the University of Iowa tomorrow morning and start class next Monday. I'm a freshman.

I'm gonna be a freshman at UW-Milwaukee. I am excited to move out of Winona, Minnesota. Start school on September 4th.
BTW, person with the cake schedule, don't worry, u will prolly suck on your college placement tests, but u will get into a college. My senior year schedule looked like cake, but I had a hard junior year, so its all good.

start next monday. Everyone else around here started today but lucky for me my high school was doing a lot of renovations over the summer and we won't start until next week so they can finish up all of the construction and such.
Will be a junior, and defiantly not looking forward to it.
I must admit though, these high school years are flying by. It is scary to think that when I first came to this very site, I was a little freshman going through puberty and being pretty much in awe of the whole high school scene (which turns out to suck).

For me it's weird to think that I'll be going onto this site at college, and not at my house or house high school.

haha nice nice... but still a schedule like that is going to come back to bite you in the ass even when applying to mildy competitive state schools... This is my senior year and the whole college app thing is really annoying... I took competitive courses last year and got nothing lower Bs and i'm still worried about getting into my top schools which aren't too hard...

Or u could do it my way, take pretty tough courses in junior year, get Cs in them, and then slack off in senior year. I mean my afternoons during senior year was being a teachers assistant, I corrected a few papers, and band or phy ed and band in the second semester, and then get an awful score on the ACTs or SATs. And I got into college. However, UWM is not the hardest of colleges to get into if u are in the top 50% of my class like I was.

I live like a block away from that school. I would never even think about getting in there though. I know kids that have had 4.2's with good SAT scores and got rejected there.

You're probably thinking of UW-Madison (Wisconsin), he's going to UW-Milwaukee (UWM).

I start next week Monday.
Applying was really not a big thing for me. I put in a broad application and was accepted to several honors programs at good schools. Of course I ended picking pretty much the worst one with Buffalo State, but it's good for what my major is so I'll take it.

Hey man you never know...a lot of the UCs seem to be pretty random like that...I had a 4.2 with a 1920 SAT (not bad, but not great)...I wanted to go to UCLA, but didnt get in, while I know plenty of people with worse resume's who did...its weird like that...I guess there are just way too many applicants, but understandable because the quality of the education for the price (in state) is unbeatable...but yea I happy about my choice and hopefully it'll be a lot of fun...hard, but fun.
