", when i grow up;"edinburgh univ is awesome.
i didnt know it's ranked 3rd in uk
and in the top100 world ranking.
i really like one particular course they offer,
BA of Architecture or sth,
which leads on to a 2yrs study in Design.
it's exactly what i'm looking for.
it combines almost all of my interest.
hmm yea,
so these days,
in the midst of final exams
and preparation for SAT/ACT,
i have been surfing the net for information on these univs:
Edinburgh Univ.
Univ.College of London.
Univ. of Syndey.
Univ. of NSW.
all top choices, i know.
stiff competition and all that.
i'll apply for a few more safe schs.
im not silly.
it'll be a miracle if i can get into any of those univs.
as for the states,
i really need recommendations.
i have no idea which univ to apply to.
i mean,
the ivy league is fine and dandy,
but do i really want to aim so high?
more like,
can i??
arent there good univs in the states
that are not in the league?
come on d,
i need some names.
so yea,
in total im probably going to apply at abt 10 univs.
hahh.
thats what u call kiasu.
but seriously,
who knows?
i dont even know which country i want to go to
(though edinburgh in scotland is highly appealing).
anyway,
it's hardly my choice.
i'm not good enough to choose.
ok back to revision.
two more exams tmr.
and classical studies exam ytd was fantastically shocking.
more than half the ppl left the examination within the first 2 hrs of the exam.
and i dont blame them.
i mean,
every single paper had elements of unknown and untaught contents in it,
who would have the gut and knowledge to do the papers anyway?
how often to do u get papers
that ask qns never taught or seen before?
fortunately,
despite my limited revision,
i managed to dig out enough info from my memory to finish the papers to my best.
i dont dare to think abt the results,
all i can say is,
if i dont score full Excellences,
very few can,
coz < thirty ppl stayed till the end of the exam to finish the papers.
imagine the probability of possible Es.
