Last year there was a thread about college acceptance. Well, its a new year and a new generation, so I guess we deserve a new thread. So...where'd you apply and where'd you get accepted?

Idk where I'ma go, or what I want to study.
If you don't know what you want to study, pick a big university over a little college. More departments, more facilities, more kids, more opportunity. My $.0000000002.

I have some great scholarships at Tech, and Golden, and UNM.
So I'm leaning towards UNM for freshman year.

I teach myself. It's a pretty exclusive way to out-smart colleges.
But harder to prove...
Seriously, everyone teaches themselves. College is half useful resources, a fourth definite deadlines (practically a
resource in itself as nothing unleashes creativity like a deadline) and a fourth proof of studies.
All that aside, remember that Newton did the bulk of his work during the two years school was called on
account of plague. Liebnitz developed his calculus after finishing law school. DesCartes developed the
co-ordinate plane because he liked sleeping in (for which I love him!). Euler facking invented half of what they
teach, just couldn't be bothered proving it with all his time being taken up being brilliant and such.
Gauss... well... Gauss just makes everybody look retarded for having to learn in the first place.

Anyone else here back from some schools?
I got accepted to Gonzaga and Villanova and Santa Clara.
Wait listed at McGill. It was a crapshoot so whatever.
Anyone go/applied to Gonzaga? What do you think about the school and area?
I'm super surprised I got into villanova cus I sent them the essay for another school. I kinda wanna go there since they're a top ranked engineering school, but the lack of diversity and fun are major turnoffs. Anyone care to chime in?
