I Hope You Get a Rejection Letter

  
  
  
Rejected by smemon87

This boston.com recent article (or, republished article) on the "college rejection letter" got me thinking how important it is to actually get those rejection letters. (Hat tip to @KylePaice for tweeting out the article.)

My DartBoston Pokin' Holes Debut - Critiquing Launch Into Boston

  
  
  

Last night I finally made it out to my first DartBoston Pokin' Holes event and I was on a panel of three critiquing Launch Into Boston.

More Americans Head North For Good But Affordable College

  
  
  

The secret's out - Canadian schools are a great education at a great price, plus the application process is much easier. It's definitely what got me to go to McGill... So easy to apply (online, no essay, no interviews) and I could attend for less than half the price of a regular US college. Right, and it was a great education too.

Another "Sixth Photo" (Just For Fun)

  
  
  

After my last post about the Sixth Photo Meme, I was all excited about going through my old photos again. So I went back to my Facebook photos and this time looked at the sixth photo of my sixth album (rather than the sixth photo on the sixth page). Here's what I found:

Late Night Cramming

  
  
  

I would have thought that my late night cramming days were behind me. That I wouldn't be typing typing away in the beautiful silence that only comes with a completely sound asleep household - er - apartment building.

McGill School Spirit: #12 in World Rankings

  
  
  
McGill is not really known for its sense of university community or school spirit (except for maybe this little treat we saw in RI:)















The real good stuff is here, though: McGill ranked #1 in Canada and #12 in world rankings. Gotta love it. I always recommend McGill to everyone considering where to go for university. Great education, great people, great city. If you want both reputation and experience (without the pretentiousness that comes with some other schools), plus a much lower tuition, McGill could be the right choice for you.
