Which ones?
:I wouldn't have wanted to go to a tiny private school, but I could easily say
: that I didn't know 30% of my graduating class, and wouldn't recognize them if I ran

: still.
You knew 70% of your class? Does that include the asians?

That's interesting, because after this year is over (I'll be a senior next year), I'll have written 2 papers in 3 years. I'm terrified for college.
As for getting lost in the shuffle, I take it that it's a NYC public school thing, not just Science. Fucking board of ed.
