Wow, i don't have summer reading for my AP Classes, but since i go to a predom. black high school i prob. wont get until the 20th which is only 9 days before school starts. But then again, Baltimore County schools so they say aren't suppossed to give summer reading assignments, its against some kinda code. i am not sure. Shell, i should do that, because i seriously think my Spelman essay is horrible lol.

Yeah I saw that essay up there for Hampton as well but it looks like they havent updated that page in ages so I am going with the Essay I saw in the admissions book I received along with what I saw on the computer application because I would think it would be more up to date but I suppose you can always call but I am going with the one in the application book ... and I know a guy that goes to Hampton and he said that he doesnt remember that being his topic but Ooh well ... as far as Howard is concerned lol who knows .... But because the SAT is out of 2400 now it would seem as if they would update their Web-sites !!!!
