Miscellaneous

This is a document I began in November of 2021 and finished in February of 2022. Its name explains its contents. I write any ideas I have while at my computer and save any cool websites I find.

When the first Random Notes got too long, I created a second. Same idea.

This is the third iteration after the second one got too long.

Now onto the fourth! This is an in-progress document, so it is regularly updated with new notes.

When I applied to colleges in late 2021 and early 2022, I used this document to gauge my interest and track my progress. I preferred quantitative metrics for schools. I used this NYTimes site most regularly for my research. I did not apply to the colleges which are grey in the second column. I’m happy to have been accepted to Babson College, but I would have loved to go to a top-20 school if my grades were better. All my high school grades are also on this spreadsheet.

I made this document because I am curious about super-rich people. I wanted to see what industries they tend to come from, and I wanted to take some notes on their backgrounds. I only covered a few, and I plan to automate this research later to collect data more efficiently.
