<p>I hear ya on the not being able to focus thing. My brain is so scattered. I keep telling myself that Pitt is a good school over and over, just in case I get a rejection on Wednesday. And, to make matters worse, I have 2 3000 word papers due this week, one for AP euro and one for english lit. If i get a rejection idk how i’ll bring myself to finish.</p>
<p>countdown for ED:
1 day 21 hours 43 min 9 sec.!!!</p>
<p>So what plans do you guys have for receiving your decision? I’ve heard of people having a bunch of movies that they start watching, then when it comes time they just simply check their email till it comes, set the laptop down, and continue watching (if rejected or deferred).</p>
<p>That sounds like a pretty good idea at this point…I keep telling people when they ask that I probably wont get in, that way I’ll feel better if I get rejected :(</p>
<p>well i have finals this week so if i get rejected/deferred i’ll just bury myself in a textbook. if i get accepted on the other hand ill probably go crazy and not be able to study.</p>
<p>@seandonohue8: thats exactly what im doing right now 
i dont want to think ill get in and break down when i find out i got deferred or rejected…</p>
<p>sigh seriously… i wouldnt know how to respond if its bad news…</p>
<p>@seandonohue8: Ugh I’ve been telling everyone that I’ll probably get rejected too, just in case. So then if I do I’ll be like, “it was expected”.</p>
<p>If I get rejected, I’ll just bury myself in a text book like tboypatel cause I got finals too… if I get accepted I think I’m gonna get a triple scoop of ice cream from Rite Aid :)))</p>
<p>if i get rejected im just gonna bury myself in bed and im not going to come out for few weeks… if i get accepted im going to… party all night</p>
<p>i will commit unspeakable atrocities. that being said. i wish everyone good luck :)</p>
<p>what are all your states? like SATs and GPA and stuff…just curious…
I got 700M 700CR 800W
SAT II M2:760 Bio E: 690
and my GPA is something not rly sure, about 4.1 weighted.</p>
<p>I got a 29 on the ACT, so it’s low for them.
But my weighted GPA is a 4.4 and unweighted is like a 3.9
So idk how it’s going to swing.</p>
<p>sounds pretty good to me, you have a great shot. we all do i guess :D. My GPA is dreadfully low…and my SAT is not balanced…my essays were pretty good though.</p>
