2013 Single Choice Early Action applicants thread

<p>LOL, Yeah, physics midterm going out the window. I hope I can recall enough tommorrow to scrape something remotely resembling a dead cow.</p>

<p>and hugging two polar bears is the epitome of masculinity! <em>shifty eyes</em> We were totally not doing anything inappropriate! xDD</p>

<p>Well i’m not usually this friendly and cordial. </p>

<p>I’m pretty fierce and insane actually. I bite people’s heads off in reality.</p>

<p>King, you are seriously sooo different from your friend. No joke. personality is like 180 degrees apart.</p>

<p>Go read some of the stuff said over on Harvard. You’re an angel.</p>

<p>…which is why i’m not applying to Harvard. I mean, besides the fact that I can’t get in anyways…</p>

<p>You think i’m an angel cuz you’re not my mom.</p>

<p>…Maybe I am! <em>Dramatic music</em></p>

<p>…</p>

<p>Not the response I anticipated.</p>

<p>What majors did you all select? I chose Chemistry.</p>

<p>^ Yet, she’d think you’re like heaven on wheels. If heaven could be put on wheels.</p>

<p>Biting people’s heads off. How do you mark that as an EC on the common app? ;)</p>

<p>and yeah, my friend and I are like. Polar opposites. I like how we’re having a conversation on CC while having a conversation on AIM too. xD</p>

<p>Biology, Molecular, developmental, w/e that last one is.</p>

<p>Earth Science</p>

<p>er, there’s another thread for majors.</p>

<p>OK guys.
Guess what my counselors did? They sent in the wrong transcript. With a lower GPA than I actually have. The difference is about small, but it really matters to me, since I repeatedly asked them to correct my grades for errors, which they did. Except they sent in transcripts printed off THIS SUMMER.</p>

<p>And I just found out TODAY.</p>

<p>Nightmare. </p>

<p>If the decisions have already been made and Yale doesn’t feel like going to all the trouble just to take a second look at ONE person, I would not be so surprised.</p>

<p>I feel like Yale just went down the drain.</p>

<p>Hey everyone,</p>

<pre><code>so…after reading all these yale threads every day for the past three weeks, (basically stalking all of u…sorry) i am finally joining cc.
</code></pre>

<p>Reading your posts makes me so nervous!!! i will probably die of anxiety before dec 15th</p>

<p>oh, and mistofthekane - that is horrible!</p>

<p>:/ I hope everything turns out well, mist. You said its not too big of a deal, so try not to worry so much about it. After all, we know Yale does stuff holistically, so they aren’t going to change your decision based on your getting like a 98.2 rather than a 98.6.</p>

<p>And irunoninsulin, I just did the same thing! I tried to make an account with my aol email address and after a week didn’t get anything, so I changed it to my gmail address and I got an email in 10 seconds. :)</p>

<p>I feel bad that I didn’t find CC earlier. A classmate actually told me about it the day of my interview, when I was freaking out and looking for something to make me feel better. I read the thread about interviews, and people were talking about how not-scary they really were, and I felt soooo much more confident about myself (not cocky, just not scared out of my wits).</p>

<p>I realized last night that the additional information section of my common app got cut off because I typed it in instead of uploading a document. Made a call to the admissions office who told me to fax it in and gave the name of my regional officer saying to contact her. It’s probably too late but it can’t hurt to try.</p>

<p>^ Don’t worry, I uploaded the wrong document to the common app additional section.</p>

<p>They’re probably laughing themselves silly over my essay about Shakespeare. Sent in a correction though, w/e.</p>

<p>I never realized how insanely talented high schoolers are. Seriously.</p>

<p>Carry on. :)</p>

<p>Watch one day, some high schooler will cure cancer. When they interview him, he’ll have bags under his eyes and like creases on his forehead.</p>

<p>“Why did you do it? Was it because it was there? Family Loss?”</p>

<p>Response: "Well, you see, Yale SCEA comes December 15th… "</p>

<p>. . . xD</p>

<p>^ hahaha I could totally imagine that happening! Not even kidding! :D</p>

<p>^lol, that was pretty funny.
OTOH, <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-2012/429458-official-early-action-decision-thread-3.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-2012/429458-official-early-action-decision-thread-3.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Look at the guy named collegeclass2012. Seriously, if he got deferred, how is anyone gonna get accepted? </p>

<p>Good Luck everyone, I sure hope Yale is more lenient this year.</p>

<p>So, I thought for sure I wasn’t as paranoid/nervous as the other posters on this board for a while…nope, I’m definitely going crazy. I CAN’T WAIT ANY LONGER!</p>
