<p>More like the longest part. Hard part is over…</p>
<p>i wish that you could find out if you got in as soon as you submitted the app. waiting is the hardest AND longest part!!! </p>
<p>plus, if i don’t get it, i’ll feel more motivated to work on my other apps :P</p>
<p>^amen. I’m just not feeling the urge to work on my other apps right now, haha</p>
<p>We’re halfway there, guys!</p>
<p>Wooooooooooo</p>
<p>I submitted a November SAT II score, so I guess they aren’t supposed to have gotten my scores yet? I guess I’ll call on Monday.</p>
<p>I’m so incredibly scared though. The rest of November is going to go by really quickly. I just hope I’m here and not in England for an interview when decisions come out.</p>
<p>how much does Siemens semi-finalist sway their decision?</p>
<p>i would have to go with some, nwood. somewhat.</p>
<p>baha, i have no idea. i just think it’s funny you’re asking that here instead of celebrating that your MIT EA app is done!!</p>
<p>i’m suprised by how quickly this month is going by. i’m really glad it’s so quick though, or i’d be worrying constantly. my school’s football team has a really good chance of making state this year, which has kept me sufficiently distracted :P</p>
<p>Is anyone else going through a “i cant get in” phase of sadness? grrr… and we still have like a month left of agony…</p>
<p>Anyone have any idea what the MIT acceptance letters look like?</p>
<p>its a tube, google the blogs and youll see a pic of it</p>
<p>yeah, I’m going through the “I cant get in phase”</p>
<p>thats why I was asking, haha</p>
<p>I’m glad the app is over, I started working on it the day it came out,and turned it in the night before. I have about 20 different essays I wrote at some point on my computer for the app… that means there were like 15 I didn’t deem good enough, lol.</p>
<p>^ never reached that phase. I’m still uber diluted into thinking that there’s no way that I can be rejected because I’m by far the smartest kid in my school.</p>
<p>Yeah, I was like that too Buddy… then I went onto College Confidential again.</p>
<p>aww, i’m not meaning to bring you down, nwoodward. i’m feeling the same way - really insecure about this whole process. i just figure if we all try not to obsess and just try to enjoy our last year of high school, then it’ll make this whole process a lot easier!!</p>
<p>The thing is though, I think all the cards are in my favor. My SAT’s and SAT2s are great, plus I have an amazing LOR from the head of the Chem. Eng. Department of a top 60 Engineering Uni. </p>
<p>Basically, what I’m saying is that, were I an admissions officer, I would definitely accept me… and I think I’m the MIT type, so that means by the transitive property that they would definitely accept me too… right?</p>
<p>It’s not you guys, you’re all on the same boat as me. This is the only place to “compare” yourself to others around the country at all, and reading everyone’s denial stats are really depressing, lol.</p>
<p>I can’t tell if Buddy is ■■■■■■■■, or just really confident…</p>
<p>I started grad-level math courses at the local University this semester, I feel like I have a lot in my favor as well… Just saying CC is a great place to read about others failures and get discouraged</p>
<p>no, I’m def not trollin’. I’m just pretty confident.</p>
<p>It’s just my way, maybe I should be more scared, but really, now it’s out of my hands, so there’s no real point in being worried.</p>
<p>Yeah well we all have small sharp tools in our application meant to stab our competitors to death… We are all really qualified ppl… especially this year… I know what you mean… but you just have to look back and just panic… there are too many of us… the competition isn’t in this forum, this is only a thin slice of the stats that are out there so instead of boasting your stats, bond as a community.</p>
<p>Plus MIT is notorious for its tendancy to take interesting applicants over good stats and confidence… Welcome to the lottery my friends!</p>
