50 hours left...How are you feeling?

<p>My Johns Hopkins decision could be out in 5 minutes!!!!</p>

<p>Fingers crossed for ya!</p>

<p>1 day and 5 minutes until I get three rejections! Woohoo!</p>

<p>You should chill people, there are really worse things that can happen in your life than getting a rejection. Like getting rejected from the school where your girlfriend, which you have loved more than anything for your past 5 years, will be attending. And then getting in for next year, feeling like on top of the world, only to be dumped by her 2 months before getting back together.
Ya, so..you're gonna cry if you don't get in? Well, I really wouldn't want you to be in my shoes then :)</p>

<p>Don't mind me, I'm just really depressed :) Just thought I'd make myself useful and make people feel better by use of comparison.</p>

<p>negru: ouch. and touch?. lesson learnt? do your own thing! like eating ice cream. this seems to be my answer for everything. such a simple-minded creature i am. preferably chocolate chip mint.</p>

<p>11 hours to go!</p>

<p>I feel terrible, there's this weird feeling like you are drowning or something.. and I have reasons:
Rejected at Duke
Rejected at Smith
Waitlisted at Barnard and Wellesley
so no acceptances so far ....what am I going to do?????US colleges hate me....and I flew over to Hong Kong to take my SATs and self-studied for them.....and now this....I can't help feeling depressed</p>

<p>I had about 3 or 4 dreams last night about this decision. It is driving me crazy.</p>

<p>I got rejected from Hopkins :( , I don't know how much hope that gives me for Brown...</p>

<p>AHHHHHHH! We have just under 10 hours to go children! I swear to God this is one of the most exciting days of my life :D :D :D :D , in or not. It'll still be fun to see that Brown acknowledged my existence for a moment or two.</p>

<p>Meh. I understand how you guys feel. Got rejected from Vassar. Admittedly though, the competition for Vassar this year was fierce. And every school is different. We can still hope!</p>

<p>i like your enthusiasm but ivy's have fiercer competition....</p>

<p>I guess this is the day of our lives, at least so far. I'm gonna have a nervous breakdown tonight</p>

<p>lol this year Vassar's acceptance rate was like 10% so it's not too different. And, decisions are so subjective that you never know! look at all the people who get into Harvard but not MIT or in Brown but not Dartmouth. You never know :) Come on people, have some hope! Either way though, we'll be happy wherever we go (I should try taking my own advice lol).</p>

<p>wow! 10%??? i had no idea
i'll take your advice and be happy for a while :)</p>

<p>Fandangoya, i'm in the same boat as you. got rejected at jhu this morning :( and ever since then, i've doubted my ability to get into an ivy b/c i figure, if i can't get into a school with a 30% acceptance rate, how will i EVER make it into an ivy. how upsetting. but seriously, keep your chin up. we're in it together. miracles can happen, just stay strong and have faith! believe in yourself.</p>

<p>oh hi babycakes...see we are applying to the same school...and yeah i got rejected as well frm JHU...the misery...</p>

<p>wow so we really ARE all in it together. did you guys apply to jhu as matches too?</p>

<p>yesssss!! okay screw princeton review for crying out loud!! they listed JHU as the perfect match EVERYTIME!
okay im overreacting...i dint really bet on that website all that much...im just a teensy bit bitter. what about you?</p>

<p>i'll pm you.</p>

<p>babycakes, that is EXACTLY what I thought after I got rejected from Wellesley and waitlisted at Barnard, but more than one person told me that its all about colleges finding a fit....so hoping with all my might for us all.</p>

<p>Of course, with just a few hours to go, I'm having a nervous breakdown right now.</p>

<p>you know someone should start a thread "rejected from JHU hopin for ivy" alot of us can get together</p>
