<p>Just putting this question out there, has it just kind of washed over some people that you know if I get in great, if I don't I'll just do my best somewhere else.
I am sure some people have had this attitude for a while but for the rest of us who have been hyperventilating about decisions, its finally starting to sink in that it won't be the end of the world?</p>
<p>Or am I the only one?:(</p>
<p>You aren't the only one; I decided I felt that way ~ 2 weeks ago.... At this point, there is nothing we can do about the decisions anyways.... We'll all end up someplace awesome, be it MIT or somewhere else.</p>
<p>you're not the only one. i mean applying to college is stressful and all, but i got into 2 of my safeties and one of my likelies so honestly i realized even my safeties are great schools and i would have great opportunities at them too. i mean i would love to go to MIT, but (not to be offensive AT ALL) honestly i feel like someone who freaks out about getting into MIT isn't really meant for it. so yea...</p>
<p>good point benandjerrys!</p>
<p>i am in the same exact situation as benandjerrys. amen.</p>
<p>I'm just worried because I'm international and need aid, and there's therefore a very good chance that I won't be accepted anywhere I applied. Which is really terribly tough, and something of an excuse for freaking out a bit. ;) But as long as I make it somewhere, I won't be slitting my wrists over an MIT rejection -- I love the school, I want to attend, but if I don't get in I don't get in, and it's that simple. My worries about MIT are more an extension of my general 'will I go anywhere next year?' worry than anything very specific.</p>
<p>@Noldo: slitting wrists, a geek should think of better ways, like deleting homepage and creating a new homepage sort of thing........ LOL</p>
<p>'slitting' off the html tags in your homepage? just a suggestion :-)</p>
<p>writing lots of c++ code intentionally, and using no data structure other than constructors and destructors............</p>
