<p>You rich white males.<br>
I’ll give you Tufts, UPenn, Brandeis, Cornell. I’m not familiar with the others.
And, let me guess, Harvard rejected you? <- I’m jaded. But it’s a joke. Only not really.</p>

3

<p>In at all but Penn?</p>

4

<p>Hint: The answers made me hate humanity a tad. Oh well (: I’m content.</p>

<p>PS: Neither of you are right yet.</p>

5

<p>Rejected by all the Ivy League schools?</p>

6

<p>Rejected by all schools for being involved in a Harry Potter club. Accepted by Hogwarts.</p>

7

<p>I wish.</p>

<p>I’ll let people know the actual results in a day or two.</p>

8

<p>^classic
Tsen Char.</p>

<p>Edit: meant to be to nayapapaya</p>

9

<p>I wish this “Tsen Char” reference wasn’t lost on me.
My SAT’s have already filled my daily “inadequacy” quota. Boo.
I’m going to stop spamming this thread, sorry!</p>

10

<p>I love these threads. But when you post your results, I’d also be curious to know where you’re attending.</p>

11

<p>I really Want to find out where you got in. Rejected from all ivies except Cornell. Got into uchicago aka “hogwarts”</p>

12

<p>Bumping this back up – and for the record, I am attending WUSTL in the fall (it’s on my CC profile and that’s why I said it was a given at the beginning :P)</p>

<p>Keep on guessing, folks.</p>

13

<p>My predictions:</p>

<p>Case Western Reserve -Accepted w/ with Some Merit $$
Umass Amherst - Accepted
uMichigan Ann Arbor - Accepted
uWisconsin Madison - Accepted
Worcester Poly - Accepted w/ Merit Scholarship
Rensselaer Poly - Accepted
uPenn - Rejected
Chicago - Waitlisted
Carnegie Mellon - Accepted
Brandeis - Accepted
Tufts - Accepted
Harvard (double legacy) - Waitlisted
Cornell - Accepted</p>

14

<p>My guess: in at all but harvard (waitlist) and upenn&chicago (rejected).</p>

15

<p>Case Western Reserve Uni- Accepted
Umass Amherst- Accepted
uMichigan Ann Arbor- Waitlisted
uWisconsin Madison- Accepted
Worcester Poly- Accepted
Rensselaer Poly- Accepted
uPenn- Rejected
WUSTL- Accepted
Chicago- Rejected
Carnegie Mellon- Accepted
Brandeis- Accepted
Tufts- Waitlisted
Harvard (double legacy)- Waitlisted
Cornell- Rejected</p>

<p>If you didn’t get in to U Mich I’d be beyond shocked. From what I know of kids here in Midwest but OOS , if you can pay full freight as my daughter’s friends said “Idiots are getting in.” I personally know 3 kids with ACT’s under 30 who were not in the top 10 percent (probably in top 25 percent) who got in.</p>

18

<p>Hey, you never told us your GPA!</p>

<p>Besides that, most of your stats look good. I’m guessing GPA, AP scores, courseload, or something combination thereof were why you got so many rejections ( <— speculative, guessing that because you said the results made you “hate humanity a tad”)</p>

<p>Can you give us more comprehensive info of that sort?</p>

19

<p>so what are the results?</p>

<p>He said that his rank was top 11% which is not a great rank for the top schools.</p>
