<p>WHY YOU BELIEVE IT TURNED OUT THE WAY IT DID</p>

2

<p>I was unaware that Caltech does interviews...? Is this new or am I that oblivious?</p>

3

<p>The OP probably forgot to edit the text after copying it from another forum. There are no interviews...at least not this year...</p>

4

<p>I can't believe they mailed them out today - that means I get my decision tomorrow...I was relying on getting my MIT decision first!!! This drastically accelerates my praying schedule lol</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone :)</p>

5

<p>anyone know any average mailing times-i.e. how long it took for kids last year located in different parts of the country? think i could get it by friday in NJ?</p>

6

<p>Yeah, I am also interested in how long it takes to hit NJ. And hot damn that was sudden.</p>

7

<p>Good luck everyone!</p>

8

<p>I think it's just regular USPS snail mail - so probably 2-3 days. Saturday probably...</p>

9

<p>woot! if i get accepted, i will only have to apply to stanford for rd.</p>

10

<p>If i get in...I WON't apply to stanford at all :)</p>

11

<p>So, what say we concentrate our passion/anxiousness in a chatroom? CITEA12, if you're interested :)</p>

12

<p>wow this is so exciting! :)
i wonder how long it will take to get to the south.</p>

13

<p>hmm how long will it take for the letter to reach MA?</p>

14

<p>ooh i'm in MA too! i'm expecting it probably not until Saturday, maybe Monday <em>sigh</em>. Friday if we're really lucky though...</p>

15

<p>where in MA? :-)</p>

16

<p>For a second I was scared. I thought somebody got their letter and I didn't. Are rejections and acceptances sent at the same time?</p>

17

<p>I'm not really anxious or excited at all. I guess I'm so confident that I'll get a deferall, I'm not really anxious. I'm just praying that I don't get rejected outright.</p>

18

<p>A part of me hopes it gets lost in the mail.</p>

19

<p>A deferral wouldn't be so bad. I was deferred from my ED school, which I guess is a blessing in disguise because I figured out I didn't wanna go there last week. Still keeping hopes up for the best everywhere :)</p>

20

<p>Heh, good luck everyone :)
A year went by fast....</p>
