<p>ok scared me. Well if it matters 12:26 - Engineering - undecided - no idea. Hopefully maybe.</p>
<p>hold on....I believe I have figured out a way to figure this out. If we have three groups of times...then all we have to do to figure out which is waitlist/acceptance/rejection is see which group of numbers took the most time to input....obviously the similar group with the largest span of times would be rejections(because the large volume of rejections would take a long time to upload). Likewise we can use this same tactic to see which group is waitlisted and which is accepted. </p>
<p>The only problem is I dont know what there are more of...acceptances or waitlists?</p>
<p>more acceptances than wl</p>
<p>Yeah thats a decent plan but you need to figure, the people who come here and post on CC are generally for the most part the overachivers. So if we are looking for the 14% group of acceptance or whatever Cornell generally does, we might see....36% on this site.</p>
<p>which also means that more will be WL and less will be rejected scewing the entire ratio to a degree we have no idea and therefore i dont think can accurately conclude upon</p>
<p>@ sylenteck0: Thank you? Haha :)</p>
<p>If I got into cornell it would definately heal up the Carnegie Mellon bood-fest that I was just a victim of o.o</p>
<p>but remember...were not looking at the number of times....but the range of each time period.....that factors out the skewed ratio of cc.</p>
<p>12:24 - CAS - Chemistry and Chemical Biology - maybe/likely?
12:24 - CAS - Asian Studies - maybe/likely?
12:26 - CAS - Computer Science - No likely letter, maybe, i have a lot of computer EC but who knows??
12:26 - CAS/Eng - Computer Science - No likely letter, but hopeful.
12:26 - CAS - Government/ Econ - No likely letter, maybe.
12:33 - CAS - Biology - Maybe??
1:05 - CALS - Communications - Originally deferred, not likely
1:05 - CAS - Chemistry and Chemical Biology - maybe... idk
1:54 -CHE- Policy Analysis and Management-maybe/unlikely
2:04 - CAS - Computer Science - maybe likely.. could go either way really =/ this year's college admissions are really unusual so I don't want to have too high of hopes
2:34- CAS- Meteorology- VERY Unlikely
2:44 - CAS - Philosophy - Unlikely</p>
<p>so then the smallest time period would end up being the waitlisteds...the middle time period would be acceptances and the longest would be rejecteds...i think this works......</p>
<p>could the accepts go 12ish and into 1? and then maybe the rejections go on past 2:44... cc people who do get rejected might be some of the last people to get rejected compared to the entire pool, thus no later times?</p>
<p>I really do think it's random. The biggest group (I think) is the 12:26ers and those seem to be more confident.</p>
<p>You guys look wayyy too into this.</p>
<p>Give us a break, it's not like there's much else to do here :P</p>
<p>This thread is making me depressed now. I was really excited before because people kept saying my time (in the 1pm range) was the accepted group but i think its really random. I said I was maybe/unlikely in the list but after reading ED threads, my stats don't compare to the accepted people.
It's like fake hope meets reality.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm telling myself I'll look back and laugh at the silliness but in all honesty I'll probably just groan at how overwrought this whole process is.</p>
<p>haha. i know. I really hate college admissions. and i know this is neurotic(my gf saw the thread and couldn't stop laughing) but it is something to pass the time...and i think of it as a giant puzzle to solve. so...just have fun with it(if anything involved with admissions can be fun).</p>
<p>every next post has verified/supported what we determined on page 5 or so, the waitlist - accept - reject theory. that's a good thing, if you're in the middle, at least. if anybody else got a likely letter, please post!
it's nice to have a conspiracy theory that doesn't summon great anger and chaos from every side, unlike the carnegie mellon fiasco some of us just went through.</p>
<p>How has it verified anything? My friend got a likely letter and her time was 2:44 PM. The only people who have gotten such letters (or shown them to us anyway) are Engineering majors.</p>
<p>Not only that, but if you go by the sample we have (which is clearly not enough)</p>
<p>The waitlist would nearly double the admitted....which makes no sense.</p>
<p>If we get a few more CAS times, I think we can make an accurate conclusion. I'd like to see what the range of the 1:05 group is.(minute wise)</p>
