@xfewds deadass youre 10 times better than me bruh youre getting that W

goddam i feel so unintelligent in this thread lol

@xfewds I donā€™t mean to interject, but is saw ur comment at 9:48 just now, is it really being lit to call yourself lit? also they took down all of his comments so I have no idea what he said

@volatileknight wow, sorry to hear that! did your teacher download her rec via Naviance or directly to Common App? Was the ā€œevaluation/referenceā€ checked on your app status portal?

@Camchar88 It was checked on the portal and my naviance but not on commonapp, which is why I never noticed. But when I called them they told me itā€™s probably because they didnā€™t notice that one of my two recs that I had requested was an employer rec and not a teacher rec. So they got 1 teacher rec and 1 employer rec (optional) but they thought it was 2 teacher recs, so they didnā€™t notify me. I got it sent in by email on the 1st of december and cornell confirmed it had been forwarded to review. I know this rec was particularly good, but I donā€™t know if it made a difference since it went in so late.

@helpasap123 hurgh same all I did over the summer was go to band camp for one (1) week in Ohio

i have a physics HL exam 3 hours after my decision comes out but i literally cannot bring myself to study for it the excitement/anxiety is all too real

@David124 my nibba the litest thing u can do is call urself lit. So go ahead and call yourself lit right now

@ AvixeoN ah yes IB physics HL ā€¦ brings back fond memories. Favourite chapters by far electromagnetism and waves, so much that I practically skipped them during the finals

@xfewds *[ B ][ B ]

I have an AP Gov final and I am too anxious to study for it. Iā€™m really hoping I get in. Apart from getting into my fave school, itā€™s 1000 bucks and many hours saved on my other apps.

@elpollodiablo lmao tell me about it, taking phys chem math HL itā€™s quite the task ā€“ is this what colleges mean when they say they appreciate rigorous curriculums? because i really hope so

@AvixeoN HL Chem and HL Bio just murders bro

Brown said they thought IB is the most challenging curriculum, and it is widely known that Physics, Maths and Chemistry HL are very difficult (we called them the Asian triad, most teachers advised against taking those 3 together).

@xfewds i can sympathize lol, science IAs really murdering me too

@AvixeoN I met the dean of admissions for my college and handed him my resume, and when he saw that I had two HL sciences he said it was really good so yes I think they realize the difficulty of those classes

@xfewds man same HL BIO and CHEMā€¦ i always had these tests on the same day

@xfewds @elpollodiablo okay that actually makes me so happy to hear because im getting 777 in my HLs

IB Cornell Accept Rate (RD) in 2017 is probs around 25-30% considering it was 50% in 2010
