<p>Damn it, my cover was blown.</p>
<p>Your location kind of gives it away...</p>
<p>just a bit?</p>
<p>Curious, what are the sizes of the Caltech envelopes? Can I expect to receive my decision by Wednesday on the east coast?</p>

<p>Just got deferred from MIT :(</p>
<p><em>sigh</em> I'm slowly coming to realization that I completely screwed up my application...ooow....it will really suck when I get my rejection letter in a couple of days. I guess that means we are not allowed to apply RD, correct?</p>
<p>Don't worry about it, Hriundeli...how did you completely screw up your application? I remember when I was doing this stuff this time last year, and I was all "Oh no! I totally messed up everything and am going to fail at life and stuff." But it turned out okay in the end - and whatever happens, it always will. </p>
<p>Hehe, I know this is impossible advice to take, but don't freak out over anything and stay calm :D I'm sure everything will be fine.</p>

<p>another member of deferred by MIT club. maybe mentioning to my mit interview alumni that i am also doing at EA at caltech was a bad idea. guess i should have showed more commitment...
caltech seems to value transcripts and sat scores more right? i hope 2250 is enough...
btw, anyone have data on class of 2010 EA for caltech, i only found a really brief post on CC</p>

<p>I just got deferred from MIT too....</p>
<p>if Caltech accepts me I'll love them forever and always hate on MIT...I promise....please....</p>
<p>they say Caltech and MIT is almost a 1:1 acceptance ratio for students that get into one of them.</p>

<p>Kamikazewave: I actually know quite a few people that got into one but not the other. But chances are your probability if you get into one, to get into the other are definetely higher.</p>
<p>I could have sworn that there was already a Caltech EA roster thread</p>

<p>Eep, got into the other institute of technology early...what to do now, what to do....</p>
<p>I wish you all luck, regardless of how you did with MIT. If you get into a bunch of great schools (as many of you will) trust me that you'll have a very tough choice. No matter what you do, you'll end up turning down some absolutely top-notch places... but worry about that later.</p>
<p>Getting into Caltech made that choice a lot simpler for me :)</p>
