<p>Pre-decisions anxiety. I think I am going to be rejected.......... or even worse deferred and forced to have false hope for 4 months only to be rejected.............. Float my boat anyone?</p>
<p>definitely me<em>raising my hand up</em>
however i wont be applying until next year(im in my junior year):)</p>
<p>I’m not waiting on Duke results, but Stanford. I’ve literally been having mini anxiety attacks before I go to bed for the past few days. As horrible as it sounds, I think setting myself up for rejection is the most helpful thing I can do right now haha</p>
<p>Picturing myself reading the rejection email makes me a little bit more at ease with the whole situation…as odd as that may sound!</p>
<p>Everyone should expect to get rejected from Duke. Even the best students should not expect to get in, but rather to “have a shot/good shot” to be competitive or to get in. You should just expect to get rejected and if you get in then go nuts!</p>
<p>I’m 50% expecting rejection, 50% expecting deferral.</p>
<p>Prepurm has it right…</p>
<p>International who need FA yeh… that says it all</p>
<p>This may be a bad thing to say…but I’m 65% Accepted 30% Deferred 5% Rejected</p>
<p>Well if were looking at it in the WilliamAndMary way (which I like ;D) I’d say I feel 20% Accepted 35% Deferred and 45% Rejected
So yes, I definitely feel for the most part that I’m going to be rejected UGH.</p>
<p>My daughter said she is hoping for the best but prepared for the worst, just because Duke is so competetive even for people with perfect stats. :/</p>
<p>5% Accept
30% Defer
65% Reject</p>
<p>T_____________T Maybe I should change the “Accept” to .000000000000000000000001%</p>
<p>Duke may send a man to slap me across the face for applying to their school in lieu of an email. I’d bet their thoughtful like that…</p>
<p>That is hilarious lol</p>
<p>Hmmm. 1% Accept
9% Defer
90% Reject</p>
