ED Applicants - Class of 2015

<p>^Works fine with Firefox for me.</p>

<p>^Interesting xD
Guess I gotta remember to clear my cookies.</p>

<p>^What’s more interesting is that the Duke ED thread is 4 times as long as this one haha.</p>

<p>I did research for 2 summers.
The summer before junior year I did research on this protein in bacteria (I’m being sort of vague just in case someone sees me on here who knows me haha) and applied that info to a homologous protein in humans. Siemens semifinalist with that :smiley:
This summer was a complete flop… did research on DNA repair and never finished my project so no competitions for me :(.</p>

<p>I didn’t even know you could win awards for summer research…congrats. </p>

<p>I did research on the growth pattern of the cerebellum in mice. My research was inconclusive being that it is what my mentor has been studying for years.</p>

<p>That’s cool collegerival :slight_smile: I’ve been doing all biochem research haha I wanna try some physics in college! Apparently I’d need to learn a bit of computer programming for that as well though.</p>

<p>wow guys, I’m impressed by your research. I did nothing as cool or prestigious as that…
it’s so sooooon! Is anyone trying out those weird codes that allow you to access your decision results earlier? I was on yaybrown.com and they had that thing about A0???</p>

<p>What is “A0”?
There are codes?!?</p>

<p>The A0 thing will probably work. But I’ve always envisioned reading the admissions letter to find out, so I think I can last a few more hours until 5PM.</p>

<p>Please explain the A0 thing. Thanks. =)</p>

<p>Haha I have off tomorrow, so it will be a loooooong daaaaaaay :smiley: Yeah, what is “AO”? Looks a trip to the yaybrown forum is needed…</p>

<p>oh my gosh i just had a blonde/amnesia moment. I kept trying to login with the username and passkey they sent me in two e-mails when i had made my own new password to log in with… OH MY… okay i’m good nevermind hahahaha but thanks for the advice everyone/ jayster for the firefox stuff</p>

<p>The A0 thing is a code that would display the message for an accepted candidate (allegedly). </p>

<p>According to the ever so sketchy “yaybrown.com” - it would appear around 7/8 AM tomorrow.
I don’t know. I’m not even going to look for it. I’d rather just wait until 5 PM.</p>

<p>How will you guys pass the time tomorrow before decisions come out?</p>

<p>I will go to school and take a nap when I get home lol. If we have a snow day (which I don’t think we will… it’s been raining all day and it’s not getting any colder) I would have no idea what to do.</p>

<p>I’m free at 11:50 tomorrow (dope schedule, only three classes), so I’ll be at a caf</p>

<p>Robot unicorn attack sounds pretty nice right about now…</p>

<p>So wait where would such a code be displayed?</p>

<p>@billabongboy9828: According to what I’ve gleaned from yaybrown, this is what theoretically happens:</p>

<ol>
<li>On your application summary page there will be a button to click for decisions</li>
<li>Click the button, and do “page view” and “search source.”</li>
<li>Do control + F5, and then seach “AO.” </li>
</ol>

<p>If you see AO, you’re apparently accepted. It has something to do with the system Brown uses, Banner. I don’t know if I trust it, and if my directions are incorrect, I apologize. I’m not well-informed either.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t trust the A0 considering they could easily change to code so that A0 means rejected instead of accepted. Also, adcom would have known about this by know.</p>
