<p>The stress I building up, along with a ton of school work resulting from 4 AP class and bunch of extracurricular, sports, and service duties.
Who else is procrastinating on their early decision application? Let me know I'm not alone. I'm applying ED to Cornell btw.
My parents finished my financial aid app and sent it already. We did the CSS Profile together. One of my teachers has sent my recommendation already. I have to nag my other teacher and my guidance counselor to hurry up with theirs. I havent started my common app and supplement. I finished my main essay and I'm merely sitting on it and making tweaks to it. I'm about half way done and barely started on my short answer and supplement essay respectively. Next weekend I have all 3 days filled with stuff to do outside of homework and college stuff. I'm barely getting 5 hours sleep every school night just with homework (our school's elite classes are INSANE). I'm just getting so stressed out.
I made up my mind, I HAVE to send out my common app and supplement THIS WEEK! One of these days, I'll just pull an all-nighter and finish this bs. I don't want to do it right on the deadline cuz it might make the wrong impression. Who else hasn't sent out their ED application yet? And when are you planning to do so? Does anyone else sympathize with my stress? Now I'm rambling, this is what happens when you're sleep-deprived.</p>
<p>i know exactly how you feel. I have 3 AP classes, a varsity sport, and a part time job. I never understood it when people said that they wished ther ewere more hours in a day until this year; and on top of all of it i have to do my college apps. I hate how high powered students take the most rigorous courseloads AND have to do the most in depth college apps. I kno kids who take all parallel courses and are applying to soem low powered State schoosl that have nothing to do! Last week i ended up takign a day off of school in order to send out my ED Wharton app - i woudl recommend doing that if you think you can miss a day of classes. Also, learn to love espresso :)</p>
<p>i'm in the same position, except ed to JHU.</p>
<p>i haven't even started my essays. i'm going to do them after i get my new sat results. but this week i'm going to tell them to send everything in immediately.</p>
