<p>Morning!</p>
<p>Today is a new, not so sunny, day filled with opportunity.
As I sit in the dungeons of agony, bound to the shackles of uncertainty, I wonder when will I be emancipated from this torture…:o</p>
<p>Lol this is like survivor NYC. Minus the cutthroat contestants</p>
<p>I’m just glad that so far were still in the finals…</p>
<p>With invictvs’ intermittent spurts of lyrical foreshadowing, I’d say this thread is more like a musical drama than a soap. </p>
<p>XX, I see a creative writing minor in your future (at Columbia, obviously).</p>
<p>The final phase constitutes :
walking in the shallow marshes of the unknown as we yearn for enlightenment…</p>
<p>lol @ my dear femme fatale & thx for the faith!
…I do tend to be a bit melodramatic at times O:) , its a way to cope, poke and make fun at my inner fears; the feeling of deception, which I hope wont take any presence…lol :D</p>
<p>countdown continues… 4:45:32 hrs left… who will get an answer today?? (Ta Da…suspense score starts to play*) :D</p>
<p>OMGoodness!!! this week has been more intriguing than any other…!!aghhhh
It’s severly affecting a major proportion of my encephalonentophicIntelligious Majoras and I am not even done with the semester!! I need me brain!! GS grant this child of critical emotional condition an acceptance, my neurons can’t take it anymore :(…ohh the intrigue! </p>
<p>…If patience is a virtue, this process has indeed placed me in the pedestal of the virtuosos 
lol</p>
<p>It seems like a lot of the calls are made towards the end of the day</p>
<p>I noticed, it’s a painful strategy:o</p>
<p>For those of us still in the holding cell, there is still hope left:
We have 2:04:17 hrs left and hopefully a call with a positive msg will reach my telefono before 5:30pm:D
(wishing, wishing, wishing*)</p>
<p>Wooo, phone call!!</p>
<p>I didn’t answer because it was an Unknown Number, was super excited to get the voicemail & call back.</p>
<p>omg congratz! Post Stats plz. And what time did you get the call?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Call at 3:33, managed to reach them again at 3:45.</p>
<p>Terrible high school GPA (<2). Just a few credits short of diploma 2003. Near perfect GED in 2009. 7 completed credits (4.0) at the continuing education branch of a state university, plus 9 in progress. SAT in 2002: 1320.</p>
<p>However in my favor I had lots of professional, impressive work experience. Fantastic recommendations (including a work related rec from a columbia alum w/ PhD). Very good essay (2900 words).</p>
<p>EDIT: I’ve had rejections or deferrals (i.e., rejection until after this semester grades) from almost all the other schools I applied to (one hasn’t gotten back to me yet). There’s hope yet for some of you! :D</p>
<p>Are you on eastern standard time?</p>
<p>Thanks for being honest about your GPA and etc etc. I am very happy for you even though I dont know you, lol.</p>
<p>Which schools did you get rejected from if you dont mind? You can message me if you dont want to mention in the forum. :D</p>
<p>It doesn’t get swankier and more win-win than the Mickey Ds in Silverlake Liz!!! lol (Silverlake is my old stomping ground!)</p>
<p>Yeah Campaigner! Way to go! Like Random said, thanks for your honesty and stats! Calls are a-coming y’all!</p>
<p>Random - PM sent with the schools. Consists of both public and private universities, some in the top 100, some outside. </p>
<p>Yes, eastern time.</p>
<p>Campaigner congrats! Good for you!!</p>
<p>Congrads! At least their making phone calls of some kind! It seems like one a day at most for us on this thread!</p>
<p>I’m still here Liz! Haven’t been around as much, going to community college at the moment and studying up for finals :)</p>
<p>Like to see all those acceptance admissions rolling in, haven’t even seen one rejection yet! I admit I am getting a little nervous, my stuff was ready on March 4th and still no word. 
Keeping my hopes up though, lol we all still have to have those beers!</p>
<p>Theres still WED,THURS, and FRI…</p>
<p>What got on my nerves today was the constant ringing during 4-5pm, uGHh.</p>
