Harvard Decisions Soon :0 !!!!

Colleges & Universities A-Z Harvard University

<p>I’m not the only person getting butterflies when I get the mail!!! The funniest things have popped into my head, like “OMG, is this a rejection letter???” (which it wasn’t; nor was it a likely) when the end of March isn’t even here yet.</p>

<p>This is the most agonizing month of my life. Brace yourselves, I’m about to use a very bad analogy:</p>

<p>Waiting for college admissions decisions is like going through psychological childbirth. The pain and tension of both actual and mental/emotional labor is comparable. </p>

<p>Now now, don’t accuse me of “epically failing”. Just be aware that going Ivy for me has seriously impacted my judgment, more effectively than how alcohol impacts a driver. (Haha, I just took my 5-hour pre-licensing.)</p>

<p>All of this nonsense reminds me: After this birth is over, we should make a list entitled, “Ivy League Applicants Say the Darndest Things”. I’ll be your host!</p>

<ol>
<li>You have recurring dreams of being rejected from X Ivy school. </li>
<li><p>Always, I’m a pessimist</p></li>
<li><p>You got a 28 on your last Calc test because you decided hovering around chance threads would be more beneficial than studying.</p></li>
<li><p>Actually, a 33% but close enough.</p></li>
<li><p>You curse the ancestors of the freakish people who get 2400s (congratulations to those of you that pulled that off)</p></li>
<li><p>Of course.</p></li>
<li><p>You cyberstalk people with similar stats to yours who were <em>gasp</em> accepted.</p></li>
<li><p>Yes, to give myself false hope.</p></li>
<li><p>You have IOPMSD (Ivy Optimism-Pessimism Mood Swing Disorder).</p></li>
<li><p>:( :slight_smile: :frowning: :slight_smile: :cry: :smiley: D:</p></li>
<li><p>You don’t care about any date after April 1st.</p></li>
<li><p>Not at all.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Oh darn, that’s 6/10.</p>

<p>brilliant thread…</p>

<p>i am right on the brink with ya! may the gods have mercy on our souls.</p>

24

<p>If you got a 2400…</p>

<p>…I resent you. :|</p>

25

<p>You’re probably more likely to be denied with a 2400 than a 2390…</p>

<p>maybe.</p>

26

<p>I love this thread.
I have a really, really severe case of IOPMSD.</p>

<p>… and I won’t know what to do with myself after April 1.</p>

27

<p>I could only imagine the happy version of post-4/1 days. Cannot bear thinking any other way, especially not now. :slight_smile:
I am really too addicted to CC…but I can’t help it.</p>
