I have my "Rejected" posting ready...

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>No, but I have the “Stanford Rejects” Facebook group bookmarked so I can join immediately after receiving the e-mail.</p>

<p>Saad </p>

<p>you are going to feel really stupid if you get accepted.</p>

<p>^ ohhh what a good idea
A whole facebook group to commiserate with</p>

<p>Chance of that happening for me: p = -.05 (chances of rejection are waayyy too good to be true)</p>

<p>The group on facebook is filled with some real angry people…</p>

<p>No, but it’s a win win see? On the contrary If I get accepted I’ll feel really great. And if not, commiserate!</p>

<p>lol
I’m gonna go check it out
might get a laugh that turns into a cry</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>i don’t even know what that means. thanks for proving to me that i shouldnt have been accepted.</p>

<p>Haha laughs that turn into a cry… Know it all too well.</p>

<p>:) :frowning: :mad:</p>

<p>The bipolarity of college admissions</p>

<p>anyone want to see my rejection posting?
I have it saved to my clipboard and the official decision thread bookmarked so I can hit ctrl+v to display my rejection with speed and ease</p>

<p>(Sidenote: I just realized anyone watching this thread is either curious or severely pessimistic!)</p>

<p>^Welcome to this thread! I’m pretty sure we won’t be winning any awards from the Optimists Club!</p>

<p>Random side note: rb3, how come on this thread and others you have posts only like 4 characters long? Doesn’t CC stop you from posting unless it’s 10 characters minimum?</p>

<p>^^ are we pessimists? or realists?</p>

<p>well, if you say pessimists, then you’re being realistic. although if you say that, some would call you pessimistic for calling yourself a realist for that reason. which is realistic. ad nauseum.</p>

<p>I’m usually an optimist, but with Stanford admissions, the numbers are just too heavily against me.</p>

<p>^I just realized that too! That’s weird. Usually you need to type “10 char” or something like that so that you can post if your post is too short.</p>

<p>

Is it possible to be both? Because sometimes you need to be pessimistic in order to be realistic.</p>

<p>That’s my two cents.</p>

<p>^^^Agreed. The same went through my head.</p>
