<p>Okay, the past month (in terms of Duke decisions) wasn't too bad, but these past few days since I found out Duke would release decisions on Thursday have been excruciating (ANYONE ELSE GET THIS FINAL JEOPARDY ON SATURDAY NIGHT?! I WAS SO PSYCHED THAT I ACTUALLY GOT A FINAL JEOPARDY!).
So anyway, the next four days are going to be... painful, to say the least.</p>
<p>no haha i did not apply to yale - it didn't appeal to me :p</p>
<p>duke is my 1st choice school by a ton. i prolly shouldnt have got my heart set on one school, but i just think it's perfect for me. unfortunately it is def a reach school esp considering the 17% applicant increase. aghhhh, i hate waiting!!
good luck everyone!</p>
<p>im nervous too! although i probably won't get in. good luck to everyone!</p>
<p>After failing epically at getting a likely letter (read: I didn't), I lost a decent amount of hope in my chances...</p>
<p>most people accepted don't get likely letters. you still have a chance!</p>
<p>don't give up hope!</p>
<p>I'm getting so nervous cause I didn't even get into Florida for Fall (just spring). I don't expect to get in but it would still be amazing lol</p>
<p>I'm actually kind of calm about this. I'm just happy that I've been admitted to a good school and I have been blessed with the finances to go there. Yeah, it's still kind of scary that the decisions are looming and my future plans could be altered just like that, but I think I'll be okay.</p>
<p>I think everyone will be okay. All of us have worked hard and I'm pretty sure all of you have something amazing about you. If some of us aren't feeling the love from Duke, it'll be all right. But until we know for sure, we can always hope.</p>
<p>I just got accepted to a school on the same tier as Duke, except with a very nice amount of merit aid...while of course I still want to go to Duke, it makes me feel better that at least I have a very good second option.</p>
<p>...but I'm still freaking out about Thursday
haha</p>
<p>which school?</p>
<p>screw you all. d*ke blows.</p>
<p>UMD kick's d<em>ke's a</em>*. </p>
<p>lol.</p>
<p><em>note: d</em>ke is an unholy word which I shall not for the life of me utter.</p>
<p>alright, so now, i'm considering waiting to get the letter in the mail. for some reason, i feel like i'd prefer to get my rejection through a tangible letter instead of online; i don't know why. we'll see though- i don't know if i'll be able to wait.</p>
