Any new results people ??
accepted to UW Madison for CS!
and i have confirmed the enrollment 
Congrats!
are you guys appearing for jee mains ?
@Indijat Your verbosity is a bit annoying but you are decent enough to apologise and I respect that. And as you have mentioned in the aforementioned apology, many individuals here harboured nothing but negativity and/or disdain towards you after the Berkeley revelation that day and that does justice to why college confidential is called toxic website. I explicitly forbade my brother from using this website, because most people here are at the end of the day, only determined to boast about their profiles and satisfy their fragile egos. And we always try to bring each other down here instead of boosting one another’s spirits. And that’s nothing short of tragic.
@rahuilmars231 I agree and I am even more sorry after what you have written. I didn’t realize that the berkeley thing wasn’t anything funny. I didn’t realize that many people carry high hopes as they surf the college confidential and frame their mentality accordingly. I’m sorry for all the people who spend their time at college confidential and see the supposedly HONEST results here. SORRY…
However, you don’t need to care about my vocabulary brother. do you? And bro, as I already told, I am not here to boast as nobody knows anything about me!! Nor can you write anything about my ego unless you have that FRAGILE ego urself and therefore, scrutinize mine as same.
Again, I didn’t at all, try to bring anybody down. I myself am a tenderfoot trying to do my best and I ain’t better than anybody here…
@Indijat I don’t think you need to apologize. Just drop the matter. To be sure when I started reading this thread I was surprised at everybody hounding you but I have to admit i am really confused regarding your motives. Why would you lie on an ANONYMOUS college discussion forum. It makes my observation that all people are essentially honest useless. maybe anonymity brings out the worst in us. I’m not trying to be mean or anything, just trying to understand…
@Indijat Wow man you’re such an idiot.
I was not lambasting you. The above para was a passive aggressive rant about the people who criticized you when you claimed to have gotten into Berkeley. I was criticizing them and the others who consistently bring others down just so that they can wield some sort of nonexistent power or have the upper hand.
Even if you’d actually gotten into Berkeley, you still would’ve have been been judged and taunted ruthlessly, such is the nature of college confidential and the infantile idiots that swarm this website.
So take a chill pill. But I don’t see what you could possibly accomplish by lying here. So shed your insecurities and be happy.
Got accepted to Stanford!! But not likely to attend following their not so good FinAid Awards… Amherst too does not meet 100% demonstrated need as it boasts on it’s website… Happy for acceptance but at the same time in sadness for poor FinAid from these Universities. Feels like my tashrif is on fire… sigh
Hey guys…
Confused between Columbia (John Jay Scholar) and UChicago for economics-math. I am also considering Upenn (Benjamin Franklin Scholar). What would you guys recommend?
@rahuilmars231 Whenever I try to get pacific, there are brats trying to become adults, who with nonsensical bragging, provoke me into continuing my run and then the apologetic run! They feel blessed with some ‘non-existent’ power. Not intended at you brother, it is just a ‘PASSIVE’ diatribe against some people here.
And let me tell you bro: as is my disposition, nobody, not at least anybody here; can make me feel insecure. I am here to apologize for people like me, when for the first time, I opened this site with credence. So you better take a chill pill brother. I fear nothing. But I respect everything.
Again, your claim made a bigger idiot of you.
And I don’t see what you are accomplishing by trying to show yourself as a pundit. Keep your rants and your aggression limited to your brother. It’s just a benevolent advice from me coz’ you don’t want me to deprive you of your college confidential facilitation because of further clownish bragging of yours.
@Indijat I’m no pundit, just observant. (and I’m also someone who’s been discouraged a lot by certain people on this website) But all i can humbly say to you is, GET A LIFE. You are too dumb to detect when someone is defending you and you are not smart enough to decipher a person’s intentions behind their words. Most of your words lack logic and the way you go ballistic on others when u are even remotely challenged speaks of your insecurities.
End of rant. Bye Bye. All the best with your life.
@intellectboy Man that is awesome 
Congrats! In my opinion though, taking out loans for a place as amazing as stanford is completely worth it. I really hope you work something out with the adcoms and choose stanford because you’ve obviously worked immensely hard for it and a lot of people would kill to be in your position right now.
@Ambitious27 congrats, those certainly are enviable choices. I would definitely choose Uchicago if I were you.
@rahuilmars231 Chicago is the place for econ, I know! But frankly, it’s difficult to let go of the ivy brand name
@rahuilmars231 LOL that guy is funny! It’s like you’re helping an old lady cross the road but she thinks you’re trying to rob her.
@Ambitious27 Congrats buddy! You’ve certainly got some amazing options. I get that ivy prestige part. It can get incredibly hard especially for us indians. But you’ve gotta remember that fit and program quality is more important than how audibly people react to where you got accepted. You should choose whatever feels right and makes you happy even if it isn’t as ‘prestigious’. Having said that I don’t think you could go wrong wherever you choose to go
@rahuilmars231 The Stanford FinAid is way too low (will burn around 25 Lacs cash every year) and moreover I do not think my family will be granted such massive loan. Will speak to Adcoms after 5 April.
Guys help me out here
I have been accepted to
UWash Seattle
Wisconsin Madison and
Purdue
My intended major is Computer Science
I have an inclination towards UWash but the problem is that the department is so small that the counselor sent a mail saying that it’s very tough to get into CS and I should be mentally prepared in case I don’t get CS. For the first year every student (barring a few residents) everyone gets a general degree and they have to apply to the CS department later.
And I don’t have a very in-depth research on the universities so any inputs from your side would be very helpful
Thanks
@KjInternational CS Department wise UWash>Wisconsin>Purdue. So you’ll have to take into consideration whether to gamble on getting into the CS Department at UWash after a year. It’s a clear choice between UW Madison and UWash imo.
