<p>It was six in the morning when i wrote that. I meant 12 in the afternoon lol.</p>

123

<p>So I get to wait all day 2maro for Intel verdict. Arrrrggghhhhhh…this is the best torture ever.
And at the end of the day, to see that I did not make it.
Thats awesome right?</p>

124

<p>O, the agony!</p>

<p>Because this is Intel, that “O” was obviously for oxygen.</p>

<p>Aisjoaisjoasijoasj!!! Rumor has it that the local newspaper by us normally leaks the list a few hours before – but how will we find it considering the snow day!? 1PM is too far away!</p>

125

<p>@jeffc418
Yeah heard the same thing about the newspapers. Anyways, good luck guys!</p>

126

<p>4 hours…</p>

127

<p>3 hours…</p>

128

<p>Of all the days for a snow day – why today!? I honestly think I would rather be in Calculus than this form of torture!</p>

129

<p>Lol anyone read this on their website? <a href=“http://www.societyforscience.org/document.doc?id=245[/url]”>http://www.societyforscience.org/document.doc?id=245&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Nothing too interesting though.</p>

130

<p>Haha, I scrutinized that. Had a little sliver of hope that they were feeling generous and decided to post the list early.</p>

<p>2 hours…!</p>

131

<p>Haha! Guys where are we all from here!? Are we all getting the announcement at the same time and will all of our regions be included in it?</p>

132

<p>Lol anyone posting at this time would be from the northeast, methinks</p>

133

<p>Midwest :slight_smile: Getting the announcement same time as the Northeast.</p>

134

<p>Northeast. Its ironic how the eastern and central time zones will be the first to receive the results but were the main ones complaining about the wait. Things would have been a lot easier if we had class this morning.</p>

135

<p>So the results are up. I didnt make it. Good luck to everyone else.</p>

136

<p>Just got the good news! Congrats to all the other semifinalists</p>

137

<p>I did not make the cut. I was a SF in Siemens. Not very happy. I had a good cancer research paper based on my NIH research. What more they want? Grrrrrrrrr</p>

138

<p>do they send out a “thanks for trying” letter?</p>

139

<p>Made SF (didn’t get anything in Siemens). Congrats to those who made it and good luck to those who find out in a couple hours.</p>

140

<p>nope congrats to all who made sf</p>
