International RD thread...

<p><strong>i know its a bit early</strong></p>

<p>Would this count for those who applied to schools with rolling admissions?</p>

<p>And, very cute reason to start this thread, ronty. I just hope it won't diverge too much from its purpose. :D</p>

<p>yes,its for all those not covered under the ED/EA scheme...
It will be on topic...but some random talk is always welcome...</p>

<p>OMG OMG OMG I GOT INTO PRINCETON !#$@#^@%$^#&%@!!!!!!!!! OMG IM SO HAPPY!!!</p>

<p>gotcha thinking there, eh? lol I'm just really tense. Trying to think positive here :p</p>

<p>Man... I really believed at first sight that u got in at ur Dream School... I wish u all the best! :)</p>

<p>thanks my desi bro ;) Hope you do well in the RD round :) </p>

<p>I bet as soon as this thread pops up, people will think "WHOA...he got into PRINCETON. wow!" :p They just gotta scroll down a bit to see the harsh reality lol.</p>

<p>thanks...and yes, the reaction will be the same from all the viewers... ;)
u r smart...</p>

<p>lol if having this talent could be a hook for getting into Princeton, life would be great :p <em>living in fool's paradise</em></p>

<p>btw, u r originally from which Indian State? I m from Bihar</p>

<p>By dad's from Bombay and my mom's from Madras, but originally a few generations back, from Varanasi i think. Bihar...hm you might be knowing Prashant (mercurysquad). He was a pretty cool guy, a CCer from Patna. He's at IUB and applying as a transfer to MIT...hope he gets in. Poor guy had a rough time last year with admissions...deserved to get in, but that stupid goddamn SAT was his only drawback. Same as mine :p</p>

<p>yes, i know Prashant very well... He guides a lot regarding the app process... he is a Good Person :)</p>

<p>yeah. He managed to got from a 650 to an 800 in math IIC. Lucky him :)</p>

<p>The funny thing is that Im really not too optimistic at all about US admissions. I had lower end scores last year - in the 2nd 25% say at cornell for comparitive purposes, and ended up getting rejected at EVERY school I applied to in the states (Cornell, D'mouth, Princeton, Duke, and what came as a big shocker, even GAtech) Goddamnit i even had legacy at GAtech and my scores were in the top 25%. I really think the admissions system there is so unpredictable.</p>

<p><em>clears throat</em> callthecops, I was wondering why you would post it in the International RD board of all places and not in the ED board. </p>

<p>All the best for the next few days awaiting the decision!</p>

<p>Thanks Izzy. Is there an International ED Results Thread? As far as I know, there's only an int'l EA/ED thread which is darn full! <em>scratches head</em> well anyway, in my mood swings with respect to my ED decision, I overlooked the RD bit in the thread's title. Anyway...I'v flown back into pessimissm mode. It's crazy...this whole process is driving me nuts.</p>

<p>I think...martin made one? It may be on the 2nd page of this forum...</p>

<p>Callthecops, we both r GAPPERS...</p>
