<p>I LOVE Cornell and I know that my chances are slim to none. I've imagined myself being rejected several times but I really didn't feel anything special. I know that I want this more than anything right now since I've been having dreams about Cornell every night for the past few nights now. Like last night, I dreamed that I was accepted and I even pinched myself in my dream to make sure. I felt the pain and thought it was real. But oh well. My main is question how will I react to my rejection? I don't feel anything right now even pretending to be rejected. I have no idea what to expect but I hope it won't be too bad because I have to my ACTs this Saturday. Any thoughts?</p>
<p>prepare for the worst.</p>
<p>wow it’s like we’re the same person or something…all i can think about is cornell 24/7
i also signed up for the ACTs this saturday as a backup to boost up my scores a little if i don’t get into cornell
but right now, that sounds like such a terrible alternative </p>
<p>goodluckgoodluck</p>
<p>think about yourself moving into some college next fall, don’t be specific about where, and how <em>exciting</em> it will be to take that step in life. all the new people you will meet, and the professors, and the cool clubs…and then you’ll
have papers to write and exams to take and you will be tired and staying up too late anyway. you don’t have to be at Cornell for any of that, it’s just the regular college experience and from what I can tell talking with my high school friends it really happens everywhere. I really love Cornell so I understand your affection, but I think envisioning the college experience is your best alternative. hoping you’ll all be receiving good news tomorrow!</p>
<p>well, cornell is the second love in my life (after my boyfriend/future husband) and i was rejected the first time around, but then i got accepted for the spring. so if you don’t get in, it’s not the end of the world. go somewhere else, get good grades, then apply as a transfer student.</p>
<p>Relax. Cornell isn’t your only dream right?</p>
