<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I took a minute to put together a list of everyone who replied to the Official Class of 2012 ED thread, and said they were admitted. I figured it might be helpful for all of you to contact people.</p>

<p>I went a little farther and pulled some basic biographical details about them - where each of you are from, maybe your main interests. I stayed away from the scores and numbers since that's not really going to give anyone a reason to want to get to know you, but the other stuff might. And everyone who got deferred, i'll include them if/when they get accepted RD in april.</p>

<p>People with a * in front of their username included full profile details in the Official ED Thread, the others just posted partial details or just the fact that they were accepted.</p>

<p>Accepted ED to Columbia:</p>

4

<p>I’m ED too - even 30!</p>

<p>[Academic</a> Index Calculator - Ivy League](<a href=“http://www.collegeconfidential.com/academic_index3.htm]Academic”>http://www.collegeconfidential.com/academic_index3.htm)</p>

<p>can people who were accepted please post the number they got. if you only took 2 sat II use sat writing for third sat II. use weighted gpa</p>

7

<p>236, or 9</p>

<p>I hope that helps…</p>

8

<p>I’m ED as well. Can’t wait for COLUMBIA BABY!!! :D</p>

<p>Ooooh, dear God, I hate that stupid academic index calculator. </p>

<p>It’s something that I would have loved last year, eagerly hoping to quell insecurities about college acceptances. Well, you know what that thing tells you? </p>

<p>All it tells you is: you have high GPA, rank, and SATs, you’ll be a stronger applicant - lower, less chances. That’s it. And that should be especially intuitive to anyone here at this point. </p>

<p>However, I DID try this because another CCer posted this blasted thing (and I argued it in that thread as well) and I have an index of 4! I shouldn’t be going to college, no less Columbia as an early decision applicant. Geez.</p>

<p>Look beyond the numbers, get over your insecurities, and let everything fall into place as it will.</p>

10

<p>p.s. I LOVE COLUMBIA</p>

<p>:)</p>

11

<p>denzera, a little creepy just a little, but w/e.</p>

12

<p>yeah, maybe. i mean, i was reading the ED thread and thinking “wow, so much to read through…” and also thinking “I should congratulate these people” and then decided “why don’t I just jot down a list of everyone in a text file and post it”.</p>

<p>And then I went totally overboard. Happens all the time, it’s why they pay me. Oh, wait, they’re not paying me to be on CC? Shoot, back to work I guess.</p>

13

<p>I’m ed also, but I went through the whole questbridge process. I dont post too much, but I guess, maybe I should be more involved since so many of us will be attending the same school in a couple of moths.</p>

14

<p>To add more info, I’m a girl from MN, Korean citizen, C.Prescott Davis Scholar, took ACT instead of SAT1</p>

15

<p>Congrats to all you guys and gals.</p>

<p>Someone should compile an analysis of how applicants who post all the time about how great Columbia is / how they so desperately want to go to Columbia / freak out every day on here about their chances / etc. fare versus those who don’t. Witnessing this board for a half-dozen admissions cycles, I would hypothesize that the applicants in the former group are far less likely to get in. I only recognize a few of the monikers on this list, and the posters I can think of who fall into the former group generally do not get in.</p>

<p>You can add DizzySon if you want. From California.</p>
