<p>theoretically we could all get in early lol :)</p>
<p>17 days (at the most? hopefully 10 days) left</p>
<p>Oh great, now we have a countdown. As if I wasn’t anxious enough.</p>
<p>Story: So I go to a Catholic school, and though a rather staunch agnostic (leaning atheist), I actually stopped by the chapel today after school and lit a prayer candle. My thought was basically along the lines “What the hell? It can’t hurt and if God exists, I need all the help I can get.”</p>
<p>This actually raises a potentially interesting conversation- what religion does everyone follow? Or are you just not religious? I know at HSHSP this summer almost all of us (save a few Christians and ethnic Jews) were agnostic/atheist/plain not religious.</p>
<p>Yea, theoretically. But theoretically I could sprout wings and fly too. </p>
<p>JagsSoccer: Don’t mention Rugters, I got accepted, but god, I hope I don’t end up there.</p>
<p>Haha, I know! Basically its <em>Insert High School Here</em> for another 4 years…ugh, I dont think I can bear going into 13th grade…</p>
<p>It’d be interesting to see what percentage of people get into MIT that are on this list. That way we could see to the extent of which CC people are a skewed applicant pool</p>
<p>we’ll just have to find out in a week or two, or you can just go look at previous years’ decision threads</p>

<p>=P Okay, this needs to stop. Why does MIT need to have SOOO many EA applicants? <em>tear</em></p>
<p>Just kidding. I hope to meet all of you when (yay for optimism) we’re all accepted EA. :)</p>
<p>lol we’re only 22 of the total 3937 early applicants</p>
<p>I do agree with la montagne that there are WAY to many EA applicants this year. Damn you, Harvard and Princeton. I hate you.
Oh well… Hopefully MIT is expecting a lower matriculation rate and will accept more than the 390 they did last year (one can only hope).</p>
<p>That’d be nice. Hey, that and if they accepted the recruited athletes early. [insert a loud, not very subtle cough focused about 850 miles east]</p>
<p>I actually mapquested my house to MIT to figure out that distance, and it would be faster for me to drive through Canada to get there (I live in Michigan). Interesting.</p>
<p>At least we’re not applying to Yale… 33% more applicants than last year! MIT is only 10% more thank goodness.</p>
<p>33 percent??? holy crap…</p>
<p>I know. Chicago rose by 45%. :-/.</p>
<p>At least MIT seems to be able to handle the paperwork. Our guidance counselor has had to send my son’s transcript to Notre Dame three times, they don’t seem to be able to assemble the EA files at all, so I think they must be overwhelmed as well. She finally faxed it and they now claim over the phone they have received it, but it has been a real battle. I was about ready to drive it to South Bend myself. Meanwhile, she sent the transcript to MIT the same day, October 8, and they had no problem getting it in his file.</p>
