lol i have no hope of getting in...

<p>I guess thats what makes it all the more fun on the 29th anyone else feeling like this :-p?</p>

<p>Neither do I. This is why it sucks. Right up to the moment when you click and see your decision, it's painfully anxious but bearable--because you don't know, you may have gotten in. But once you click it's done, forever, over.</p>

<p>That's what I thought on Dec. 15, either accept or reject. But guess what, what did I get.... DEFERRED! (Better than being rejected though!) Yesssss!</p>

<p>I was deferred, too. I've come to accept the cold reality that awaits me, though some part of me clings onto a ludicrous hope... o the bitter agony</p>

<p>aaah...I felt exactly the same way, but I can tell you that it means nothing! You can be accepted, waitlisted, or rejected, unfortunately. It's completely normal! :)</p>

<p>I think my son feels that way, too -- he's so focused on schools he actually will probably get into that he just feels giddy and silly about Stanford.</p>

<p>I hate that feeling when you click. Worst feeling ever -- I hate doing for grades, SATs, Colleges etc... it's such a bad sinking feeling.</p>

<p>I have the same feeling..but we should not give up hope!
JUST HAVE A LITTLE FAITH!!!</p>

<p>I prepared myself for a rejection and was kind of underwhelmed when I was accepted. I was kind of like "eh..ok, then"</p>

<p>^Lol no risk of that happening in my situation (I'm def. not getting accepted...even if I were to get accepted, I would NOT be underwhelmed lol!!!)</p>

<p>I thought Stanford releases on the 30th???</p>

<p>Er, it does...this Friday. 3pm Pacific time.</p>

<p>Anyone here who got rejected from all the ivies they applied to and are still holding out hope for Stanford?</p>

<p>I am, in a half-hearted sort of way. (So far I'm four out of five for rejections, including at some places less selective than Stanford, but on the other hand Caltech didn't hate me. ;))</p>

<p>harvard: rejected
princeton: rejected
yale: rejected
brown: WLed
columbia: Wled
berkeley (out of state): accepted
u chicago: accepted
rice: accepted
NYU: accepted
duke: accepted</p>

Don't be scared! Stanford is different and SO MUCH BETTER! Congratulations on all your acceptances. They are truly impressive, I mean it!</p>

I didn't get rejected from the Ivies I applied to but Stanford is still my number one! The Ivies were always 2nd :) I'm hoping for the best for all of us today.</p>

<p>jimbob....share the wealth!</p>

<p>Oh, and Noldo, one of my friends was fine about his Caltech rejection till he found out that a girl <em>gasp</em> had got in ahead of him (MCP much?)....he then spent the evening reading your blog (and making me read random snippets, inducing some severe intimidation might I add) and obsessing. Jus' saying. :)</p>

<p>:) Good luck. 4 hours till Stanford!!!</p>

<p>jimbob, where all were you accepted yesterday?</p>

<p>I have no chance of getting into Stanford, yet it's all I'm thinking about today. x(</p>
