<p>Wow, there are so many qualified internationals. I think I just lost all hope of getting in xD</p>

<p>Whatever happens, I’m happy and proud that I applied to an institvte as fine as MIT, and wish all of you the best of luck.</p>

<p>BTW let me fix the little blunder above (two people posted too close together):</p>

<p>@Sci-Fry I sent you a private message. :)</p>

<p>I’m going to email them telling them that I know the digits of pi really well. Maybe that will impress them LOL. :D</p>

<p>lol, I just realized that I’ll be checking MIT decisions right after a 16 hour flight from Hong Kong to the US…</p>

<p>^ Another Hongkonger. Do I happen to know you in real life?</p>

<p>@kenhungkk
Probably not - I’ve seen your previous posts, and I don’t know any IMO silver medalists!</p>

<p>I’ll be at the JFK airport checking decisions. Anyone else going to be there? :D</p>

<p>I just got a fortune from a fortune cookie at the King Buffet that said, “Your most memorable dream will come true.” MIT, here I come!</p>

<p>Should I stay awake for the decision?</p>

<p>^
I’m thinking of the same… I’ll get the decisions March 15, 1.14 AM</p>

<p>I’m usually awake till that time… so I think I will :p</p>

<p>Getting anxious and refreshing decisions.mit.edu until my result pops out, and screaming (no matter whether I get accepted or rejected) will be fun :p</p>

<p>@baolong26_12: Yes, you should, because you won’t be able to help turning on your PC :D</p>

<p>@failgirl: Yay!! Another course 22!!</p>

<p>Hey! I’ve also applied to MIT. I’m from Azerbaijan (it’s near the Caspian Sea). My intented major is Economics - i’m just lovin it! I can’t wait for Pi day…</p>
