MIT Class of 2022 applicants

I didn’t get a verification request but “Verification Statement” shows up as completed in financial aid. But I’m sure its probably unrelated…

what time RD decisions come out?

6:28pm EST

@MITcollege 6:28 pm Eastern Time

Thanks @derpdarklord @mmstanfordbound .

Pi day, tau time.

Dang this waiting is rough. My other colleges so far replied unexpectedly fast and I didn’t have to deal with a definite date and time. Ughhhh

I’m off school rn so it’s even worse…

Waddup people. Anyone really nervous? I think my nervousness is gonna come tomorrow (or whenever I really think about the fact I’m gonna get the decision tomorrow) lol

I don’t think I’m ready for this…yet at the same time I just wanna know…but also I enjoy this uncertainty. Since I was just thinking about the Heisenberg uncertainty principle I’m gonna ask this: are hope and certainty conjugate quantities?

I think they are. For this decision, I 99.9% certain that I will be rejected but still have 0.1% hope. And when we see the decisions, the wave function will collapse and we will have a definite value. (Just going crazy 24 hours before the decision :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: )

Hahaha that’s probably true XD and until we log in tomorrow at decision.mit.edu, all our admission status is in a superposition of all 3 possible outcomes.

Also technically you could argue how your chance of getting in is 33% since there are 3 outcomes (adMIT, deny, waitlist) and being admitted is 1 out of 3 options

If only it worked that way :smiley:

I wish I had a 33% chance of getting to MIT :))

I probably have like a 0.1% chance of getting in, but I’m still glad I applied.

I’m glad that I applied, and I’m glad that my test scores were high enough to merit my application a look. I live a lucky life, and I’m happy that I even had the privilege to throw my hat in the ring.

I’m trying really hard rn to convince myself I will definitely be rejected so I’m not going to be dissapointed when I get rejected tomorrow. Plz hope, just go away. [-(

Schrödinger’s Decision: Until Pi Day, Tau Time, you are both accepted and rejected.

Honestly tomorrow is so busy for me from crack of dawn until the evening so hopefully signing into decisions.mit.edu will be as quick and painless as ripping a bandaid off.

What if I just don’t log in out of anxiety
