<p>SCREW the CRAPPLE and IPHONE 5Same**** . All about that Android Samsung LG</p>
<p>Mods please delete this post</p>
<p>Haha I would get an Android but I’m so used to iOS now I don’t wanna make the switch. Having it jailbroken makes it tons better tho</p>
<p>@Amraam yeah my brother got in after getting deferred and my family is asian. And his deferral wasn’t based on race, he just had low stats. </p>

<p>To whomever asked about ADHD: the common app has a place where you can write about extenuating circumstances (additional information?). use that. don’t waste your common app essay talking about ADHD when obviously you’re so much more than that. I was going to write about having an ED and my counselor told me that you are basically trying to get someone to fall in love with you in ten minutes- it’s a first date, don’t mention anything negative. If you can talk about it in a way that makes you look stronger for it, go for it. Just don’t pull the “oh woe is me” excuse. you’ll just look whiny and entitled.</p>
<p>Sucks getting deferred. I either want a fast unpainful rejection or a fast acceptance. IDK why colleges trying to tease people</p>
<p>Are any of you in IB?</p>
<p>IB Diploma?</p>
<p>@cabooser yes</p>
<p>I didn’t mention having ADHD anywhere at all on the common app. I wish someone had told me this sooner…</p>
<p>Joohyo, deferrals do indeed suck, but colleges aren’t trying to tease people; they are trying to admit applicants who they feel complement the student body well. And why would you want a rejection letter over a deferral one? That would sting even worse. </p>
<p>I am reminded of a quote by Katherine Hepburn: “We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers - but never blame yourself. It’s never your fault. But it’s always your fault, because if you wanted to change you’re the one who has got to change.”</p>
<p>Good luck to all! </p>
<p>By the way, who here is applying to the College of Engineering? (I applied for CS at the CoE)</p>
<p>I’m doing a combo of IB certificates and AP classes since my school only offers a limited number of courses in each subject group.</p>
<p>Because I am in the IB Diploma and I’ve seen some stats online that it really helps your chances of getting into Mich</p>
<p>IB Diploma holders on average for each college have a 10% higher of getting in or something. </p>
<p>I applied CoE</p>
<p>I’m also doing comp sci/engineering at CoE</p>
<p>@Amraam120 thank you for that quote pretty good. And I just want a fast acceptance or rejection straight forward answers. Cause even if the college accept me like they ruined my mood already.</p>
<p>I saw that one year Michigan had a 78.5% acceptance rate for IB diploma students

<p>Compsci over here too.</p>
<p>Trust me, I’ve gotten two rejection letters (Caltech and Columbia) and nothing brightens up a day like getting flat-out rejections from two of the colleges you most want to go to. :D</p>
<p>I applied to CoE for computer engineering</p>
