Official Harvard SCEA Class of 2017

<p>Hope I’m not the only one who still hasn’t realized the full magnitude of the phrase “I just applied to Harvard.”</p>

<p>Also there isno difference between a 2400 and 2300.</p>

<p>it made all the difference for adolf [Hitler</a> gets Rejected from Harvard - YouTube](<a href=“- YouTube”>- YouTube)</p>

<p>well…there is a difference between 2400 and 2300, otherwise what’s the point of giving two different numbers? A 2400 definitely looks better than a 2300, but how much better? only slightly</p>

<p>Obviously a 2400 is “better” than a 2300, but in the context of admissions, especially holistic admissions, it’s only one part of your package. Once you reach the grade threshold, so to speak, points here or there don’t really make a difference.</p>

<p>Considering that majority of the applicants are within the grade threshold, I feel like the essays, extraordinary ECs, or a passion for something are what push most candidates over the edge.</p>

<p>^ I would tend to agree with you, especially the LORs and essays. I suppose, though, that we’ll all find out just how much in less than 2 days hahaha.</p>

<p>@superdario , a beautiful video for all of us deferred or rejected this week for SCEA :slight_smile: haha…though I’m applying to Yale. I guess Hitler hates me even more haha</p>

<p>Any one think decisions might be emailed tomorrow at 5pm? The website says BY Dec 13. And 12/12/12 sounds better than 12/13/12. Lol</p>

<p>anyone able to view their app status online? My daughter is no longer able to.</p>

<p>There was a point in this morning that i couldn’t log in, but maybe that was just a technical error.</p>

<p>But I can log in so far.</p>

<p>I can still log in.</p>

<p>She was able to up until about 6 PM EST.</p>

<p>Crossing my fingers for her! Hopefully it’s a sign of good things to come on the 13th :)</p>

<p>She is able to again. Thank you for your reply.</p>

<p>Does anyone else have a final exam on Friday? For which they have to study mostly Thursday afternoon? Because sympathy.</p>

<p>I have roughly 1000 things due Friday. Can’t imagine myself being able to function much Thursday afternoon.</p>

<p>I’m so glad my teachers decided to lighten the load before winter break! With all the anxiety coming from the impending Harvard decision, it would be very hard to function…</p>

<p>Man, I’m so on edge right now that “Hitler’s” reaction in that video doesn’t seem all that far-fetched…</p>

<p>Is everyone able to login right now? People said they can’t, but I can…so I’m freaking out!</p>
