<p>This thread shows the EA statistics from this year - comes from a Notre Dame thread back in January or so.</p>

<p>^^^i dont get how that is relevant to a NU thread?</p>

<p>I think she/he just got too many windows open and confused ND with NU. It happens to me sometime too. :)</p>

<p>fhimas, i was ticked too...I thought I had the stats to get in b/c I got in to Vandy and WashU...</p>

<p>O well...</p>

<p>^ I got into Vandy, Cal, Tufts, and wl-ed at Swat and Columbia. NU was my number one too! I'm very distraught. I can't even concentrate on things anymore. But you know what, state for speech is coming up, and I'm going to work my butt off again to win. Then, I'll be a two time state champ, two time all-stater, and a state and nationally recognized young composer. Rejects - woo woo!</p>

<p>I'm upset as well... I mean, I definitely am in in the range of the accepted people's stats, and I worked hard on that application. Oh well. I guess it just isn't where I'm supposed to be. I have great options with other schools... probably will choose between Pepperdine and the University of Rochester.</p>

<p>Rejected! Bummer...NU was my top choice school.</p>
