[/ul]Subjective:[ul]
[<em>] Essays: Ok, I suppose. Probably nothing special compared to others.
[</em>] Teacher Recs: Not sure, waived my right to see it
[<em>] Counselor Rec: Ditto
[</em>] Interview: I think it went very well. We talked for a little over an hour at a cafe, which was pretty nice. Still didn't help me though.
[<em>] Hook (if any): If I had a hook, it'd be research - I was a semifinalist in Siemens Westinghouse and Intel STS, amongst other things. Also, I'm a president of 3 different clubs in my school, including National Honor Society.
[/ul]Location/Person:[ul]
[</em>] State or Country: New York
[<em>] School Type: Suburban Public
[</em>] Ethnicity: Caucasian
[<em>] Gender: Male
[</em>] Why you think you were accepted/rejected/defered: Probably because my standardized scores are likely subpar compared to others, and so are my essays. Also, I'll be as tactful as possible and just say that I am at the wrong end of affirmative action here, instead of going into a tirade about it. Still, who can honestly tell what they were looking for?

<p>sorry bout this chaoti... i am basically a female version of what you have just posted, except my mail hasn't gotten here yet. and i haven't done any research... so... ain't nuthin much left for me...</p>

<p>nana - well considering people in cali have already heard rejections and waitlists...i dont think it really means anythin =P</p>

<p>Ritzbitz! I've been waiting to hear about you since early decisions last november. What happened to Yale? I'm glad to see you're coming to Princeton!</p>

<p>Hi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I missed you too! That fateful day, Nov 16 was my last day on these forums until recently.... and Yale was my only rejection in this whole process. But whatever, I'm almost 100 positive Princeton is what's in my heart- and I was pretty sure of that back in November too (just not 100percent lol) So everything worked out for me! I still need to visit Duke before I decide to definitely come (although I'm ready to write out the check) I just want to "weigh my options" first... Like anythign could ever beat Princeton!</p>

<p>Hi all, just joined CC...eagerly, if not apprehensively, awaiting Pton's decision. Hope to hear tomorrow, and shall post specs whenever I hear.</p>

<p>Also, wanted to see who all from Texas has gotten in...thought it might be interesting to stack up the competition from TX</p>

<p>** ACCCEPTED!!! OMFG!!!**</p>

<p>Omg! Congrats Sucharita Omg Omg Omg Im So Happy For U!!!!!!!</p>

<p>GO CHECK OUT THE PRINCETON 2009 SUB FORUM!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>SUCHARITA!!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!!!!!! THRILLED FOR YOU....I KNOW HOW MANY DISAPPOINTMENTS YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS WEEK!!!!</p>

<p>now there is only me.....maybe princeton will take pity on another rejected everywhere 1600...</p>

<p>WOW Congrats for all of you who have got in!!!!!!!!!!
Well you all deserved it :)
Does anyone know when you can check the results by phone?
I'm 100% positive that I've been rejected(my friend down here in Korea got his acceptance letter this morning and I haven't which is precisely what happened when I got deferred) but I still wanna check!!
I think I'm going to Duke which is still a great school but I started studying for a school in the states cuz of Pton so getting rejected really sucks.
But in the corner of my mind I still hope that I'm accepted but there was some mailing mistake or something:)
Anyways for those who're waiting lets keep our teeny tiny fraction of hope there!</p>
