Official Stanford SCEA 2017 Applicants' Discussion Thread

<p>@Slicekick</p>

<p>Me either, love that school.</p>

<p>So is it a good sign my mommy says she’d be surprised if I was rejected? :p</p>

<p>I’m off to sleep, good luck tomorrow everyone! Get some good rest and embrace the bliss tomorrow, one way or the other!</p>

<p>So… do I work on other apps or watch TV now to calm my nerves?</p>

<p>Oh btw, none of you need to worry. If they do post the message at like 2 or 3 am tonight, I am sure I will be up to read it. CC/other college stuff is just too good of a way to procrastinate studying for a bio test…</p>

<p>Sooooo behind on all my other apps :confused: Stress + schoolwork = essays untouched. fmlll. :(</p>

<p>I have to do 8 apps in a week lolololol what is life.</p>

<p>iman: PLEASE PM me if so (:</p>

<p>I will be up as well. Whoever sees it first, plz post on this thread!!</p>

<p>Uhh yeah so at this point my midyear report looks abysmal. Guess it’s Stanford or nothing (AKA a UC lololol).</p>

<p>GUYS PM ME if you see any news on admissions, I’ll prob be up writing/procrastinating essays</p>

<p>@nygiants27</p>

<p>I know that feel bro…
I only have 4 apps left (LOL “only”) but those apps total 7 untouched essays…
It’s safe to say that I’ll have to put life on hold for the remaining days of December :(</p>

<p>8 apps = 6 big essays, at least 20 other shorter prompts ranging from 300-2000 char…</p>

<p>will do, nygiants</p>

<p>I’ll post on here too.</p>

<p>My blood pressure is spiking just thinking about that message.</p>

<p>This is why I hope it’s this week. I can’t find the motivation for other apps until I know.</p>

<p>Holocene-exactly. If I’m accepted all those other apps will be SO much less stressful…even though some of them are my top choices (even over Stanford) I could just relax and do my best on the essays and know if worst comes to worst I have Stanford.</p>

<p>anddd if I get rejected, I’ll be a horribly mess but know I better do a damn good job on those essays if I want to get in somewhere I’ve always dreamed of…so maybe that’ll be motivation lol</p>

<p>[Stanford</a> Sierra Camp: Introduction](<a href=“http://ssc.stanford.edu/intro.html]Stanford”>http://ssc.stanford.edu/intro.html) Is it pathetic that one of the big reasons I want to go to Stanford is because I want to work here in the summers? </p>

<p>I went every summer as a kid. I would love the chance to be a counselor. They all looked like they were having so much fun.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>YEESSS. Yeah, there are a few schools I would pick over Stanford, but having it as a “back up” would be ridiculous.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>This quite literally sums up my life right now.</p>

<p>Are we going to use the same stats form as they did last year? I kind of want to fill it out now so that if I get rejected I can just post it really quickly instead of dwelling on everything (although I’m sure I will anyway).</p>

<p>I think so, yeah. Besides, if your format is slightly different no one will care. Is the decisions thread made yet? We might want to hold off so it doesn’t get clogged with comments.</p>

<p>All my other apps are done :slight_smile: Hoorah! It’s def. a weight off my shoulders to know that no matter what happens, I’ve got other options DONE</p>

<p>hopefully i get in so i dont have to do my upenn/yale/princeton apps</p>

<p>Yeah, let’s wait to make the thread. I’m just going to prepare myself.</p>
