<p>I know making this thread is so absolutely pointless, but guys, guys I'm really scared and nervous. I really, really want to go to JHU, I told myself I wouldn't even start another application or think of another college unless I don't get in on December 15th, and it just seems so far away. I'm at the point where I know exactly how many seconds it takes to load each and every web page of Johns Hopkins Website. =/</p>
<p>I hope you're kidding about the "knowing exactly how many seconds" part lol. Other than that, I'm about on the same page.</p>
<p>:) Time will go by fast!</p>
<p>I just try not to think about it. Although Hopkins is my first choice, I'm not going to stress myself out about it. Just go out and have some fun. You'll forget about it soon enough.</p>
<p>To tell you the truth I am mentally preparing to be rejected ("deferred")...</p>
<p>That way if I get accepted I'll be elated, but if I get rejected I won't go completely psycho...</p>
<p>And it's going to suck cause we have a field trip to NYC on 12/16...therefore I'll either be really depressed on the day of the trip or super excited...</p>
<p>Whatever...mdkeung is right...just try not to think about it...</p>
<p>And I am actually completeing all of my apps to oher schools, cause I don't want to be stuck with a bunch of work to do in the event that I get rejected...it would just make me more depressed...</p>
<p>And its going to suck during all the holiday parties...when people ask if I got accepted or not...ugh...I don't even want to think about it right now...</p>
<p>avenger: me too. totally going for the whole denial thing right now. I'm facing rejection and i'm trying to be ok with it. but then theres this teeny part of me that gives me hope and its just not fun.
oy vey. but honestly 900+ ED applicants this year? yikes thats scary.</p>
<p>yea...thats a lot more that last year (I think...)....there goes the crazily high acceptance rate for Eders...</p>
<p>Penn had a huge increase in ED applicants...</p>
<p>The number of EDers to Harvard actually went down...haha</p>
<p>when i first submitted my app, i had panic attacks like every hour, then it went to every few hours. now its like once a day. lol. hang in there peeps, dec 15th will come fast enough (i hope).</p>
<p>you know what? now that i come to think of it....900 or so ED applicants is...A LOT....=( but, there's nothing i can do about it except hope that jhu's where i'm supposed to go for college...and if not, then there will be other options...</p>
<p>apparently, its the biggest ED pool hopkins has had...ever. </p>
<p>says a student enrolled there</p>
<p>noooooooooooo....... <watches hopes="" of="" going="" to="" jhu="" go="" down="" the="" drain=""></watches></p>
<p>relax everyone. we all need to chill.
says nanaijuh as she freaks out. haha</p>
<p>"says nanaijuh as she freaks out"</p>
<p>haha...that's so true....</p>
<p>Other people in my school applied ED to Cornell, Dartmouth, MIT...and they're all really anxious. I act all nonchalant and say "it's not a big deal; whatever happens, happens. There's nothing that you can do about it now."</p>
<p>Then I come hope amd frantically review every post that was made on CC to see if laxfan said anything like "haha...I just a bunch of adcoms using pages from aVenger's app as napkins...I guess he got rejected..."</p>
<p>haha</p>
<p>(The last part was a joke...I know that laxfan doesn't review apps)</p>
<p>^haha omg bro I do the same thing. I'll be like, ah w.e, senioritis w00t w00t, then I'll come home, and the FIRST thing I do is go on CC to check if there are any really important posts, especially by laxfan lol.</p>
<p>i love this freak out thread.</p>
<p>haha...yep...interesting thread...</p>
<p>xindianx...sometimes I get home from school pretty late, so during my bio club meetings I borrow my bio teacher's laptop and go on CC...its really pathetic...</p>
<p>She always sees what I'm doing and tells me that I have pathetically low self esteem for my stature and itnelligence...haha...</p>
<p>(I'm a really tall indian guy...that's what I mean by stature)</p>
<p>haha, yeah I'm indian too, guju (hence the username), what part of Jersey are you from? I'm from morris county. And yeah, I go on CC at school too, it's ridiculously pathetic (because absolutely no one posts before 2 anyways)..lol</p>
<p>Middlesex County...(its in central NJ...)</p>
<p>I don't know why my name is aVenger...my first name starts with a V...so I made the V in avenger a capital letter, and I thought it was decent enough for CC. I mean...some people have names like "untitled" or "ICouldntThinkofOne" so I figured that mine was acceptable...haha...</p>
<p>I imagine there are a lot of indian people in JHU since it's like a pre-med school or whatever...that should be pretty chill (if I get in)...</p>
<p>hahahaha - its great to see i'm not alone in the "freak-out process." I too am guilty of mental defense. lol...oh well. almost a week has gone by and it feels like forever!! but schoolwork-wise, it seems to have zoomed by. Time is quite tricky. =P</p>
<p>Hmm....is everyone here either indian or asian?? (jus curious =D)</p>
<p>...and I'm sure if laxfan even bothers posting in THIS thread, she'll DEFINITELY tell us to take a chill pill. hahahha...</p>
<p>(ps - i check CC at school too =P)</p>
<p>I'm Asian! Lol.</p>
<p>I don't check CC at school. Does that not make me a true CCer? :D</p>
<p>No...that just makes you normal...</p>
<p>We're all just paranoid freaks...haha</p>
