<p>I'm going to get SO rejected from Yale. Like ridiculously rejected. They're going to lay the smack down. I wonder if there's more than one type of rejection letter. One could be like "Thanks for applying, there were many quality applicants, but we just don't think you're a fit" and one could be like "*** were you thinking when you applied you moron, no no no NO. thinking about you and us together in the same room makes us ill, go away and never return! HUMAN SCUM HUMAN SCUM". And yeah. I'd get that second one. Oh dear. I'm afraid. Ah well, life goes on I'm sure.</p>
<p>Dude, it doesn't matter. It's just a school. Sure, it'd be nice to go to Yale, but **** happens. Keep in mind that everything happens for a reason =]</p>
<p>We can be rejected buddies :D lol</p>
<p>triplets</p>
<p><-- rejecting me too</p>
<p>chiq and hows....what are your stats?</p>
<p>ha, join the club, I will be reject number 1(if I think this way then when I get rejected I wont be sad, but if I get accepted I will be utterly happy)</p>
<p><em>signs up on the reject club list</em></p>
<p>I didnt even know there was a supplement to the secondary school report till last week :o and when I'd called up before that they peremptorily told me that my folder was complete so obviously they had already chucked it into the recycling bin by then :(</p>
<p>haha indeed soanyhows, you're so right, i know it doesn't matter. wherever i go i'm sure i'll be the happiest little child ever. my nerves seem to do this by themselves though, it's uncanny. oh and hypoxia, i never know what people mean when they ask 'what are your stats?'. do you want my entire application? or just, say... SAT scores... lol.</p>
<p>well.. we already have a harvard to-be-rejected club. lets make one here too... = P</p>
<p>hmmm yale to-be-rejected club... can i put that on my resume?
ahaha just kidding
i crack myself up</p>
<p>i mean:</p>
<p>sat/act/satii
gpa/class rank
major awards
major ec's</p>
<p>hahah irock.... if i found the club, can I use it as an EC for my grad school app? lol :D
Applying to Yale for grad school after getting rejected once is going to suck =</p>

...not if you have have an incredible four years undergrad and show them what a mistake they made in originally rejecting you. That's how I'm planning to see it, anyways. Or maybe I could win a Rhodes scholarship in four years and send the letter to all of the schools that reject me tomorrow. ;)</p>
<p>You know, after some thought, rejections tomorrow might be in my best long-term interest....lol.</p>
<p>lol no jokes eh
going to a Canadian school for undergrad would probably be my best option (aka 1/15th the price)</p>
<p>...but it's yale!!</p>
<p>k here goes</p>
<p>sat/act/satii:
SAT I Verbal - 770
SAT I Math - 800
SAT II Writing - 800
SAT II Lit - 760
SAT II Math - 690 (bahh)</p>
<p>gpa/class rank
i have like an 89.5% average.. not sure what that is as a GPA. presumably it's low since you crazy american kids all get 90+</p>
<p>major awards - this one's easy... NONE. don't mock me. </p>
<p>major ec's
editor in chief of the yearbook, newspaper columnist, i don't know there's a bunch but i hate just listing it. you'll have to die curious.</p>
<p>Dude your chances are much better than mine! :s
Your AI will be quite high, and your EC's show leadership.</p>
<p>I have like no volunteer work, my test scores are crap,
and, yep, I made a spelling mistake in my essay. LOL</p>

Don't worry about that - Yale won't hold it against you (assuming your school doesn't offer/promote them). I had no major awards, and I got in...</p>

[/quote]
hehe...I wrote an email to my regional representative a few months before I applied, and I spelled "superintendent" wrong. Yeah, I spelled it 'superintendant' - I was typing too fast. What's sad about it is that I'm the most anal person in the world when it comes to spelling - I correct my friends' errors all the time. It was very embarrassing. :)</p>
<p>:S It sucks when you realize it, eh?
I made an extremely last-minute change to my essay and didn't realize that I had put 'murders' instead of 'murderers'. Sigh.</p>
<p>Oh the American College process, it is indeed fun times :D</p>
<p>During sophomore year, one of the people in my honors History class wrote a paper about European society of the Middle Ages and misspelled "peasants" as "pheasants" through the whole thing. That was fun. :)</p>
<p>OH MY GOD YOU GUYS. You are sooooooooo late. I already got rejected in December ;)</p>
<p>"pheasants"....lol....</p>
<p>hahaha that pheasants thing is going to have me giggling for the next week or so. i'm easily amused. anyway, they probably don't even notice spelling mistakes in essays, just because they read so many and that's something you'd start to skim over. just like sometimes when you read a sentence that's missing a word like 'the' or something you just add it in your head without noticing. as long as it's just one, not like ten, and it isn't something as entertaining as peasants/pheasants you should be fine. obviously they would notice something like... "so than we went two tha stowr and bott sum cheze" but yeah. hopefully you get my point, because i forget what it was.</p>
