Omg 17 Days

<p>You want to see scary? Go look at the Dartmouth board...there are only a few up at this point, but so far things are NOT encouraging.</p>

<p>omg poor guys..i hope we're not like that next week...:(</p>

<p>why is pton soooo slow!!! why why why why!! i wil stop complaining if you accept me tho :)</p>

<p>we are falling behind majorly here guys!! lets keep posting!!</p>

<p>I have been able to control myself up to this point, but not anymore. I can't stand to wait any longer when everybody else is getting their decisions already ..</p>

<p>Is it safe to say that we will get them by next week or do we really have to wait until the week after? Let me know!!!</p>

<p>i will say it's next week for you guys in the states for sure. with some luck, i will also be able to get the decision by phone :D</p>

<p><<why is="" pton="" soooo="" slow!!!="" why="" why!!="">></why></p>

<p>You know guys and gals....part of the reason it's taking longer this year is probably the 10% (?) jump in ED applications. And I guess even though it's almost an unbearable wait (I'm the mom of an anxious EDer), it makes me feel good to know that they did not try to rush through the applications and are giving them the attention and care they deserve. Keep thinking positive thoughts............And best wishes to all!!</p>

<p>very true indeed KFL :) thanks i feel a bit better :) (i just have to keep this up for a week now...hm...)</p>

<p>Holy crap, have you guys looked at Dartmouth's and Columbia's ED boards? It seemed like almost everyone got in! (Some people had NO hook and got in.) Hopefully this bodes well for Princeton next week.</p>

<p>um...no offence to dartmouth/columbia and correct me if im wrong...isnt pton SLIGHTLY more competitive than those schools?</p>

<p>Thats a valid argument, but don't forget the fact that only people who are accepted will post. I don't think anybody with a rejection would be rushing to the computer and post their outcomes</p>

<p>um yeah. Still, the ED round at dartmouth and columbia (notice the lowercase letters now) was pretty kind compared to last year. Pray that Pton takes more as they expand their class size for next year!</p>

<p>another valid argument :)</p>

<p>True Agrophobic, but the stats of some of the people accepted weren't all that impressive, and they didn't even have a hook! </p>

<p>I guess that just shows that stats mean very little!</p>

<p>i hope they will be more generous with int'ls this year :D</p>

<p>when are you guys going to "seriously" start checking your mailboxes? monday? i dont wanna start late or anything... :p</p>

<p>Tomorrow, probably. But I live Jersey, so it's not quite so crazy as it sounds...ok, maybe it is.</p>

<p>yea...i think ill start saturday... im giving my parents "a no touch or look" on the mail so they dont even get to see the size of the letter</p>

<p>I solved the parent problem by taking all of the mailbox keys.</p>

<p>I used a friends mailing address right next door... That way my parents won't suspect anything :)</p>

<p>What is next year's class size?</p>

<p>I hope it's a lot bigger because I'm not sure what hook I have...if any.</p>
