Princeton RD 2020 thread

@MijoChbulkan My entire school is clueless about CC. I’m (for the most part) the only student who is adamant about the ivies.

@schroscat there’s a range at my school, but there are definitely some CCers. :confused:

@MijoChbulkan Oh, gosh, no…thank goodness I don’t have to deal with that.

@schroscat I decided that I don’t care anymore. Less than a semester left anyway

@MijoChbulkan I just want to know what I’ll be doing for the next four years. I’m seriously considering going to community college for two years and then transferring somewhere else to save money.

@schroscat I’m fine with paying for UVA, and I’m in there already. So I just need to wait for the 31st to see whether or not I will go to UVA

@MijoChbulkan Fingers crossed for you!!!

@schroscat same for you, buddy. Honestly, I hope/assume that people will get in to their top choices so when I see people get rejected or deferred like I am so surprised. I also get abnormally happy for other people when they get in to schools. They’ll be like “yeah, I got in” then I like type in all caps and get more excited than them. It’s a problem

@MijoChbulkan This whole process gets me so stressed. Especially with the LLs. I get so happy for my friends, and then I remember that I applied to the same school…and then I get super nervous. But, I totally feel you. My friend got into Yale and I flipped for a good two hours.

@schroscat I don’t think anyone at my school has gotten a LL, so I’m good there. I admit CC made me feel a little insecure not getting one

@MijoChbulkan Most of my friends have received LLs, so I’m just the weird friend who applied to a bunch of ivies who will most likely be rejected. Ah, well, there’s always clown college :slight_smile:

@schroscat LLs to Ivies or other schools?

@MijoChbulkan Ivies! But, then again, my friends are super geniuses who deserve the entire world…so I’m not surprised.

@schroscat Hey congrats to them! None of my friends applied to ivies so I’m okay in that regard. It would be hard not to get jealous even if you love them, you know?

@MijoChbulkan I just wish I could live vicariously in their dorm closets sometimes…I will learn the information via osmosis.

@schroscat I actually think that is a real thing. If your friends are smart and get good grades, eventually you will also do well. I’ve seen it happen to a few people

@MijoChbulkan I hope so! I just need to next 23 days to go by quickly…the stress is getting to me.

@schroscat don’t stress. it’s useless honestly

@MijoChbulkan My main talent IS stressing. Been an over-achiever since the first grade!

@schroscat My main talent is staying calm lol. It’s gotten me through thus far
