<p>lol some people are getting worked up a select few got to know they were accepted early, followed by an email. Everyone else got an email only, whether or not they were accepted.</p>
<p>So, do you mean that acceptees may or may not receive a phone call before April 13th?</p>
<p>hopefully it will happen again</p>
<p>Yeah, on last year’s thread some kids found out a few days early, but kids were finding out all the way up until the acceptance date.</p>
<p>Does anyone know who directs this program? Is it still Dr. Utz?</p>
<p>Any seniors applying? I decided to apply just for the heck of it because my college essays pretty much fit their prompts lol</p>
<p>I sent my first SAT scores to the email address on the website. It was the March one and i sent it in the morning i got it. But i haven’t got a confirmation email that they got my email…</p>
<p>Does that mean they don’t care about SAT scores at that point(March 29) or do they normally not reply at all?</p>
<p>look above in thread you may have shot urself in the foot</p>
<p>@ busterbeetle whats the prompts for stanford?</p>
<p>it specifically says in the word document</p>
<p>• Announcement of accepted students (APRIL 13, 2012): We will email all students by April 13, 2012 regarding the status of their application. As a courtesy, please DO NOT call or email us regarding the status of your application prior to that date and please do not ask for a second review. If you do not receive an email by mid- April, please email us:</p>
<p>But I have an important update, because i’ve never taken the SAT before and they recommend that we submit our SAT scores</p>
<p>and yes i have read the thread above before i wrote my post
it seems like a lot of people are misguided in a way that ANY email sent to SIMR is considered rude or intrusive, which is complete not true.</p>
<p>i guess at that point it would matter what ur score was if it was really good ( remember the competition–2400s were rejected ) then it may not harm u. but they probably already have gone through the maj of applications and rejected the maj of us…</p>
<p>Exactly 1 more week guys! I’m kinda flipping out here.</p>
<p>I actually have a pretty significant update, but I haven’t emailed SIMR because I didn’t want to get kicked. So… should I email them?</p>
<p>“whats the prompts for stanford?”</p>
<p>@Sharingan100:
there were quite a few short takes (which books were your fav., what events you liked most during the last 2 years etc).
The short essays were: What matters to you most and why, Write a letter to your roommate, and Reflect on an idea or experience that has been important to your intellectual development. To all Stanford class of 2017 applicants on this thread: START YOUR ESSAYS EARLY!!! This is the first time you write essays of this type and will take several tries to get it right.</p>
<p>Thank You this helps a lot as I suck at essays. I tried looking at the application, but I wasn’t able to :(</p>
<p>Yea Stanford’s common app doesn’t go public until August I believe. But this might be helpful: [Essays</a> : Stanford University](<a href=“Page Not Found : Stanford University”>Page Not Found : Stanford University)</p>
<p>Any ideas about what to talk about for the letter to the roommate one? Just what kind of person you are? The stuff you are interested in? A very interesting anecdote about your summer doing research in stanford (lol, I hope that’s what mine is about)?</p>
<p>it really is a relief when u see people having the same problems as u :)</p>
<p>^I SO AGREE. You guys were such a lifeline during that long Jackson wait.</p>
<p>Sorry for sounding ignorant but what are you talking you?</p>
