<p>That’s why I am not looking at my essays again. I know if I reread them, I will find something I don’t like. I spent the entire summer focusing just on my stanford essays. I started mid May and finished my last one mid August. On my computer, there are atleast 20+ essays that I decided not to use for Stanford. And on top of that, each essay probably received a countless amount of editing, especially the ones that were submitted. </p>
<p>@emenya like @mtnclimber said we use the two weeks for new material and review depending on class. But for the most part it’ll be new stuff. I go to 3 classes a day and it alternates days. So today I went to 246 periods and tomorrow I go to 135 periods. It actually works out nicely homework wise ( but amount per class is usually greater). </p>
<p>I’m also a June baby! But I’m just barely a Gemini! </p>
<p>well… fml. i have to memorize all the origins, insertions, and actions of all the muscles in the body for my anatomy test tomorrow… it’s midnight and im halfway through what is life. i can’t even think about anatomy when stanford decisions are lurking around the corner… i honestly dont even know what’s going to happen… im going to cry either way. i just hope decisions come out friday night and not in the middle of the school day on monday because i really dont want to have a mental breakdown in one of my classes</p>
<p>If decisions are released Friday, I’m going to find out in a hotel. I’m going to have to go to the 1st floor bathroom and lock myself in and check. I hate this though, because I don’t get in, I’m going to want to be alone. But since I will be in a hotel, I won’t have that chance! Gosh, this is so crazy. My mind seems to be racing is a thousand different directions! </p>
<p>@imagineer10 that sounds terrible! 
I guess I should be thankful that I have the option to lock myself in my room to be alone after the email comes in…
I just keep thinking about telling people the news, good and bad, and the idea of the latter is sort of crushing my soul.</p>
<p>@ccggp101 if it makes you feel any better, I spelled calculus calculous on my app and had the wrong teacher rec sent to all of my common app schools 
</p>
<p>@mtnclimber
That was my plan: locking myself in my room to be alone. I may or may not have to sneak out of the hotel away from everything and just bite the bullet and check. Because there is no way I can wait until I get home on Monday to check with it sitting in my Email box.</p>
<p>Hi guys!! Longtime lurker on this thread, so nervous for Friday!! Found this when I was stalking Stanford on YouTube… makes me in love with it even more…</p>

<p>I had a plan to ask my brother to open the e-mail for me and tell me the decision. What would suck is if he decided to pull a joke on me and say that I was accepted when I was actually rejected. Of course, it wouldn’t be too bad if it were the other way around…</p>
<p>having the option to lock yourself up sounds like a great idea haha
I’m planning to goto this Christmas recital at 7PM where my little brother will sing a solo 
At least that will cheer me up and jerk me out of my near-comatose state :P</p>

<p>This is really funny. Stanford knows how to make fun of its self. </p>
<p>Locking myself in my room on friday hoping I get the email ASAP. I know there is like a .000001% chance of getting in, but I’m so nervous! I NEED to know </p>
<p>@imagineer10 I have done really well in his class. I am getting my associates as a senior in high school.</p>
<p>Just think, about 42,000 of us are applying to stanford. That’s 42,000 of about 21million rising freshman in the United States, which is about 0.2% of people. So no matter how these results turnout, each and every one of us should be extremely proud to even have the opportunity to be in that.</p>
<p>@CBBoy15 well that’s good! Hopefully that will work out to your advantage.</p>
<p>@imagineer10 Doyou know how many people out of the 42k applied to Stanford REA this year?</p>
<p>@Jmarcin4 They typically don’t release that info until they release the decisions. However, you can find the numbers from last year here: <a href=“Stanford accepts 748 for early admission to Class of 2018”>http://www.stanforddaily.com/2013/12/14/stanford-accepts-748-for-early-admission-to-class-of-2018/</a></p>
<p>@Jmarcin4
Yeah, they don’t release that until after decisions have been announced. I am getting all of my numbers from last year’s common data set. I’m sure they will be pretty similar this year, though.</p>
<p>7500 last year I think, and about 750 were accepted. They defer somewhere around that number, so about 80% is rejected.</p>
<p>7,000 applicants.
750 accepted.
550-600 deferred.</p>
<p>I had a dream last night that I got accepted, hopefully that is a good sign.</p>
