Summer Academy for Math and Science (SAMS) & AP/EA @ Carnegie-Mellon?

<p>you'll see why dont u just call in its not worth agonizing and turning your hair gray.</p>

<p>idk...i'm scared...lol</p>

<p>not a minority AND essays sucked =) </p>

<p><em>REJECT ME!</em></p>

<p>I just got accepted and a woman at the office said letters are going out next week.</p>

<p>^what the...eff</p>

<p>nothing for me. and i tried calling but i got the answering machine. hopefully by tomorrow we'll know? this is very agonizing! has anyone received a letter?</p>

<p>twilightmali = troll</p>

<p>so anywho...</p>

<p>err...
i thought i'd be rejected because i rushed my diversity essay in one day, thinking it was due at the first deadline. (march 1st?) the second essay about why i chose the program i did was reused from my CMU AP/EA (non-diversity) application from last year. also, now i have news that i might've actually been accepted to AP/EA and not design, in which case my 2nd essay was completely off topic. ...my writing is not very strong in general, either. :<</p>

<p>my transcript is also littered with poor grades. all of the recommendations i got probably mentioned how quiet/reserved i am in class. because of this, i'm probably not my teachers' favorite student, either. :P furthermore, if they contacted the AP/EA teachers i had last year to ask for their opinion on me, they'd probably say the same. (i'm not very outgoing, no)</p>

<p>...i am full of complaints. i don't know if my post will make those of you waiting feel better or worse (i certainly hope it's not worse), but hey, if i can get in with all of these deficiencies in my application, then so can you! :D goodluckgoodluckgoodluck!</p>

<p>arlington91 what did u apply 4 </p>

<p>thanx poli it made me feel a whole lot better and what did u get accepted to again</p>

<p>poli....u say stats & essay are no good but u been accepted twice..what is your socioeconomic level..just curious.</p>

<p>poli, are u a minority?</p>

<p>because i am bored and i personally know poli, i will answer for her. lol.</p>

<p>shes of middle class (im pretty sure. we live in typical middle class suburbia.) and shes asian which is probably not a minority in this case. and last year she was accepted to the non-diversity program which is not as competitive. </p>

<p>and shes just being modest. her grades are not as dismal as she describes, shes taking a pretty tough course load, and im sure the teachers like her because she is quirky and cool.</p>

<p>I applied to sams but i applied really late, near the middle/end of april</p>

<p>so, how long could take for a letter to get here? i live in the southwest.</p>

<p>aw, that's probably it for the middle-class asians aka me :)</p>

<p>altho idk if im middle class..</p>

<p>congratulations to all of u that made it...i feel that you should all be accepted...just the fact that u're are in this thread and r anxious to spend six weeks learning after spending about 10 months in school is incredible...i know u all have good stats and probably wrote awesome essays..good luck to all of you..i am not a student..i am a mom.</p>

<p>Middle Class, High Class, it doesn't make a difference. </p>

<p>Btw, Narcissa, I thought you were planning on going to HSHSP, after leaving SSP. GRRR O well, at least your departure helped me. lol</p>

<p>I'm going to start a new trend: the email trend =D</p>

<p>For all of you guys that are scared to call, send an email. Who knows how long the mail will come??</p>

<p>i dont understand how they can say they mailed everything last thursday/friday, and yet nobody has received anything</p>

<p>^yeah it seems pretty sketchy to me....</p>

<p>but if arlington got rejected, i probably did too cuz my app was pretty late unfortunately.... and i really hope they don't stalk cc threads like someone suggested...that would be a sure rejection for me if they found me. i'm definitely a lot more open-minded in real life though, and a lot less annoying and nasty and mean and sarcastic...lol.</p>

<p>it's just fun ticking ppl off online, teehee!!</p>

<p>i'm to scared to call so i'm getting my mom to do it. the suspense is killing me</p>
