<p>Hey guys, I can’t believe I actually never posted my results. I got in at Ojai! But I’m still waiting for Clarks.</p>

<p>I got into ojai… rats… i cant go, it sounds soooo awwsome…
i got into MITES!!! im so ecstatic… i cant believe it… i wish i could go to both but its MIT in the summer… i cant say no to that… lol
good luck, and for all of you on the waitlist: THERE IS HOPE… one of you is getting my spot.</p>

<p>@ drosophyllum, YAY!!! Congrats for you getting into MITES! and YAY for an open slot for us waitlisters :slight_smile: I got into YESS, so at least I have a spiffy back up now too (:</p>

<p>wow! YESS! I mean appart from being half as long, its slightly more competitive than mites:
4% acceptance rate</p>

<p>plus it opens up a chance at caltech, in sunny california… spending a summer there must be real nice</p>

<p>thanks drosophyllum :), I’m pretty excited about it</p>

<p>Wow just found out three people made ojai from my school:O
One of them (not me) got rejected then got another letter saying that they had read his app too quickly and had reconsidered. Weird and awesome stuff!</p>

<p>wow, that is really cool :)</p>

<p>LOL!! really?? so you all want to join the facebook group?

<p>Yea two of us are in already and I told the third to join</p>

<p>drosophyllum, you like carnivorous plants too? I’ve never had a drosophyllum, but I do have a darlingtonia in my backyard.</p>

<p>wow bks, if you dont mind, what school out there is so ownage that it gets 3 people into ssp?</p>

<p>TJ, just accept that the Ojai FB group will never be as good as the Socorro one ;)</p>

<p>cmon ojai lets own socorro’s fb group!</p>

<p>just wondering - any of you guys doing anything else before SSP?
ISEF, etc.</p>

<p>before? or after?
I might do ISEF, etc. this fall…so after SSP…
what is there to do before?</p>

<p>well ISEF (Reno) is coming up in May</p>

<p>oh nah, I’m doing it next year</p>

<p>oh haha I got rejected by SSP but I’m attending ISEF in Reno! The result for both application came on the same day, so ISEF sort of eased my rejected feelings…</p>
