<p>Well as this is a countdown thread: 760 minutes left and counting...</p>
<p>645 minutes</p>
<p>it comes out at quite a good time in the UK- 10pm, which does mean if I get in (which I won't) I can immeiately go and hit the clubs!</p>
<p>Good luck from the Stanford board!!! :)</p>
<p>Good luck all! My twin's one amongst you (shrivats), so I'm well acquainted with prevalent emotions at this time. :)</p>
<p>About six hours to go, if I'm not mistaken.</p>
<p>Hey, k_twin and shrivats, I'm a twin too!</p>
<p>However, we both applied to Harvard, and are both here now (we didn't mean for it to happen- in fact, we're sick of each other :) ). Is there a reason you decided to apply to different schools?</p>
<p>well we're at about 1400 hours on the day of reckoning...</p>
<p>t minus 14400</p>
<p>Good luck all...</p>
<p>Hey Admiral, never knew that. Does give the both of us hope with regard to our own apps, in that twins can and do get into the top schools. For us it wasn't really a conscious decision, more a sort of serendipitous divergence in which essays we liked. I found the Common App essays far easier to write, while he felt an affinity to the Stanford ones, so we decided to work on those first. And well, we're international applicants, and as we're twins, we would need some financial aid, so EA Colleges seemed to be the way to go. </p>
<p>That really was the only reason for us applying to different colleges early. I'll be applying to Stanford under RA, as will my brother to Harvard, so we will end up applying on the whole to the same bunch of colleges (He's applying to UChicago, I'm not, I'm applying to JHU, he's not). As regards going to the same college, well getting in to these colleges as international male applicants from South Asia would be enough of an accomplishment, so we're not exactly going to be churlish enough to reject a college simple because we both got in. :) But that's all hypothetical till about 160 minutes in the future, so I'll just get back to watching the clock. :)</p>
<p>Good luck guys! :)</p>
<p>Gracias!</p>
<p>I am really nervous.</p>
<p>Good Luck Dearies!</p>
<p>You toooo candle! p.s. where did you come up with your name?</p>
<p>t minus 1 hour</p>
<p>I am beginning to freak out. Ahhhhhhhhhhh. Haha. Good luck to us all!</p>
<p>Ah finally life on this thread. I was wondering where all you guys where...</p>
<p>Me, I'm just struggling to keep my eyes open. It's 1:00 am here, my gmail's been through 170 updates and refreshes, and I'm just praying that CC remains operational for the next 2 hours.</p>
<p>I'm dying over here in Romania....23:45....15 mins left...aaaaaaaah!!!:( I hope they'll be punctual...I can't handle the stress</p>
<p>And with 2 minutes left, CC begins to crash. Wouldn't you know it.... :)</p>
<p>Thought of the name on a whim, actually. :D</p>
