The Distraction Thread

<p>So, it seems that a lot of us are becoming either stressed out, hyped, or generally just too preoccupied with the fact the March 10th is coming up. I think it's time we have a thread to either get our minds off of decision day or a thread to just rant about whatever we want. So speak your mind.</p>

<p>I'm also curious what everyone's first choices are as well.</p>

<p>You mean you haven’t been totally distracted by Linsanity???</p>

<p>Lol, linsanity… my mom is totally linsane.</p>

<p>Helloel, will you post ur stats on the decision thread after march 10th? I will if I get accepted, won’t if I don’t because I may still be using cc for the next year if i decide to reapply.</p>

<p>Yeah I definitely will! I won’t be reapplying.</p>

<p>Hah and no I haven’t been distracted by linsanity.</p>

<p>Hmm, I actually think I won’t be reapplying either. I’m planning on doing a SUPER SUPER time consuming activity next year if I don’t get in. Plus, I’m kind of paranoid if I posted my stats, if someone would recognize me. But I don’t know. Linsanity- I have a feeling it’s going to die out. Sure, he’s a phenomenon, but it’s only been about a week.</p>

<p>Oh, yeah. I might not post in depth stats. Just my grades, scores, and some ECs.</p>

<p>LINSANITY!!! Are you serious? I’m totally linspired!.. there’s a lot of personal elements that go into that, but even if I weren’t a fan from the way-pre-NY days, he has a real knack for, well, very dramatic distraction. And yeah, there have been a handful of such phenoms before, but when somebody plays for something different- a love of the game- perhaps the outcome will be different as well.</p>

<p>I don’t feel too comfortable about posting all my stats, but I will, regardless of admission decisions, because others’ have helped me so. I’ll just be selective.</p>

<p>excuse me, but what’s “linsanity”?
and yes, i will be posting my stats. I did last year and I will again.</p>

<p>I’m almost certain that I will be posting my stats on the decision thread (even if I get rejected at all of my schools). I was very open and honest through this whole process (I posted my far below par grades and standardized test scores). Furthermore, I will be just as honest and candid when M10 rolls around and it is time to share the admission decisions. The decision thread really provided me with a lot of insight about the admissions process. It made me realize how selective and competitive these schools really are. It gave me a sense of which schools may possibly be out of my reach and which schools I may have a better shot at. I think that thread will be very helpful to next year’s applicants.</p>

<p>I swear, they’re coming up with new words with Lin in them every hour. ‘To Linfinity and Beyond!’ ‘Linspirational!’</p>

<p>I seriously did not know that there were so many -in words. “All we do is lin, lin, lin!” (win) They’re doing a pretty good job of translating it overseas too, IMO- in his country, 林來瘋… and I’ve heard 'Lin de si</p>
