Oh, great, what have I begun? Don’t apply to schools you don’t want to go to. If you are really into a certain school, don’t not apply because you think it’s too big of a reach. Unless it’s Caltech, they seriously won’t let you in unless you fit the academic profile. Or if the application fee means giving up hot meals for a week.</p>
<p>why was my thread flagged lol??? this is the same thing!</p>
<p>… yours was flagged? that’s strange, this one has way more arrogance and would tend to **** a lot more people off than yours. Kinda stupid imo</p>
<p>O yea, and I might be a few pages too late to defend myself on this one, but to totally discount luck on admissions is ridiculous. The sad truth is, just because you deserve to get in doesn’t mean you will. Why do you think some people get accepted to more competitive colleges and rejected to lesser ones? The only non-safety school I was accepted to had one of the lowest acceptance rates in the country(USNA) and it is the most prestigious of the ones I applied to. Luck is a factor in admissions, whether you want to accept it or not.</p>
<p>not flagged, like reported, but people immediately flipped out and got really really rude.</p>
<p>well look at this thread…people also got rude immediately…so i had to be rude back.</p>

<p>Posting in this thread feels like bad karma - but remember - our fates have been decided a long time ago by a faceless admissions committee.</p>

<p>You “had” to be? People will not care what Ivy you’re from if that’s the essence of your moral character.</p>
<p>“Posting in this thread feels like bad karma - but remember - our fates have been decided a long time ago by a faceless admissions committee.”</p>
<p>Well, true, but remember Schrodinger’s cat. Since I haven’t gotten an email, I am currently about 08% in, 92% rejected from Stanford, which is kind of an awkward position. Which body parts will they let enroll? </p>
<p>I am in this club–luckily–though I foresee not for much longer (the whole Stanford thing). But, yeah, college admissions are really, really luck based. It just depends on what the school’s looking for that year, and that’s based on luck…</p>
