General Comments:
I'm elated at the prospect of joining MIT next year!</p>
<p>why'd u make this so earlyyyy?</p>
<p>Hehe, this is funny, though. Freaks. ;)
I would prefer the red colour instead of blue in the case of being denied, though. And a yellow for deferred, maybe?</p>
<p>Please don't clog this tread with comments and responses--only decisions. That way anyone who wants to read about actual decisions can find them quickly, without browsing through pages of irrelevent comments. </p>
<p>Also, I know this is extremely early. But, due to demand on the EA Roster, I've added the thread early. In any event, based on Matt's blog, MIT should be mailing decisions around December 9th.</p>
<p>couple things...u should add Major Awards/Extracurriculars into the little stats thing...and this thread is bound to get clogged by the time the first decisions arrive, so how abt when someone gets a decision, they start a new thread, and we'll make that the official one</p>
<p>I'd agree with that.</p>
<p>Blue should be Admit. Yellow is Defer. and Red is rejected. Sounds like a plan.</p>

<p>I don't know, but I find this part silly. You can't judge your teacher/counselor recs and essays. In fact, you can't do anything subjective, such as rate your ECs (and even then, everything is taken in context.) I believe 70% of all MIT applicants are qualified, so wouldn't just location/person make more sense? It'd also be a lot easier.</p>
<p>Sorry zking786, but you know CC-MIT is not going to sit around and watch a thread like this sink to the bottom for ten days. Better wait til the 10th >_></p>
<p>i didn't even read my teacher recs...</p>
<p>me neither...i mean one of my teachers just told me some of the stuff he said, but i never read the actual recs. how many of you did read them? whatd they say?</p>
<p>this thread....</p>
<p>i like</p>
<p>Sigur Ros is good to listen to while making decisions.</p>
<p>What sucks is that MIT is probably going to mail out decisions on Friday. With that weekend in the way, some people will probably get it Saturday, most others Monday, some Tuesday, and for people like me in almost the most Southwestern part of the US, WEDNESDAY :(</p>
<p>Friday as in this friday??? Holy ****!</p>
<p>vu<em>preuss</em>06, don't despair: some people in CA had their decisions last year on the Monday after mailing. It's possible...</p>
<p>salank310:
I'll add the recommended sections around when decisions come out--that way I can incorporate many suggestions in one post. </p>
<p>zoogies:
I agree with you partly about the subjective nature of part of the form. I must have been misleading in my example. Actually, I meant for applicants to provide concrete examples. For example, what they wrote in their essays, what their recommendations revealed, etc. I understand many people might not have seen their recommendations. As a result, I'd advise these people to leave these fields blank. I acknowledge I was vague, if not misleading, in my example.</p>
<p>Spartan Pho3nix:
The colors are easlily alterable, in the source one can modify the color blue to reflect the color of one's choice. I'd assume people should be able to modify the color appropriately. In any event, I agree with your color suggestion (accept = blue, reject = red, and defer = yellow)</p>
<p>Ahhh...
this thread is making me nervous...
no denying the inevitable, though.</p>
<p>Good luck everyone.</p>
<p>do schools ever make mistakes when they mail out decisions?
what if someone who was supposed to get rejected got an acceptance envelope by mistake?</p>
<p>it's bound to happen, right?</p>

Nope. That's why everything is checked and triple checked and re-reviewed before it's sent.</p>
<p>i hope i get an acceptance letter!</p>
