The Official M10 2019 Freakout Thread

@CavsFan2003 Most likely.
And about posters - I’ll try to draw them, maybe a copy of Delacroix. I’ll also make a giant bee out of duct tape on the wall - for some reason, every place that I’ve lived in is famous for bees.

Hey guys, what’s your dream school? What did you write your essays about?

Are folks sure that Exeter and the other schools FedEx’ed/UPS’ed all the acceptance decisions today and no more are forthcoming? That’s an awful lot of packing and sorting to do!

I just signed up for the UPS MyChoice for both me and my student, but have no idea whether it will track packages already in transit when we just signed up today.

Anyway, best of luck to all.

@sonyashijin My dream school is either Andover or Choate.

I wrote my main Hotchkiss essay about nuclear weapons, Andover about Marvel, Exeter about Taco Bell and moving homes, Choate about standing up for a kid I hated, Loomis Chaffee about being funny and attractive (in a joking way), NMH, Lawrence, Ethel Walker, and something else about seeing my mom almost dead, SMS about Alexander Hamilton, and Concord about using classical conditioning to make my kids like Fleetwood Mac.

@ThatScorpio That’s probably right cuz I didn’t get anything from Kent but they already sent out all acceptances. (Or maybe they just didn‘t send out anything for others.

@sparkatzz I am. I applied to it because someone on CC told me an all-girls school for FTM works out fine, an I heard good things about it.

OH! And Groton I talked about bravery and good humor.

@sonyashijin My dream school is Exeter.

For PEA I wrote about losing student council elections and persuading my classmates to join a quizbowl team. For PA, I wrote about thinking thoughts about the Bayeux tapestry.

@CavsFan2003 Wow, you’ve got really creative topics!

Speaking of FtM, my facial hair is growing in… I had to shave today!

my dream school is Choate & I wrote my main essay on my experience volunteering at a program for children with a disease with no cure

@CavsFan2003 OMG your topics are all so interesting ahhh

@CavsFan2003 Didn’t you recently start on T? That was fast!

@ilovechoateeeee I hope! Too bad my writing itself sucks

@YoungThriver I did! It’s not a lot of hair (more akin to peachfuzz) but I feel so manly

Aghhhhh I didn’t sign up for anything so i guess tomorrow will be special

I signed up for everything I could find and they all said zero packages…
Tomorrow will be quite special.

@ThatScorpio A lot of schools don’t mail on M9!

I tried signing up for FedEx’s and they said “my information was unverifiable”. Tried USPS and they said they couldn’t verify me unless I went in-store. UPS worked but I still have nothing. OOF.

I didn’t get any notifications or emails…
Ominous music playing in the background

@baronofunk What schools did you apply to?

Did anyone else get that Hotchkiss email? They apologized to me but now I’m curious whether that was a widespread issue or not

@CavsFan2003 when do they mail?
