<p>Man, seriously, you guys are boring and lifeless as hell. We, the class of 2015, were so active all the time. Anyway, I really hope you all well, and honestly I’m sort of intimidated. I feel like your class is much smarter than the class of 2015, i.e my class, but meh. I hope to Allah you all end up where you want. Aameen. Did anyone apply to UCLA by any chance? I’m a first year [class of 2015 obviously] ,from Islamabad, there right now.</p>
<p>are you an American citizen?</p>
<p>^looks like it. Either that or a really rich Pakistani :P</p>
<p>So anyone apply to Carnegie Mellon, Cornell, or Southern California here?</p>
<p>@blue & titan, yep He’s a US citizen and he didn’t apply for FA either :D</p>
<p>@gtfotu: I went through last year’s thread, and yeah it WAS pretty lively…but I guess we’ll catch up when decisions come around (yep, we’re a competitive lot LOL XD)
Btw speaking of acceptances, I have a friend here who got accepted to Warwick and Nottingham, rejected from UCL and Cambridge though
And last year there were very few Ivy acceptances! Very discouraging, and that truly gave me an idea of how slim my chances are!</p>
<p>But then again, how many Pakis do you think are accepted to the ivies each year. Anyone got any statistics or college demographic info?</p>
<p>Harvard and Yale around 4-5 … Princeton 1-2 … Brown 1-3 … Dartmouth 5-6 … Penn and Cornell 8-9 … Columbia 1-3 … just a rough estimate</p>
<p>Wow! That low! Any idea how many apply?</p>
<p>TiTaN666’s list is fairly accurate, but, in my experience, the following is more true:</p>
<p>Harvard: 3-6
Yale: 5-8
Princeton:1-3
Columbia: 2-5
Penn: 4-9
Dartmouth: 3-4
Brown: 1-3
Cornell: 10-12
MIT: 3-4 [often, but not always, only accepts US citizens who don’t get in anywhere else]
Stanford: 7-9
Duke: 5-7
UChicago: 4-6</p>

<p>Two students from Islamabad received likely letters from Harvard College. Yes, you read it right. This is history in teh making.</p>
<p>We do not intend to disclose any information regarding the recipients–further probing is fruitless.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Really? That’s awesome.</p>
<p>Who got it? What were their credentials?</p>
<p>^^Obvious ■■■■■ is obvious.</p>
<p>@Iamanapp
maybe I am wrong,but according to my count, last year 7 people got into Harvard.Though,last year’s thread showed only 5.</p>

<p>Did anyone apply to Davidson College?</p>
<p>@Glaedr they are calling the likely letter an acceptance letter? That’s something.</p>
<p>woho … likely letter O.o ?</p>
<p>Which university has a better reputation for engineering…McGill or University of Manchester?</p>
<p>Yes, I am an American citizen lekin Pakistan ka pala hua hoon. I don’t understand why you said “looks like it” in reference to me being an American citizen though. I don’t get how I can “look” like an American citizen by a post I made. I’m as much Pakistani as any other kid born and bred there - only American by paper. Anyway, being a citizen doesn’t really make a difference - that is the sad truth. I learnt of this when I started applying. It only makes a difference if you are a resident. Since, I was not a resident, they treated me like not like an international applicant [because technically I wasn’t international] but as an “out-of-state” applicant. Basically, it’s the same thing as an international applicant except not really because by paper and technically I’m not international, but in my case, since I did O-Levels/A-Levels, “out-of-state” held more connotation of “international” than usual. So, essentially, yes, I am international. Unless, you’re not a resident, it really doesn’t matter.</p>
<p>Wrong, Harvard likely letters are only for athletes.</p>
