<p>please click the "i reject the admission offer" link or whatever as soon as you are sure you are not attending. this will give lots of people such as me, a better chance during the appeals process. thank you very much. </p>
<p>much love</p>
<p>i did, just now, and just for you ;) </p>
<p>i wish you much luck in your appeal!! ^_^</p>
<p>i have just declined.</p>
<p>but i don't know how that will affect any appeals. </p>
<p>good luck anyway!</p>
<p>Unfortunately, a person declining their offer of admissions will have no bearing on your appeals result. Good luck though!</p>
<p>They already have a good prediction of the number of students would would decline their admission offer. It's all calculated already.</p>
<p>yea im pretty sure they do calculate it, but i guess to physically have numbers that have turned down the offer holds more significance than an estimation, or so i would hope.</p>
<p>It's not sure or not sure, they definitely calculated it, or else they wouldn't have admitted ten thousand something students for a target class size of 4600. But I know what you mean.</p>
<p>jesus, why do u even make threads like this...its not going to effect your appeal chances whatsoever.</p>
<p>jesus, why do you even make REPLYS to threads like this. stop talking out of your a55 and basing statments off of thin air.</p>
<p>forget it. i was thinking of appealing to berkeley but it'll be a total waste of time...unless you have some shocking new, life-changing information to offer them, it's not going to work.</p>
<p>Truly, the pragmatic behests of a mad capitalist. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>1.) became ebay power seller,
2.) became president of club with 400 members
3.) special family cirumstances
4.) immigration/ family hardships never addressed in personal statment.</p>
<p>i guess my information is KINDA significant =/</p>
<p>that stuff will increase your chances from 5% (totally random) to maybe about 25%. that's 4 to 1. if you're a poker nerd, that's like drawing to a flush on the turn.</p>
<p>but then again, that figure came out of my "a55". your appeal might increase your chances to as high as 40%. but no amount of people rejecting their admissions offers will increase your chances at all.</p>
<p>wow. lots of mind boggling random numbers that almost seemed comforting. thanks i guess?</p>
<p>Yea, I don't think dan's numbers are very accurate. Appeal rates are never that high.</p>
<p>25% translates to 3-1, noob. :)</p>
<p>f...you're right, jackie.</p>
<p>it's been a long time since my last game. i lost interest after realizing i was terrible at poker. ;)</p>
