Thoughts After Getting Deferred

[omarish]

<p>Well, I was deferred.</p>

<p>I called at 9:05, the phone call was quick. Not painless.</p>

<p>Honestly, I was expecting that Virginia would be one of the two states that hadn't received their tubes yet. People kept telling me how I have a strong resume and why I should get acctped.</p>

<p>Maybe if I had been smarter and gotten higher SATs and done more research, I could have been accepted EA. That would have been nice. Yeah, I'm a little bit disappointed, but that's not gonna do me any good.</p>

<p>I'll just step things up and finish my applications today.</p>

<p>So for those of you who are deferred, remember: MIT accepts 75% of their applicants during RD. </p>

<p>We still have great chances.</p>

<p>This is not the end.</p>

<p>And for those of you who need music:</p>

<p>4 strings - free
lemon jelly - space walk
telepopmusik - mathematics</p>

<p>Take this as an opportunity to become stronger.</p>

<p>It took a while because I called too early, but the answer was quick. I'll probably post in this thread later, but I'm just emotionless. Bittersweet, I guess. Good luck to everyone.</p>

<p>Honestly, I'm beyond disapointed. I knew what the odds were of getting deferred. Yet for some reason, I honestly hoped and believed I would get in. No such luck. Well, perhaps this is just fate at work.</p>

<p>Good luck everyone in RD.</p>
