<p>Lmao that was a beautiful joke!</p>
<p>No ED here too…
I think I have a really low chance of getting in because of poor EC & no one from my school ever got into UChicago. Our school has a short history but still… Maybe there’s something about my school that UC doesn’t like or something <_<</p>
<p>great jokes @carter001 and @EnoughNerve! …i burst out a couple random chuckles ^.^</p>
<p>as chances go, i think have a 25% chance of acceptance, 70% deferral, and 5% rejection. i don’t think anything on my app would cause outright rejection. i don’t have super great ECs or any major awards. 2 of my essays were rushed and they’re most likely not what uchic admissions officers are looking for. i also didn’t interview…stoopid me >.<</p>
<p>didn’t ED anywhere, just EA’d to a bunch of safeties/matches and 2 reaches</p>
<p>only 5.5 days left of waiting!!!</p>
<p>I didn’t ed anywhere either. If UChicago accepts me I would definitely go. </p>
<p>Can’t wait for the decision…</p>
<p>I also ED-ed Columbia apart from EAing UChicago but was rejected from Columbia, so now I can only put my mere hopes on UChicago. Who else faces the same situation?
Does anyone know around when will the results of UChicago be out, btw?</p>
<p>@havealilfaith
They said that it’ll be out on the 18th, late afternoon.
You’ll definitely get in :)</p>
<p>@havealilfaith Remember me from Columbia ED? Got rejecteeed 
In retrospect, light blue is a terrible color on me anyway. I actually think I’m a much better fit for Uchicago anyway since I’m more of a creative person, and I really hope that came across in my Uchicago essays. :)</p>
<p>I feel like everybody I know got into Columbia, Duke and Williams. lol. So frustrating.</p>
<p>No ED here neither, my essays were my strongest points.</p>
<p>@ohhayitsme @angelaxia @impressionistic CONGRATS you guys!! That’s awesome! And @carter001 @enoughnerve I totally laughed at those jokes! 
I didn’t ED anywhere either, UChicago all the way, right?
I would share one of my lame jokes but its a bit dark 
I had decent academics, below par ECs, but my essays were my strong points. Applying for english, so I love writing, and I REALLY enjoyed writing my essays. Well, if I don’t get in, at least I had fun! :D</p>
<p>@yalesoon, sorry I missed tons of messages in the middle, but I loved Sylvia!! I’m a bit obsessed too Started with my love for Ted Hughes’ poetry, and then Plath’s. Have you read the Bell Jar?</p>
<p>4 days 4 hours and 45 minutes, assuming its 4 pm. :’(
Sorry if I’m getting anyone down :(</p>
<p>Did anyone here led a type of scholarly scientific research?</p>
<p>@chic yay bell jar! (in retrospect yay might not be the right word, given the subject matter)</p>
<p>Nope, no research on my part. </p>
<p>I also came to the realization today that I absolutely am not getting in. I just got a bad feeling about my application today, and I know that this isn’t going to go well.</p>
<p>@Omar9714 Yup, I’ve got a couple original genetics/bioengineering research projects under my belt! Are you into research too? :D</p>
<p>@Debater What happened?! D: I know a lot of people, myself included, who feel confident about their chances one minute and terrible the next; did you suddenly find some problem with your application, or do you think it might just be that kind of temporary slump in your confidence? Because I’m sure you’re a wonderful applicant :)</p>
<p>And… I’m so nervous and excited guys! THE TINGLY FEELS</p>
<p>A (hopefully) temporary slump in confidence. </p>
<p>Granted, I’m going on about 2 hours sleep here (because I saw The Hobbit at midnight), so my stress might be getting to me. Maybe I’ll feel content with my chances tomorrow. Who knows?</p>
<p>i’m not confident but it doesn’t matter, it’s up to fate.</p>

<p>^my emotions right now. I literally didn’t do any homework yesterday because I’ve been a ball of anxiety for the last week. Hoping on getting at least 1 decision this weekend to make me feel better…and less scatter-brained for final papers.</p>
<p>@neontissues I’m totally in the same boat! All these nerves have totally hindered me from studying for finals -____-</p>
