UChicago EA Applicants 2018

<p>Gaaa so saturday night somebody stole my mom’s car battery and last night somebody tried to break into our house (thank god the lock held, but they might come back tonight). Not quite how I pictured the day before the d going…I wish I could just put up a sign saying “all criminals, please withhold break-ins until post-D. Thanks very much, apologies for the inconvenience!”</p>

<p>They did it at 3:30 last year and someone else reported that it should be mid afternoon so around 3:30 would not be unheard of, best bet is before 4, for sure before 5.</p>

<p>Awww I’m sorry wildcat! Best of luck! NU doesn’t know what it’s missing, and Chicago’s been known to accept the students other places wouldn’t and deny students who get into places like Yale. Don’t give up hope, you’re awesome!</p>

<p>Best of luck to everyone!</p>

<p>i’m gonna kms this wait is awful</p>

<p>@nerve I’m sorry to hear about the robberies :confused: but I couldn’t help laughing at the sign idea.</p>

<p>@EnoughNerve ahhh thank youuuu. Good luck!</p>

<p>@Debater1996 - what kind of debate do you do? I debate as well and I know a lot of debaters around the chicago area.</p>

<p>Congress. Which, contrary to what many say, is not a joke.</p>

<p>However, I have a very small team without much capital to go to a lot of tournaments, so it is doubtful that you know me.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone tomorrow! I’m so nervous, especially after my Georgetown deferral I just think my essays are going to sink me. And because I have exams I get out of school at noon, which I would normally love but tomorrow it will just give me ample opportunity to sit and be anxious about the D (I had to say it, I’ve been dying to). So just to be clear, they email us when it’s released, and we can get on our account to look? Or can we just look on our account periodically before we get an email? I know they send emails out in batches, so if we know from others emails have been sent can we go ahead and log in?</p>

<p>I’ve like a 6 hours wait from the end of finals to the fateful moment of decision. This wait will kill me.</p>

<p>@impressionistic i’m planning on periodically checking my portal every half hour starting after 3ish. i’m pretty sure they’ll send an email, but i’ll probably be overanxious and acquire automatic refreshing syndrome or something -_______-</p>

<p>you are your own worst enemy, impressionistic! i think you have a great shot at uchicago, but we shall see tomorrow (20ish hours now!! ahhhh)</p>

<p>i get out at 1, 4 hours of twitchy anxiety for me</p>

<p>Can we start talking about scores now? I think that will make me feel better.</p>

<p>@debater HOWWWWWW does that make one feel better? HOW???</p>

<p>NO SCORES PLEASE I don’t want my self esteem to drop even lower!</p>

<p>Hey guys! also a Uchicago hopeful and really nervous :frowning:
@debater1996, I’m also in congress debate and you’re right. not a joke. so if you ever attend ICDA tournies, I might actually know you!</p>

<p>While we’re all waiting, I thought I’d post a video I found interesting:
[The</a> University of Chicago - A Glance](<a href=“Bobby McFerrin - Don't Worry Be Happy (Official Music Video) - YouTube”>Bobby McFerrin - Don't Worry Be Happy (Official Music Video) - YouTube)</p>

<p>I have a good ACT score, so talking about it makes me feel better. </p>

<p>@Wasian</p>

<p>I can neither confirm nor deny if I go to ICDA, but I might. I’m trying to keep some semblance of privacy on here.</p>

<p>I see a lot of debaters here! Anyone in Model U.N?</p>
