<p>Silverturtle is NOT a ■■■■■. I, along with members who have ever clicked on the SAT forum, can fully testify to that.</p>
<p>He is making it obvious that it is his safety.</p>
<p>If you have been on CC for any length of time you would know that Silverturtle is one of the most respected contributors to this site. </p>
<p>On a sidenote - Silverturtle so sad to read about Yale deferral, you will achieve greatness I am sure.</p>
<p>Btw, for those of you accepted, did you check the mail yet? The Illinois website said that people who got accepted should receive letters in the mail.</p>
<p>@timxie- its ok! only 2 more months till feb 18th…at least its not in april like a lot of other schools</p>
<p>Logged on to illinois.edu and it recognized mobile device. Clicked on aplication status link then logged in and decision came up. Still haven’t got in on computer.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Silverturtle…if those stats are true, pretty impressive but clearly Stanford, CalTech and MIT are waiting on you!</p>
<p>@SLightManifesto Good luck dude!</p>
<p>Okay that’s what I thought ><
So far nothing… I’ve been trying for almost 40 minutes now…
thanks anyways though :)</p>
<p>I thought Silverturtle had helped others reading essays…A good guy.</p>
<p>@ViLLZi…sigh…my whole holiday got ruined…</p>
<p>Just a last note before I celebrate: I was quite happy when I got in. Then I saw this kid who posted that he has a 2400, perfect GPA and a ridiculous amount of 5’s. My self confidence immediately plummeted and my dick inverted. It is like a high level gamer going to a lower level zone and pooping on less developed players. It is good that he got accepted, but I feel like not everyone has to know that his SAT’s are 400 points higher than the majority of the people here.</p>
<p>Farewell</p>
<p>Any OOS get their results? My computer is freakin freezing when I enter that webpage.</p>
<p>Ok now it’s ready lol</p>
