<p>So over the last two days at my school loads of kids have been finding out that they got into their respective schools ED. These people are my friends, and I’m as excited as any friend would be when their friend gets into their top choice. Collectively, however, when I look at all these people who know where they’re going to school before I do and who may get into their first choice school when I do not, I hate and resent them. Feel so happy for the individuals, but hate the group. </p>
<p>the majority of people at my school find out on monday.....the 16th is going to a pretty depressing day around school i think....or maybe surprisingly exciting</p>
<p>You know a funny feeling i have been feeling? the first day i applied ED way back in october, my confidence was sky high. I was incredibly confident i would be accepted and i was gonna be so happy. But as the days wore on, my confidence dropped ever so slightly to where now, my confidence is in the negatives. haha. </p>
<p>Its weird how we psych ourselves out. its weird, and i hate it.</p>
<p>monday may be a depressing day, but lets hope not for us...</p>
<p>I would have loved to know today....that is true. This waiting game isbad for my schoolwork. it makes it so i can't focus at all.
so ya...online would be amazing</p>
<p>I wonder if admissions officers would be willing to give 'sneak previews' if they were to be called and asked. I don't know if I would do it (ba-caw) but I doubt it could hurt. What are they going to do? Call up the postal service and say to throw one of the acceptance letters out because the kid called in? I think not.</p>
<p>Well now it wouldn't matter much now
unless the admissions people are in their offices on a saturday which I would be kinda skeptical about.
I would be too scared...haha
and talk about an awkward conversation if you got rejected...haha</p>
<p>skyvault42, I feel EXACTLY the same way. I was so confident when I submitted my app and now that I may find out today or Monday, I am so convinced I won't get it.</p>
<p>Anyway, I just came over to wish you all luck from the Barnard board!</p>
<p>Guys, don't worry. Time will go by, and all will be well. Two years ago, my D was deferred early action from an Ivy. So, she had to wait until April 1. ALL the rest of her friends heard in December, either ED or EA, and they were all accepted somewhere. D heard only about the deferral. She was the very last one in her group to be accepted (to 5 schools, including another Ivy-- where she currently is) and the wait became just a bad memory. It is hard, but in a couple of days, your lives will get back to normal for a little while, and then all of a sudden the winter will be over, and the RD acceptances will start rolling in. Hang in there!</p>
<p>...And then there are people like me who just decided to do RD to all their schools (because I'm indecisive and like all of them too much to do ED to any one of them) and are now regretting it because other people have GOTTEN IN and I haven't even sent out all my stuff yet... :( </p>
<p>But good luck to all of you! I really hope you get in, and soon!</p>
<p>I am getting stressed more and more each day because pressure is kidna pilling up on me. People keep asking me about it...and then i say im not sure yet...then they just say oh well youre going to get in. dont even worry. people just expect me to.
so now if i dnt...talk about a shame</p>
<p>im guessing tuesday aswell...there was a big storm in maine on thursday night/friday morning....yikes
things might have gotten slowed down a bit</p>
