<p>For most of the schools I've seen, the deadline of January 15th has already passed. So what's everyone doing waiting for M10 to come around? I saw a thread like this last year and it was interesting to hear what people say, especially during the first few days of March. What's everyone thinking?</p>
<p>Well I am basically freaking out until M10. Sooo much anticipation…</p>
<p>I’m thinking, Thank goodness applications are over!!</p>
<p>Me too. But at the same time, I feel terribly anxious now that I have no more control over my application… Finals are soon, so that will get my mind off of M10 for a bit, if that helps.</p>
<p>Even though I’ll still think of BS like every waking moment.</p>
<p>To be honest, I’m probably going to forget until like march 3rd. Then I’m gonna be freaking out!</p>
<p>You’re lucky. I cannot push it out of my head. It sits in that corner, lurking, popping up at inopportune times…</p>
<p>In the mean time, will the AO call/contact the applicants or the recommenders?</p>
<p>Wow, I think if you just forget about it, you won’t worry yourself crazy! The time will fly by.</p>
<p>Hopefully. But since so much rides upon the process this year, can’t get it all the way out of my head.</p>
<p>understandable.</p>
<p>Haha, yeah, this is probably what college will be like. So college will be my third year stressing about acceptances and what not. <em>Sigh</em></p>
<p>I have a countdown on my phone until M10! I’m so anxious.</p>
<p>@myenglish So do I. And, as a response to my own question, I’m probably going to read every section of every school’s webpage that I’m applying to. I did that last year, but with more schools, I’ve got some more reading to do!</p>
<p>I do like to read the websites to because it makes me feel closer to the schools. Plus it’s something to keep me busy!</p>
<p>Last year, over this period of time, my sax skills improved a lot because when I wasn’t reading the schools’ pages, I was practicing the sax to keep my mind off M10</p>
<p>That would be a good idea… I do have band tomorrow…</p>
<p>Last year, I was keeping tallies in every notebook of mine of how many days until M10. One day, near the beginning of March, when I had around sixty tallies, a friend asked me what they were for. I said that they were the number of fights I got into over the last month. Our super-strict librarian was passing by and started yelling at me. Imagine a really cranky old lady saying, “Young man! Do not joke about serious matter like that! I have every right to send you to the principal’s office for such a horrible statement! You should be ashamed of yourself!” and etc.</p>
<p>Haha, yeah, EC’s do get your mind off of this stuff, even though it never leaves.</p>
<p>You know what? I told myself I would forget about, but I can’t stop! I am going insane. I even wrote a practice Facebook status for a possible admission (did not post it of course)! I even am pretending to react to an acceptance or rejection. I need to stop hahahahahaha… Oh Lord, help me.</p>
