What to do Now?

<p>Exactly what I’m going through. I have highs, like after interviews, when I tell myself I’m getting in, and then lows, where I’m just like, there’s no way you’re getting in.</p>

<p>god happy to know I am not the only one experiencing these kinds of stuff… i though i was just weird… :stuck_out_tongue:
I am actually sooooo worried and so nervous because i dont have control in my applications anymore. I want to reread my essays and then I dont want to read my essays because i might think that they are not good enough now…
I seriously cannot stop thinking about the schools and the admission process. Its there every single tiiiimee!!!
So, from now on, we should all find sth to occupy ourselves :stuck_out_tongue:
I just got myself into a suicide program :stuck_out_tongue: (a short movie competition in school and it is due on Tuesday. Yeah i am queen of impossibilities XD ) and I have math competitions… like a lot these times so hopefully i will just pause for now and resume the freaking out on March 1st. 10 days would be more than enough XD</p>

<p>Even with my EC’s, I still can’t forget about M10. One day during jazz band, I suddenly started freaking out in the middle of my solo because I remembered M10. My eyes just got wider and I couldn’t think of anything else, including what to play during my solo. I am DYING while waiting for M10 to come. Time purposefully makes itself go slower during these two months</p>

<p>It’s like the universe is ganging up on us.</p>

<p>Universe ganging up on you because you have to wait a couple of months!!! A lot of parents are rolling their eyes right now. :-)</p>

<p>Haha yeah, it’s over dramatic but two insanely long months…</p>

<p>And the universe most definitely is trying to destroy us. But we must stay strong!</p>

<p>Perseverance!!</p>

<p>haha, I experience the highs and lows too. It’s like I’ll wake up one day and be super-confident, but by lunch, I’ll be down in the dumps again. I’ve been counting down the days since January 1st. 52 days left!!!</p>

<p>Exactly!!! Thank God, I’m not alone in this madness!!!</p>

<p>I’ve had those moments too! Great minds think alike, or, in this case, feel alike. And I feel the exact same way. I’m running out of ways to describe what I’m going through. And, as experience tells, the next two months will get worse :(</p>

<p>Yup… Pain is just starting… <em>ominous music starts playing</em></p>

<p>This thread is hilarious! I feel almost weird that I am not nervous for March</p>

<p>I know me to! I feel like I should be nervous, but I’m strangely calm.</p>

<p>Yes! But when I think about Exeter, I feel like dying of excitement!</p>

<p>I get those highs and lows to. I guess I’ve been dependent on the thought that I’m going to get in and then out of the blue I just smacked with the reality of the acceptance rate, my horrible SSAT scores and my chances. It’s so stressful, especially since my parents we not exactly the most supportive, I’ve made every move on my own. I scheduled the interviews, booked hotels, rented cars, bought train tickets, completed my application, and am counting the days down all by myself. It’s so relieving to know I’m not a loner with these mood swings! There are times where I feel so excited and others where I just want to hurl. I just want March 10th to come but I don’t at the same time, you know? I rather be disappointed now than later.</p>

<p>@ccnaf14-After I read that you scheduled the interviews, booked hotels, rented cars, and bought train tickets. I have never been so shocked in my life that someone can do that.I mean, DID YOU REALLY BOOK HOTELS AND RENTAL CARS! WOW! How do you have the guts to do that. You seem really independent. I think that you can get in just be positive and if you are not so sure about your SSAT score, why dont you retake it? Im retaking it February first and if you cant for financial reasons, call one of the schools so they can give you a waiver. All you would have to pay is $40 for the late registration fee</p>

<p>@BHADES - my dad basically gave me his credit card and told me to deal with everything haha. I was booking things left and right, it took me like a week to get it all sorted out because I had to figure out what schools I could make it to and figure out a route and stuff haha. Does Middlesex accept the Feb 1st SSAT? Money isn’t an issue, but I’ve already submitted my scores, would they look at any others I sent?</p>

<p>When I called Hertz the lady was like “ma’am you realize the name on your divers license is a male’s name, correct?” I had to explain it all I’ve never laughed so hard in my life</p>

<p>You can call the school and ask if they accept Feb 1st, I think they will take if considering if your scores were not that good, and they can see your improvement. I sent my scores also to Exeter and Andover and they were terrible. But trust me, I would literally have not been able to sort out the things you did for applications. All I did was my essays and SSAT haha.</p>

<p>Wow. I’m impressed.</p>
