<p>lol dont wanna think about it till the moment I got my potential rejection letter.. But I will be extremely happy if the moment never comes. oh wells at least I will only need to do 3 more applications for my reach schools, as I am guaranteed a spot in my match school U of Toronto.</p>
<p>I would try to convice myself (perhaps throught a long argument) that being rejected from Cornell was probably for the best..................... but I have no clue how that will work out!</p>
<p>I'm not applying ED, but just to let y'all know, here is what I would do:</p>
<ol>
<li>First curse Cornell for not letting me in</li>
<li>Take an egotistical attitude (I'm too good for Cornell)</li>
<li>Take a Cornell sweatshirt, soak in gasoline, hoist upon a large stick, and ignite</li>
<li>Take a large stuffed animal from the store, put a Cornell sweatshirt and hat on it, hoist it upon a stick, soak in gasoline, and ignite</li>
<li>Take the Cornell logo, paint it on the wall, and then take a sledgehammer and break it all up</li>
<li>Make a brick wall in a parking lot, paint the Cornell logo on it, and drive my car through it at 60 miles an hour</li>
<li>Make a rap song about how Cornell is the laughing stock of the Ivy league, even though it isn't</li>
</ol>
<p>If I get rejected, it helps make my favorite school look better. I don't mean that in an egotistical way, I mean that I'd just be even more impressed by how competitive and insane its admissions is. </p>
<p>I'd try to find out why I was rejected. If there was something retarded that I did with my application, then I'd want to know for my RD schools. </p>
<p>Then I'd bang my head on the wall, of course. Start applications, call all of my friends. I'd only cry, though, if I got accepted.</p>
<p>I would be really humiliated if rejected early. I would fear the disappointment and anxiety of my parents and school but wouldn't worry too much personally (since there are 9 other schools on my list).</p>
<p>Go through the 5 stages of grief:
Denial
ANger
Bargaining -(I will do anything you ask, just let me in!)
Depression
Acceptance (Once you reach acceptance you do not revert back to earlier stages).</p>
