<p>I've seen a lot of my senior friends get into colleges of their dreams..</p>
<p>That's pretty awesome.</p>
<p>I can't wait for my turn.</p>
<p>How have your friends or yourself fared in the college realm?</p>
<p>(Just recently, I've had a couple of friends accepted in UPenn, one accepted into MIT, I'm sure there'll be a Yale acceptance, and I'm not sure if there'll be a Harvard acceptance).</p>
<p>I also hope that my friends who were deferred get in.</p>
<p>My friend got into Upenn. He was ecstatic.</p>
<p>I finally collected all 7 recommendation letters from the mages guilds. This pretty much guarantees my admittance to Arcane University, so I’m sittin’ pretty.</p>
<p>A lot of my friends have gotten into their first choice. I have as well, but I’m wavering in my choice. I have a feeling I’m gonna change my mind.</p>
<p>I have friends getting into Stanford, MIT, Caltech, and Yale. Sigh… It’s so close to our turn!</p>
<p>This entirely gives me a cooler view of my friends.</p>
<p>Even if they all were geniuses lol.</p>
<p>Also had friends get into rice, purdue engineering.</p>
<p>I’m a junior. The coolest thing so far was me and the val winning NMSF lol</p>
<p>lol I’m a junior as well.
I’ve got my RSI app, my chemistry summer app, my MITES app, and my Carnegie Mellon SAMS. app</p>
<p>It’s bittersweet for me. I’m happy that all my friends are getting into the schools they wanted (Dmouth, Columbia, Vandy, etc.) but it sucks to think I still have to spend another year here without them before I can be in their current position.</p>
<p>Hi, senior here 
I got into my dream school, Reed College.
But I had two friends get into Swarthmore, two into Cornell, one into Brown, one to Bowdoin…
Lol Yale deferred all 10 of our applicants this year…But it’s because they accepted 6 kids last year from our school.</p>

<p>Most of my friends have a pretty sweet acceptance in hand at this point, my school did pretty decent in the early round this year. I can personally say I feel like all the pressure is gone since I’ve been accepted. I’ve only got 3 more apps to send out (and 1 I already sent before early decisions) and my wait till April definitely won’t be filled with anxiety. I suspect that senioritis will hit me quite hard pretty soon.</p>
<p>lol sweet.</p>
<p>Damn… I’m really gonna miss the seniors that I know.</p>
<p>Maybe I’ll be able to join them one day.</p>
<p>my school has nothing this year…</p>
<p>I’m slowly moving my way towards completing all my apps. Just got a lot of essays to write, really.</p>
<p>Praying for a Yale acceptance so much right now (see my other thread lol), but will see how it goes I guess. I do have an advantage in that I’m a QuestBridge Finalist, I guess. haha</p>
<p>@Francaisalamatt - Congrats on getting into Reed! That’s quite the accomplishment.</p>
<p>My friend got into MIT (his dream school), but that’s the only impressive acceptance. Extremely impressive, considering that less than 30% on average of each graduating class goes on to college for my school, and 90% of the ones that do, go to our state university.</p>
<p>Two of my friends got into U Chicago, one got into Cal Tech, two got into Emory.</p>
<p>I can’t wait until next year :D</p>
<p>Senior here - I got into Swarthmore! Congrats on Reed, Francaisalamatt! I was going to apply there if I didn’t get accepted to Swat.</p>
<p>@starfruit - Congrats! That’s also a great accomplishment. I was going to apply there but I had to remove it (along with a few other colleges) because I was going to be overloading myself with essay-writing work.</p>
<p>I’m a senior, and no one in my class applied early to anywhere. To my knowledge, I don’t think anyone at my school ever has. We’ve had one kid go to an Ivy League/school of similar prestige in the last 6 years or so. </p>
<p>Honestly, I wish I found out about CC sooner. I had no idea what it took to get into an HYPS etc. until my junior year. I didn’t even know SAT IIs existed until the end of sophomore year, and didn’t know it was possible to self-study APs. </p>
<p>My school lives in a bubble; I try to educate ambitious underclassmen a bit on just how much more competitive applicants outside our school are, but I doubt any are actually going to do anything about it.</p>
