Yale 2022 Applicants Discussion

I have an AP Stat test next period and it’s just compounding the stress! My friend is doing Columbia ED and we begged him not to choose today for the test, but alas.

I listen to lots of different music: coffeehouse chill music, kpop, rap, pop, top billboards…I like variety! Currently I’m OBSESSED with the soundtrack for The Greatest Showman, the upcoming movie with Hugh Jackman, Zendaya and Zac Efron. The song “Million Dreams” was super relatable for my sleepless night before this (And probably for you guys too!!!)

As I said before, I’m a geeky Pokémon fan. My early Xmas gift was the new 2DS, and it’s not just any plain DS. It’s a fricking pokeball shaped DS. I’m legit.

For books I’ve read the Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus series countless times, I can recite some of the quotes

@writergirl0316 good luck on your test!

@MyDogsNameIsFat Percy Jackson is good stuff, read it in fifth grade and it changed my life (hooked me on YA literature)

I am from India lol

Just thinking about the decision release made me nearly sick enough to skip school but since finals is just around the corner i’m trying to focus on holding in my stomach and anything but the decisions ahh

I am gonna say unashamedly that i listen to a LOT of pop hehe but music is my life. I love listening to it, playing it, singing, I will do anything and everything related to music and dance, although I had to give up dance this year bc I tore my ACL in May :// definitely one of the hardest things in my life, not being able to dance for 9 months to a year after 12 years of dancing every week.

@ohsnapitssunny awwww. sad to hear that. Hope you can get back to dancing soon!

@YGTOZC which high school are you from

@tryingforyale check your messages, don’t want to disclose that publicly

@YGTOZC it’s so rough! my best friend and I are the only ones applying anywhere out of state in our school of 2600 kids. I looked up the statistics and last year Utah sent 21 students to Yale out of 122,000 HS grads going to college. That’s 0.00017% lol

as for music, does anyone listen to Frightened Rabbit, Wilco, or Blind Pilot?

Whoa @politico2022 that’s rough. Best of luck!

Edit: Guys the FCC just voted to repeal net neutrality. Damn

What time does Yale come out?

@Batwing99 5pm EST, if I’m not mistaken!

As the time gets closer, all of a sudden, I don’t want time to move forward. Right now, I am sort of protected by the unknown which means I still have hope, but once it comes out, it is so final that there is not much we can do about it any more. It is a dream now, and it will become the harsh reality in a few hours. I know I will be deferred, and most likely denied, so I’d rather still be in the dreaming mode now…

Hey how many of y’all are freaking out

@thespian18 I’d admit you just for what you beautifully said above if I were the AO :slight_smile:

@soshifan26 I feel as if I have pins and needles all over my body :") Good luck to everyone!

Only a few more hours left! Best of luck to all of us :slight_smile:

bulldogs bulldogs tell me now now now

i love frank ocean @cavsin7
