<p>Ay, this is a lose-lose situation for me! :(</p>
<p>My exams start on Tuesday morning. </p>
<p>If I get bad results on Monday, I will be too depressed to study and fail my exams.</p>
<p>If I get good results on Monday, Senioritis will take its final blow and I will fail my exams (because I felt no need to study!).</p>
<p>It is a done deal.</p>
<p>^ i feel you. Thatās why Iām hoping somehow results come out tomorrow and i can process everythingā¦</p>
<p>Guys, no need to feel such pressure. Just imagine looking back to this waiting in 5 years. Itās no big deal. Wherever we end up we will still be who we are, right? Iām not saying that we should not bother about yaleās decision, but just ākeep calm and carry onā with our lives. Whether it is a cong or rej, we shouldnāt let one decision affect anything. Anyway, no one can judge us except ourselves.</p>
<p>BTW, Iām quoting my mother. She is one of the inspirations of my life.</p>
<p>Good advice. Best of luck to everyone. Even if it doesnāt seem like luck was on our side on Monday, it might of been in the long run :)</p>
<p>they emailed all yale students saying prospective class of 2018 kids will get decisions on monday</p>
<p>whatd they say to the current yalies?</p>
<p>Reading this thread is helping me and my excitement. I am the only one from my school to apply to Yale (or any ivy) this year (or ever!!) so being able to talk to other Yale applicants really helps put things in prospective. I canāt wait until Monday! Not sure what to do with my Yale sweatshirt I bought when I visited if I get rejectedā¦ It is quite cozyā¦ (:</p>
<p>Good luck to all applicants!</p>

I didnāt get that email, should I be worriedā¦?
And it says that they donāt have my mid-year report but thatās after first semester right?</p>
<p>let me clarifyā¦</p>
<p>Yale emailed all current yale students saying prospective/SCEA class of 2018 applicants will get decisions on monday</p>
<p>oh jesus thank you. LOL</p>
<p>Yeah, sorry about that, guys. The lady must have misspoke. Itās only one more day until decision day, though!</p>
<p>Iām guessing the admissions officers are under a lot of stress right now</p>
<p>This kind of sucks, though. I get out at 1 on monday and have to immediately cram for a physics test on tuesday. I donāt know that Iāll be able to focus considering the fact that by 5:00 I could know whether or not I need to pull all nighters every week for the rest of the trimester :(</p>
<p>Can someone chance me?</p>
<p>Just kidding. Guyz chill. Itāll be alright. Five of my friends just got rejected from Stanford and they all still dealt with it positively. It really put things into perspective for me.</p>
<p>^ lol for a second i was likeā¦</p>
<p>i also applied scea to yale, just found this thread and Iām cracking up because it reminds me of somethingā¦</p>
<p>iām in boy scouts. So a few years ago, Iām sitting at this super-intense boy scout election for whoās going to be in charge of the āsectionā (~the area of a state, depending on the state obviously, but iām from MO). So something weird has happened with the votes and the advisers are scrambling, pulling out guidebooks and making phone calls and all kinds of stuff. So thereās just been this long, awkward pause between the ~70 of us in the little amphitheatre by the lake. So out of nowhere to break the tension up a little, this kid stands up and shouts āI CANāT HANDLE THE PRESSURE!ā and then jumps into the lake screaming his head off. 
oh my gosh it was so great. </p>
<p>so anyway I dunno if anyone else thought that was funny, but i at least was amused and felt less pressured for a second. I guess the moral of this story is if youāve got butterflies in your stomachā¦ go jump into the lake.</p>
<p>@HaikuHippo</p>
<p>Lol thx a lot for your amusing story!!! Comforting indeed. Makes me feel a little bit better. Yale normally accepts one student from my HS each year, and I just really really hope that itāll be me. Anyway, I need a story like this to laugh about and for a minute forget all these anxieties. :)</p>
<p>What email did they send saying that itās the 16th, I never got this email?</p>
<p>Also, I applied to Yale-NUS, I got called for an interview, but I chose not to do the interview. Does this mean I canāt get in?</p>
<p>@FlaWless007</p>
<p>They will send us an email ON THE 16th telling us that the decision has come out.</p>
<p>Donāt worry, the interview isnāt decisive and is only optional. Your chance for getting in stays the same. Good luck!</p>
