I'm hoping for the best and expecting the worst. That way, I won't be surprised. (Maya Angelou's Caged Bird, anyone?)
OMG I'm so nervous and excited I can hardly wait. And I've told myself over and over again that the world will NOT end when I don't get into Duke but it will be a crushing blow nonetheless. Plus I havn't worked on any of my other college applications at all since work has been so hectic as well. This is driving me insaneeeeeeee!!!! Good luck to everyone!

Last night, I had a dream that I got deferred. I was about to cry and then I woke up. This waiting is driving me insane!

Oh man, you guys had better not apply to MD/PhD programs then...I don't get some of my decisions until late march and I interviewed like a month ago O_o
Anyway, good luck to you guys, I remember how nerve wracking this was, especially at that last second when the decision letter page is loading at 6:01PM :/

i've been playing 3 scenarios in my head since i submitted my apps!!
getting accepted, getting rejected, getting deferred
i wanna get in so badly, i havent even started thinking about other schools yet. i mean i have my list, but i haven't done anything
plus i recently tore my ligament in my ankle playing rugby, so it makes me sit and day dream even more :S
i hope this 32% increase in applicants won't hurt, but i'm stuck in the wrong pile (international students) :S
good luck everyone!

Yep. 12 days 8 hours ladies and gentlemen. I'd like to wish everyone good luck again. We're beyond the point of being competition: we're all in the same place (you know, except the ******* legacies and recruits :P), and we're all probably feeling the same anxiety.
I honestly can't wait for this day to come! Even a rejection will make me happy in a way: Every time I look at Duke I'm like "Omg this place is amazing" but I get a similar (though SLIGHTLY weaker) feeling looking at BU, my second choice. The colleges are so awesome but so opposite that it hurts my head not knowing which one I'll be going to. On December 10 my mind will be at ease.....unless I get deferred. >:O
