Somehow, I prefer "denied" over "rejected." You're left with a little bit of dignity.

eliz: mods can leap tall buildings in a single bound; character limits are a cakewalk.

I don't want to edit all posts, just in that thread...to keep it simple to scan.

Azmodan, the meanest letters come from Columbia. Everybody else tries to soften the blow a little better than Columbia.

Don't know what this year's says. But they have put it quite bluntly in the past that they don't want to hear from you again.

Actually, I favor EA applicants posting both their admissions decision AND their stats. Come on, everyone should know that "posterity" and the other obsessive compulsive people who lack crystal balls in the future will love to see the stats of those rejected/deferred/accepted. PSedrish, can we have TWO threads stickied? One with just decision, other with stats also?

I'd really appreciate it if you could float my "official EA results thread," PSedrish. Not only would it give the people without emails (didn't check the box, the message didn't come through, etc) some idea of what kind of person is getting accepted, it'd also be a real resource for the RD kids, and future EAers.

Even if PSed doesn't lock it, can someone make sure they bump it to the top Tuesday afternoon? I'm not going to be able to get on CC.

Guys, I'm from the Yale board (and like Harvard).

We have had long discussions over the issue. Here our some of our ideas:

Official EA Decisions - 2009


HOpefully, this can keep thing under control.

Did PSedrish read this? Was the request to the court granted by the judge?
