Countdown towards February 12th

I've gone insane and decided to count the number of says until Judgment Day, February 12th.

February 12th is 86 days away...I started this countdown when it was 99 days away. I've made headway

So without further adieu...COUNTDOWN!!!

86...

Why would you do this? It'd be so much better if you cleared your mind of it completely (or as much as possible).

Perhaps your right. I don't think I'm letting it consume me though, so as long as I'm not going into anxious shock I guess things are ok

Are you really going to post a countdown every day in this thread? Seems a bit obsessive to me. And in a previous post, you said you were "nervously fidgeting" about your admissions decision.

Just chill out, your stats seems fine, you really don't have much to freak out over. I had lower stats than you and was pretty much expecting not to get in, but I'm here now....

Me? Summer B, but it doesn't really matter what term you apply for when it comes to admissions.

Per University of Florida - Admissions:

"Summer B is no different from fall in terms of competition, as all freshman applicants are evaluated as a class. There is no distinction between terms, so there is no admission advantage or disadvantage to choosing summer or fall entry."

yeah I'm the OP.

83.

And, at this point its not really as nerve-wracking as boring. I just want something to happen...

UF is my top choice. If I get in, my tuition deposit is being sent ASAP. Until then, I have to occupy myself with a 5 minute countdown everyday haha

Are you really going to do this every day?

Seriously, all of us have to wait, and posting on here will only make it feel longer.

Ha, it's so much better to forget about UF completely (well, do your housing stuff first if you need to!) and then be surprised when you get a "Greetings from the University of Florida" email on Jan. 30th with the status-checking instructions. Then you only have to freak out for 2 weeks as opposed to like 3 months.

ok so nobody wants me posting the countdown, so I'll stop...

I'll restart it Jan. 30, then.
