Didn’t apply to Caltech, but my solution is 11:22. Good luck to all who did apply, and let me know if I was right.

Does anyone have the option to withdraw their application? I don’t.

The answer is 11.22018 which translates into 11:13:12.648. Let’s see if Caltech keeps their word and publishes the decision at the time stated.

30

11.22 is not 11:22, due to 100 vs 60 base. 0.22*60 is 13, so my answer is 11:13:13 (rounded to the second)

This proves why I would not survive at Caltech. Can’t do basic math lol.

32

I don’t see the ‘Application Status’ Banner anymore, anyone else?

33

Why do you want to withdraw? have you commited to another college?

34

Me neither

35

It’s a form of portal astrology. For some colleges, you can only withdraw your application days before decision release if you were rejected.
