<p>mec12891, I’m in Wallingford, New Haven County. </p>
<p>Good to know another CT person!</p>
<p>ahhhh TODAY IS THE DAY GUYSSSSSSSSS!!!</p>

<p>i have an MIT interview at 3 and prob wont make it home before 5, so all im going to be doing is staring into the interview’s face like “O_O omg columbia”</p>
<p>hahah good luck! just make sure when they ask why you ant to go there … you dont get mixed up =P hehe</p>
<p>haha thanks. awww damn, you just reminded me that ive done a less than desirable amount of in depth research on MIT for this interview because of columbia O.o</p>
<p>Guys, the Columbia Class of 2013 Facebook group is OFFICIAL!</p>
<p>[Welcome</a> to Facebook! | Facebook](<a href=“Redirecting...”>Redirecting...)</p>
<p>I think it was just created by the Admissions staff. In past weeks, I haven’t seen it when I’ve searched.</p>
<p>They are preparing for the accepted students. It’s coming so quickly. This is REALITY.</p>
<p>So alas we have arrived to big day. =). It was honestly a mission to get on cc, as the server was apparently too busy, which means everyone is freaking out, haha. Well, I really wish you all the best of luck. It has been a pleasure meeting all of you, and this forum has been of great help alleviating the anxiety.
Hope today becomes an unforgettable memory and not a repressed one ^_^.
Cheers.</p>
<p>its so official…</p>
<p>only about 16 more hours left.</p>
<p>oh my goodness.
i’m having so much trouble concentrating.
i live in columbia’s time zone, so it’s 1:15 am here, and i still have an essay to write/edit
however, i can’t stop staring at the counter i have in a full screen window from timeanddate.com… it’s very frustrating because I CAN’T WAIT and i have this odd feeling that i’m going to get rejected because there’s a pit in my stomach and i feel nauseous and i have a major headache.
and this essay is still due tomorrow, no matter how much i tell myself i don’t want to do it.
however, i do have to mention that if i didn’t have this forum, i wouldn’t have you guys to keep me relatively sane in the last hours of this ordeal.
thank you all, i truly appreciate the companionship.
this forum is worth staying up late for.</p>
<p>Just wondering, is anyone here really confident that he/she will get in? Most posts I’ve seen are quite pessimistic… I don’t blame you – it is tough.</p>
<p>Either case, good luck to all of us!!!</p>
<p>How much do you think Columbia relies on numbers (scores/gpa) to make their decision? From what I’ve heard, I thought that Columbia was one of the Ivies that viewed admissions more comprehensively…?</p>
<p>Well…
I don’t know for sure, but I heard that it doesn’t matter AS MUCH as the a lot of the other Ivies and prestigious schools. but of course they do take it into account.</p>
<p>lol, my guess/hope is that they use numbers as a basis (just to make sure you’re capable of handling ivy-leveled work). After that, they treat everyone equally. like they’d compare a 2100 SAT applicant with a 2300 applicant not so much on their SAT scores, but focus on other aspects – essays, recs, etc. But again, just my guess.</p>
<p>WHEEEEEEE</p>
<p>no day but todayyy</p>
<p>IWA1409…I’m in Delhi right now (visiting family)…it’s really boring…all i do is sit around and watch the columbia countdown thingy…</p>
