<p>Exactly! We should all be proud of ourselves! We were brave enough to risk rejection and apply to our dream school…some people would never dare to even take the chance. Regardless of the results at 6pm, I’m proud of all of us: accepted/deferred/rejected. We’re all strong applicants, and a great college that will appreciate us is out there! Haha remember, if things don’t turn out the way you want, Duke rejected your application, not you. You are awesome (: great luck, guys!</p>
<p>lets all just be happy we were lucky enough to be considered.
i have high hopes and confidence but if its dissapointment instead then it is what it is.</p>
<p>90 minutes all.</p>
<p>Let’s hope Duke doesn’t think of themselves as the new Harvard with all of these new applicants.</p>
<p>Though several people have already said it, I just wanted to say good luck to everyone. It’s certainly been a journey this past month or two, and I’m glad I had my fellow CC’ers to make the ride a bit easier. You’re all wonderful people, and whatever happens, happens. Everything will work out in the end. :]</p>
<p>Good luck again to all.
Here’s hoping this won’t be the bloodbath that the Columbia thread turned out to be. <em>fingers crossed</em></p>
<p>Why did the Columbia thread turn into a bloodbath?</p>
<p>@shockazulu The Columbia ED decisions were brutal. I don’t know what the exact rate was, but hardly anyone on CC got in.</p>
<p>To my friends out here on this thread… you know who you are 
I really hope you guys get in!!!</p>
<p>@RobinsonI You sound like an awesome person and a great friend. :]</p>
<p>No posts for 12 minutes? That’s crazy. One hour mark here.</p>
<p>Less than an hour. O.O</p>
<p>To set the mood:
[YouTube</a> - John Murphy - Sunshine (Adagio In D Minor)](<a href=“- YouTube”>- YouTube)</p>
<p>Some epic movie music</p>
<p>< 50 mins!!!</p>
<p>as a Cornell ED acceptee who had previously also been looking into Duke, I wish everybody the best of luck!!!</p>
<p>I really have the urge to play Carl Orff’s ‘O Fortuna’ in the background as I check…
but then that may make it a bit too climactic, especially if I’m rejected (which is likely.)</p>
<p>45 minutes</p>
<p>This feels surreal.</p>
<p>fbwafhjdjjdafaahjdsdhs im bugging</p>
<p>Maybe all the qualified CC’ers die of anxiety, and Duke is forced to bump the rest of us in :D</p>
<p>I have refreshed that page about 10 times in the past 5 minutes. And we still have 40 minutes to go. -_-'</p>
<p>By the time 6 o’ clock gets here I’ll probably have refreshed the page a couple times before I realized it has changed.</p>
<p>^ that’s what I’m doing right now</p>
<p>35 minutes left! </p>
<p>odd thing is I feel much less impatient now than I did say 6 hours ago.</p>
