Do you think admissions officers like their jobs? I feel like you would either love it or hate it. you would like it if you liked learning about other people and their stories, but I could see hating it because a lot of times teenagers tend to think they know all their is to life when they have barely even lived a quarter of it.
@tuty143 I would be great with that. The sooner the better.
still no interview, probably means i got rejected
@zoomloom Where do you live?
Mazal Tov,
All of your decisions have been made.
Yeah, at this moment they’ve probably already switched to full committee to work on the couple ambiguous cases- other than those everyone else’s decision is made.
@schroscat NC
@zoomloom Don’t worry! Maybe they just couldn’t find an interviewer in your area.
@zoomloom I did not have my interview until this past Monday. My interview apologized profusely, and tried to explain something about a system/website complication and that he missed my name because of it. I didn’t exactly understand what the error was, but it sounded like there is a new system that caused problems for some interviewers. I’m not sure if that is the case with your interview, but either way I would not consider the lack of interview a sign of rejection. The Harvard website even says, “…if an interview cannot be arranged, you will not be at a disadvantage during the application process.” I remember growing increasingly more concerned about not being contacted (especially since someone else from my school had their interview very early), and I understand how you are feeling. Just don’t let your spirits get down!
@zoomloom
Yeah, don’t worry about it! This year, Harvard instituted a brand new interview process and system, so it has been causing issues all over the place. I didn’t have an interview until this past Wednesday. You might still get one, and if you don’t there are a ton of people who didn’t either because of the system. I doubt the interview will be that important (if at all) this year because of this…
@verizonwireless So did I get in or not?
@verizonwireless yeah!! did I get in?
@verizonwireless Do you have AT&T?
So I will be in school when decisions are released (2pm PST, 5pm eastern; I’m west coast). Is anyone else in school during that time, and will check right away? I’m not sure if I have enough guts LOL
I will find out at 11pm, the day before an important chemistry exam. I guess I won’t be getting much sleep…
@kyuutoryuu I will be out of school (4 pm) but if I were finding out in school, I would wait until after. For me, when I find out bad news in school(which I’m not saying you’ll get I believe in you!) I feel worse trying to keep my emotions inside. On the same note, if I were to find out I got accepted in school, I would be so excited that I would tell other people and it would seem cocky.
@schroscat IDK… But at this point, all decisions are made
@TheWaffleMan149 Yea
I agree, maybe like 200 really ambiguous cases that really need to be discussed are still going on.
@QueenN22 aka mine lol
