@highlyaspiring99 thank you! That really means a lot!
Someone stated that they have an interview soon and wanted to know what it meant. When my interviewer called me she said the admissions office wanted the interview done by the 6th. I don’t think that means I’m getting any special extra look though.
@highlyaspiring99 I second your opinion about @tuty143
Are students who don’t receive interviews usually the ones that get rejected?
@NParker for people in the anglosphere, I doubt that.
For other internationals, I have no idea whatsoever. But there are rumors of that among East Asian applicants who apply from countries with many applicants.
Hi everyone, fellow SCEA applicant here! After reading this thread, it is clear you all seem like extremely kind-hearted and qualified individuals that Harvard would be lucky to have. Best of luck to all of you!
Good morning everyone!
5 days, 6 hours, and 9 minutes remaining!
@schroscat good evening.
It’s 5 pm here in Germany
@Soheils @goldenmaster good evening!
Life is rough when there’s no food in your house :((
@schroscat Good morning from December 6th!! Love being Asian
@karakoram What time will you be up for decisions?
@arijits Skype interviews are only for international applicants. Domestic applicants can only interview face-to-face. Canada and the UK might also be face-to-face.
@schroscat 5pm ET is 6am on the 11th for me! I doubt I’ll be able to sleep at all the night before… (
@karakoram Have a read-a-thon or something to take your mind off of it!
I had decided to not shave my beard until decision day, but I ended up looking like a coconut-kiwi crossbreed so I had to break my vow…
@schroscat sounds good! I’ll probably find myself finishing All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy, one of the few required readings for SL Lit that I’ve actually enjoyed because of how much I love McCarthy as an author. The Blind Owl by Sadeq Hedayat and The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga are next on the waitlist
^ “waitlist” wasn’t exactly the best choice of words there…
@karakoram
funny that Boof e koor (The blind owl) is somewhat banned in Iran. There are censored versions, but the original is rare . A friend of mine has it, but he has not been particularly forthcoming with lending it to me.
