What?

Your point was to make the point that suze made before?

And to make your point you went through a series of posts from over a couple of months, gathered them together, implied that there’s some sort of deception or lie and shared them with everyone almost two weeks after the fact in a new thread?

Ever hear of Private Message? You’re an adult. She’s thirteen, maybe fourteen. Her posts (as you’ve outlined them) were actually consistent. Yours (the two in this thread) are not.

If the idea was to set the record straight to create some sort of crazy database that compares “chances” threads to actual results, there’s STILL no consensus as to whether this person is an ORM or URM. And it’s her prerogative to keep certain facts close to the vest. It’s quite possible that not everyone here wants to provide an accurate listing of personal facts about their applications or their outcomes.

Plenty of kids come here to get advice or simply to socialize. Their “chances” threads are, in my mind, firivolous fun…part of that socializing. Which is just one reason why it’s pretty much insane to try to make that information foot with self-reported admission outcomes. But of all the reasons kids come here, I’m pretty sure that one of them is NOT to have adults compile their posts from over a couple months and call them out for perceived inaccuracies or inconsistencies (that actually don’t exist).
