<p>*5 days and about 3 hours</p>
<p>Yeah, I had to…</p>

<p>can you post the link from the website please? I couldn’t find it.</p>
<p>I don’t know about you guys, but this is the biggest decision of my life…</p>

<p>@columbiafan: I’d argue that the decision to care about learning was far more important to me than this will ever be. It’s going to have a bigger impact on my life and who I am than any institution ever could. That said, OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG.</p>
<p>Now I’m excited!!! And terrified… We’ll know if we’re going to be classmates in 5 days:D</p>
<p>It’s awesome that it’s December 8. So early! Sorry for doubting anyone’s counselors!</p>
<p>@zekaje I would argue that the decision to learn was not ours, for we were at quite a young age to decide that for ourselves. As for high school, I believe that a decision to learn and work hard should be followed by some sort of success, in this case, acceptance to Columbia. Of course there are other amazing schools, but the fact that we have worked so hard should lead to favorable success.</p>
<p>sorry to bring this up again… but i was wondering if there’s anyone from a TRIMESTER system school who got asked about fall term grades??? (because i sent in my midterm grades for fall, which i think is equivalent to first quarter grades)</p>
<p>I live in on the west coast, and I have study hall when the results are released… I’m still debating whether or not I should check during school or wait (it’d be 50 minutes) until I get home!!!</p>
<p>rchhay, you’re lucky you have school to distract you up until the time! If I were you I would check, but I’m crazy about these things, heh.</p>
<p>I get out at 3, and I’ll probably be refreshing the site starting at like 4:50. Waiting for SAT scores has taught me well… or not, depending on how you look at it.</p>
<p>i’ll be at mock trial… im def gonna “go to the bathroom” at 5!!!</p>
<p>I don’t want to look haha! It would be the worst Friday of my life if I got rejected, and not a whole lot better if I got deferred. I really hate to be the Debbie Downer or approach this process pessimistically, but I just don’t see it happening. Some of you CCers are so amazing. Reading your profiles and various posts gives just a hint into your lives, but, at the same time, insights into the intellectual community vying for those few spots. I know everyone admitted will be worthy. I think I may have to hold off at looking at my decision until the friday. I’m not really one to rush about dates. It will be the same the next day. It sounds crazy to type this, I am anxious, but I think I just may. Anyone feel the same, or am I wholly in my own world?</p>
<p>I’ll also be going to the washroom at 5. See you all there.</p>
<p>@mustangman, I feel the same way you do…I don’t have the stellar scores / profile in general as so many of you guys do. I am trying not to get my hopes up, because I don’t want to be devastated if I don’t get it, which is very probable.</p>
<p>On a more positive note, if I am accepted, I won’t be able to contain myself when I go back into mock trial</p>
<p>Yea I agree. I’ll be in Stockholm that day to accept some silly prize… I mean, I’ve won the darn thing twice before anyways. I’m going to be sooo excited/nervous about the decision letter. Maybe I’ll just tell the Nobel committee I can’t go…what do y’all think?</p>
<p>@TobiasFunkeBlue: If I were a girl, I’d ask you to marry me. On the other hand, the gender switch would probably turn you off…</p>
<p>@tobiafunkeblue…you said you applied to the wrong place…</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m not too keen on receiving a rejection in a class with approximately 25 other seniors who will likely ask me about it the second it happens (with good intentions, because they think I’ll get in—do they not realize Columbia is a crapshoot?!), but I think waiting the 50 minutes would be more stressful, so I’m probably going to check during class.</p>
<p>I am excited, nervous, and anxious. I love the curriculum that columbia provides for Hispanic Studies and Biochemistry! I hope I get in! But I shall wait patiently (technically impatiently…lol) for Thursday. If I get in to columbia, I shall change the color of my toyota tundra truck to columbia blue! :)</p>
