Official Harvard SCEA Class of 2018 applicants thread

<p>@wandilecosa13, I’m not breathing.</p>

<p>i’m not breathing and about to have a mental breakdown. i couldn’t even sleep last night and doubt i’ll be able to this week. i honestly feel like crying. people in school are asking me nonstop about harvard and i just can’t take this. plus i have midterms to study for next week all on top of this.</p>

<p>i know this was full of depression and futility but i just needed to vent lol</p>

<p>@wandilecosa13 I’m an international from Pakistan. Where are you from?</p>

<p>@diddly123, I can totally relate with how you feel! I have a Physics midterm this Thursday, and I can’t help but think about the decision while trying to derive formulas or apply concepts during prep… And my whole school of 1070 (exactly that number :stuck_out_tongue: ) knows that I’ve applied since I’m the only one from my school. It really puts immense pressure on you when people don’t seem to mind their own business and ask you each day about Harvard! But I’ve been thinking positively about the whole process, I mean hey, we applied to Harvard because we thought that we’re good enough or worth a shot, and in the end that is all that matters. I know how depressing a deferral or rejection will feel, but I’ve experienced throughout my life that sometimes things don’t pan out the way you wanted or expected, but in the end it all turns out well.</p>

<p>IHarvard: Thanks! I wish you the best of luck.</p>

<p>@tyousaf i have an AP bio test four hours before i hear from harvard. hope that goes well lol. good luck to you though!</p>

<p>It’s going to be a long and painful 4 days. In a way, I don’t want to hear that decision… because at least in this intermission I can play with the possibility of an acceptance and hope for it. I don’t want reality to set in just yet… I’m not ready.</p>

<p>Part of me feels the same way you do Prospector, but what if we do get accepted? Isn’t that scenario worth risking the possibility of rejection?</p>

<p>I realize in all likelihood that it means nothing, but I got an email today inviting me (and other people) to a Christmas party in my state. I’m not a recruited athlete, and I realize it probably doesn’t, but is there any chance that this invitation means anything?</p>

<p>^ no.</p>

<p>.</p>

<p>yoskis: I’m pretty sure all decisions have been made by now; I doubt that they hadn’t yet gotten to your region by Friday, a week before decisions come out.
But obviously this is an educated guess, not a fact, so hopefully for your sake I’m wrong! :)</p>

<p>Well, this is the first time I’ve been wracked with insomnia from anxiety.
I can’t sleep.
Can you guys/girls sleep?</p>

<p>What does it mean when Harvard asks for your 1at quarter report card? That’s he only thing my counselor has heard from them, no interviews on my personality and all that.</p>

<p>@dasdui probably deferral</p>

<p>All of this could mean anything. </p>

<p>I’m going to block CC for hopefully the next 4 days, I can’t deal with this hyper analysis. </p>

<p>Lets see how long this lasts.</p>

<p>So what are you lovely people doing on this bless</p>

<p>i just received an email for an interview. what does this mean?</p>

<p>^good sign, you’ve made it this far.</p>

<p>Are you in the RD pool?</p>

<p>I thought I was the nervous one, then I saw this thread…
To everyone waiting on decisions, good luck and get some sleep!</p>

<p>If it’s your second interview, very good. If its your first, no sign.</p>
