<p>So today as I was checking to see if all my information was right for my diploma, the head college counselor came up to me and mumbled something and then said “you’re the man”…I keep entertaining this fantasy that somehow he knows I got accepted or something…but thats just silly…I should just give up on this thought right?..right??? </p>
<p>On an unrelated note, I think I’m going a bit crazy lol</p>
<p>@SouthernHope I read through last year’s thread, and I remember both of those candidates!</p>
<p>@SouthernHope I think I remember the 2400 applicant you’re referring to, and I remember looking through his posting history and there being some pretty big discrepancies (i.e. he might have been t-word-ing) </p>
<p>@boxofdonuts Tripping?</p>
<p>starts with t and ends with rolling</p>
<p>This is the information that was in the email I received after I applied:</p>
<p>The Application Status Portal is a secure online portal for viewing your application information. Through this portal you can update contact information and track the pieces of your application we have received. Please note: admissions decisions are not provided on this website.</p>
<p>That makes me think that there is a separate portal for our admission decisions. I think that’s why we have to get new login info from an email. The general consensus also seems to be that the other sketchy portal that was posted on here is only for last year’s decisions. </p>
<p>Whatever portal they throw at us tomorrow, we gon crash it! #CrashThePortal2k14</p>
<p>If we did, that’d rank among my top accomplishments. </p>
<p>@shanethesemi but you haven’t received an email yet about the new portal have you?</p>
<p>Because I haven’t received any word about the new portal so I’m curious.</p>
<p>thoughts? they say it will be emailed… weird. <a href=“https://college.harvard.edu/admissions/application-process/application-timeline/email-notification”>https://college.harvard.edu/admissions/application-process/application-timeline/email-notification</a></p>
<p>Hey guys! I’ve found something interesting;) Look in the upper right corner.
<a href=“Admissions | Harvard College”>https://college.harvard.edu/admissions</a> </p>
<p>@MissDianaKhr I don’t see anything…???</p>
<p>@mindyru hey, not every admissions is the same. There is still a shot you might get in.</p>
<p>Consider how you stumbled upon the article: that kid in an anomaly, which is why you read about him. If what he did wasn’t so spectacular, so unique, you wouldn’t have heard about it. </p>
<p>So don’t put yourself down. There’s no point in asserting that it’s all over before it’s all over. It’s going to be alright. </p>
<p>@Jessdilla2015 Cool! Unilateral or bi? Palate too? She has left unilateral and palate. She just got her top braces off a month or two ago after 10 years of having them! I think she wrote about that in her CA essay</p>
<p>@Memmsmom That’s an awesome trick. Has she ever tried associating birthdays to random facts? That’d be crazy if she could transition her birthday memory to memorizing whole text books.</p>
<p>@MissDianaKhr I don’t see anything either. Are you talking about the “my.Harvard” thing? </p>
<p>@mindyru </p>
<p>Look up the OnHarvardTime interview of Harvard’s dean of admissions Fitzsimmons. It is meant to be humorous but Fitzsimmons says something interesting in there. He says on the 2000 that are admitted every year, 200-300 are those anomalies you posted about, another 200-300 are extremely lopsided people, but the last 1400-1600 are regular all rounders like us
</p>
<p>Don’t get depressed over an anomaly, they are the minority.</p>
<p>@galecollege Whoops, forgot the ranges. Looks like the stress is harming my math
</p>
<p>@calliemoon11 her stalking gets worse. She has a habit of texting in her sleep accidentally texted a boy that didn’t know she had his number. Lol. (She really is normal. Honest)</p>
<p>@youngster9 There’s something a bit wrong with your math there, unless the stress has gotten to me so.</p>
