<p>I have watched EVERY SINGLE Computer Science video Stanford has on Youtube; I even completed the assignments. I also, download the Stanford app on my iPhone. I can draw Stanford’s campus out on a piece of paper and name all of the buildings. I can name you all of the professors in the CS department, first and last names. I dream about Stanford, I think about Stanford 24/7.</p>

<p>I have become a MAD MAN!!! I need to find a mental asylum.</p>

<p>If I get rejected, I will be beyond devastated.</p>

662

<p>Oh wow StanfordCS! As crazy as it, it’s also kind of impressive. What is your second choice if you get deferred or rejected?</p>

663

<p>Lol wow man that’s pretty intense</p>

664

<p>Either Duke or UChicago.</p>

665

<p>StanfordCS. Sorry man, but that’s really kind of sad. Life isn’t about going to college.</p>

666

<p>I know it’s sad. I never said I’m proud.</p>

<p>I know college is not the most important thing in life, but RIGHT NOW for me, it’s the most important thing.</p>

667

<p>Yea when you think about it, its pretty much the whole point of high school</p>

668

<p>@thousandmiles Rice, UChicago, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Brown (safeties are Minnesota and CO Mines since I could apply early at those two due to the REA exceptions)</p>

<p>@jdlace seriously. It really is.</p>

669

<p>So, I went and got the mail and look what I got…</p>

<p><a href=“http://i41.■■■■■■■.com/2uegy00.jpg[/url]”>http://i41.■■■■■■■.com/2uegy00.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I started to cry. The book is 80 pages long, telling me why Stanford is the best fit for me. Like I already didn’t know. LOL.</p>

670

<p>Haha I got the same thing and had the exact same reaction</p>

671

<p>I hope this is a sign from the man upstairs, divine intervention.</p>

<p>The guy next to me looked like I was some sort of creep, crying over a piece of mail. LOL. He asked if I needed help.</p>

<p>How long after applying did you receive it? Mine took a long time because I live all the way down in the Sunshine State.</p>

672

<p>I got it a week or so ago, but I live in SoCal.</p>

<p>Is anyone else applying to UCs? I’m applying to five, and I randomly picked majors that sounded interesting. Now I have to go back and research everything…</p>

673

<p>I got it like a month after I applied. </p>

<p>@rush10 I’m applying to usc. I rfeally want to go to cali but I didn’t realize the uc’s don’t use the common app and the deadlines are early so I can’t finish them in time</p>

674

<p>Ahhhhhhh!!! 20 days till judgement day!</p>

675

<p>^ I’ve been counting down the days too. ):</p>

<p>I just got the same book a few days ago. </p>

<p>I’m applying to UC’s. Well, applied. I sent those off around two weeks ago. P:
I submitted it to five campuses too. Hopefully, things turn out well for those.</p>

676

<p>StanfordCS don’t we hear back on the 10th?</p>

677

<p>I was under the impression that it was the 9th actually. </p>

<p>I thought they sent out decisions the Friday before?</p>

678

<p>jdlace: The essays are really easy, but idk if I’d pay oos tuition for a UC other than UCB or UCLA. And we hear back on the 15th at the latest.</p>

679

<p>Just for the record, the stanford booklet doesn’t mean anything. I got it several days ago and I haven’t even applied.</p>

680

<p>@rush10 yea those were the only 2 I was gonna apply to but its too late to get my school forms in on time</p>

<p>@myteusdaysmile Are you sure?</p>
