Official Stanford SCEA 2017 Applicants' Discussion Thread

<p>Not once did I attack people of different ethnicities.</p>

<p>Deferred.</p>

<p>35 act, 800/800/800 sat2 in math2/bio/chem, 4.48 wgpa, 7 aps, Intel semi finalist, usabo semifinalist, asb president, research, great recommendations, etc etc. mean nothing.</p>

<p>Reason: 3 kids from my school got in with far inferior stats but were legacy and I guess they couldn’t go beyond their " quota" of x per school. </p>

<p>Enuf said.</p>

<p>^ A damn shame kids like you don’t get in</p>

<p>where else did u apply statlanta?</p>

<p>statlanta didn’t play the race card. it was the other guy. I completely get it; you’re just mad. I’d feel the same way. You work so hard in school telling yourself this is the award and you don’t get it. Well lemme just say this isn’t the award. Your hard work will pay off in due time if you continue to strive. Maybe not now but maybe when you’re earning 400K as a surgeon or something. I really hope this doesn’t deter you. Just brush it off and keep moving. Stay strong :).</p>

<p>this will definitely motivate me in wherever i go. others im applying to:</p>

<p>UIUC - got accepted today
Harvard
University of Michigan
University of Wisconsin
USC
UCB
UCLA
North Carolina - CH
Northwestern
Cornell</p>

<p>probably also doesnt help that i applied for chem engineering, hopefully i get in to some other schools. my next top choice is probably UMich</p>

<p>also ****es me off that a recruited athlete got in from my school w a 31 ACT and they are always asking ME for help in school. and they get to go. whatever</p>

<p>Exactly! Like this is just one school, like I understand you really wanted to go there, but there are lots others in which you will be perfectly happy! You’ll see! Even if it didn’t turn out the way you wanted, you just have to keep persevering and never give up, and one day you <em>will</em> be making 400K and it truly will have been Stanford’s loss for rejecting you.</p>

<p>Hey just wanted to say best of luck to all of you. I am very honored to have been accepted to Stanford, along with 5 of my peers. For anyone wondering, I had no idea whether I would be accepted or not, but my “chill” philosophy is something that works for me in times like these. But it doesn’t matter; we are all great people who will do amazing things, and we should never forget that. Good luck!</p>

<p>Norwhale said it perfectly(:</p>

<p>So… I need to get some Stanford paraphernalia!!! XD</p>

<p>International here, been lurking on this thread ever since i hit “submit” on the common app. This is actually my second year applying to stanford - deferred my studies due to conscription into the army.</p>

<p>And this is also my second flat-out rejection.</p>

<p>Well, that’s it i guess, just can’t match up to the hordes of international asians out there. I’m in a zen mood right now because i braced myself for rejection, but it’ll probably start hurting tonight. Truth is, reading this thread actually made me feel a bit worse as well.</p>

<p>So, for those of you who were rejected… At least you haven’t been rejected twice, haha.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>May I ask, what exactly is it that your motivating yourself to get? Sure, admittance to Stanford, but then what?</p>

<p>Sure, I thought that Stanford served for me the ideal community to participate in the current social and technological revolution, however, UC Berkeley, Penn, MIT, Columbia, Harvard, UCLA, or McGill all have some pretty damn fine programs and minds. Obviously it’s disappointing, but honestly, I was most emotionally affected by the idea that shootings like the shooting that occurred today, was ominous of the continuing development of a self-destructive environment and advanced life form (humans). Launching highly functional location-based community networks is still the number one priority, but I cannot wait to collaborate any longer. Perhaps with the right consciousness working in these high concentration areas, these leading institutions will take humanity in the right direction.</p>

<p>Perhaps High Hagin is too unintelligent and incoherent to thoughtfully and effectively express ideas. So I think at this point, I’m basically a bum. But you know what they say, you gotta hit rock bottom to really come out. ;)</p>

<p>Yeh I’m def way too crazy for Stanford. But I look forward to interacting with energies and intellectual manifestations you bring about in the present. :wink: </p>

<p>Email me at haginrainbow@********** <<< Gmail obviously, ****ing CC censorship… Seriously I even got censored from FB once…</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>WOw wow wow how did i not see this before. This is seriously not society? OMG it is. I mean I love the semi-anonymous honesty, but that **** is just disturbing. </p>

<p>Do you realize we are currently in a global transition into a technological paradigm? My god no wonder you love anthropology Holocene, humans are really fascinating. We really do need to assess the current resources in the present, as well as any knowledge we have picked up that might be useful to others, collaborate, and enter an age of enlightenment!</p>

<p>Hahahaha the pretentious nuttiness is overwhelming, but I do speak from experience and imagination. :wink: (reference to self)</p>

<p>Oh, I feel so stupid and inconsiderate. Other then a private message I sent, I haven’t congratulated you guys.</p>

<p>Congratulations !!</p>

<p>Vorpals - Thanks for posting on both threads, one among few!</p>

<p>coffeeandtea - Ahhh what a familiar name. I feel that our direct interaction was more limited then I would of liked it to been. But these anonymous forums are hardly sophisticated online platforms for facilitating human interaction. But location based community-discovery networks are definitely going to take us a step closer, if built intelligently. :wink: Love it is, my friend</p>

<p>littebuilder - hehehe I’d love to see some creations. If you would like to share. Sharing is caring. ;)</p>

<p>Trivial1 - Aye. Clever. Good we are and so we shall be! ;)</p>

<p>Pittfan04 - Vata Pita Kapha</p>

<p>Amy0827 - :wink: This is crazy. Cause I just met you. So here’s my number, now call me maybe. “You make me sound like a whore!” . Seriously, don’t talk to me.</p>

<p>neggs07199123 - Did you know kinder surprises are banned in the US? And even worse, bucky balls are getting harassed now with only a handful of injuries from millions sold…</p>

<p>stressedasian152 : You seem to be a high performing model of a paradigm I wish you to break. Perhaps I am wrong, and am a presumptuous, silly old man.

<p>Holocene : I would say “You know I love you buddy”, but I just found out your a girl. So uh… I will quote The Elephant Man (One act part I’m playing now): </p>

<p>“I planned so many things to say. I forget them. You are so beautiful.” </p>

<p>You: How Charming Mr. Merrick</p>

<p>“Well. Really that was what I planned to say. That I forgot what I planned to say. I couldn’t think of anything else I was so excited.”</p>

<p>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</p>

<p>Archive : Just another name for the <em>PA TOw</em></p>

<p>Redchair : Mhmm</p>

<p>Nikke813995 : Nike’s stocks doing well… well at least solidly. Uh yeh I don’t know if thats true recently… But on the past twenty year scale… you uh yeh.</p>

<p>some11no : Haha I get it, like some “one” knows</p>

<p>AngelOfSpeed : :smiley: Love your inputs up to the release</p>

<p>HugoV65 : Uh, HugoChavez is the first thing that came to my head.</p>

<p>Timothyhses : Vaguely remember some of your posts. Wow that wasn’t… Uh congrats. :stuck_out_tongue: Seriously though have a great time! Look forward to our first interaction.</p>

<p>stanfordsuccess : the form is in the name</p>

<p>SocalPapa : Hey, that’s where I was born!</p>

<p>May you all radiate love, life, and happiness throughout this oscillating consciousness and experience we are sharing! I look forward to our collaboration in our experiences of another now! Center yourself, find your meaning and that divine passion, and launch with the power of nature’s glory! Embrace your Self and the Bliss!</p>

<p>ccuser95 : Mmmmh :smiley: If only I had a name and face to match posts in my brain. Comes back to that ineffective internet/social discovery situation.</p>

<p>castroyesid : Congrats! You deserve it. What else do you wish to bring to yourself?</p>

<p>Oh btw, you guys admitted here make up 4% of the SCEA Stanford Student Body! Congrats for that! And people who didn’t get in, just realize how ridiculously few students actually get admitted from such a strong applicant body. But luckily for us, the human social body is full of great potential!</p>

<p>@hagin…
I said that to you? Did that turn into a big deal? Apparently it did because it looks like all the posts about that were deleted. Sorry it became in any way defensive. It’s a bit harsh to out of ALL the other people tell me never to speak to you again because of that.</p>

<p>@ haginrainbow hmm you probably didn’t like me haha but I always found your sarcasm hilarious. Some of your posts actually made me laugh out loud, yes lol in real life, a rare thing to find on CC. You’ll probably get into a great school without luck but good luck anyway!</p>

<p>I have so much I want to share with you guys and talk to you all about(:
I’m so excited ahhhhh!! =)</p>

<p>Should we add each other on Facebook? :3</p>

<p>@amy: I think he was just joking about you not speaking to him again… I hope I’m right(:</p>

<p>Hmm I don’t knooow…although I’m too much of an emotional wreck/sleep deprived and sensitive to understand any communicational nuances right now especially on the Internet…</p>
