<p>Hey, Postal, don’t Samtheclam’s SAT scores give us all hope… ahh… I scored a 2050, even though my GPA isn’t near what hers is. 
it’s only a 3.5UW</p>
<p>i’m not too bothered about the sat scores :</p>
<p>i got a 2220. buuut. i’m just… AH. :(</p>
<p>dieldhun’s gpa should give you hope 
i only have like a 3.6 too :</p>
<p>so i just called. and i asked her whether or not my app was still under review and she said, “you will get your decision by mail from now until april 1st”</p>
<p>soooo since she pretty much ignored my question, i’ve probably been rejected.</p>
<p>:( saad.</p>
<p>Dang… a 2220, I can’t imagine why they wouldn’t accept you. When I called they said that a decision hadn’t been made yet. I wonder if that means anything.</p>
<p>hey postalxservice…just thinking out loud here but isn’t it possible that rejections will go out last. Like maybe on April 1st and if anything is coming out before, then maybe it might be good news?</p>
<p>mainevent me too!!!</p>
<p>chappa that way of thinking is WAY too optimistic for me.</p>
<p>plus… maybe she just chose to word it in a vague and ambiguous way. honestly, i’m going to die.</p>
<p>i think i’ve already been rejected :(</p>
<p>maybe i should call again…</p>
<p>if i think about it, they’ve only said “your application is still in review” to me once. it’s a fact. i’ve been rejected.</p>
<p>edit: okay i just called again and i specifically asked whether or not it was still under review and he said they haven’t made a decision yet.</p>
<p>basically, i think we’re all reading too much into this. i think they’re all required to tell you only whether or not your app is complete… and you will always hear something along the lines of “…APRIL 1st!!!..”</p>
<p>asodjasojdao i think i’m going to give up.</p>
<p>you don’t know that yet postal!! don’t worry we still have time</p>
<p>I don’t think anybody would get into trouble just because they called too many times about their status…I mean isn’t that the point…that you really really want into USC?..I would keep calling…maybe somebody will take pity on you say something…</p>
<p>■■■■■, chappa.</p>
<p>lol that’s actually what i’m kind of hoping for. i already called in twice today…</p>
<p>maybe i’ll save iit for some other time.</p>
<p>i’m going to be pretty damn sad if i don’t get in…</p>
<p>and a bit angry.</p>
<p>but mostly depressed. :(</p>
<p>because you will miss out on custom hugs next year?</p>
<p>hehe…soooo creepy.</p>
