Admission results are going to be in the portal right? Plain text “accepted”/“rejected”/“wait-listed” ?
(Might try and write some code that will tell me the results in a cool way

@QueenZi nice to see another coder. For my last one if I got rejected I made the flat trumpet sound play and the text be read out to me in the devils voice so I didn’t even have to look at it
@monk123
Yo.
What I did is suggests that i far more “ill minded” than you.
I want to write a code that instead of giving me a concrete boolean answer (i.e. “accepted”/“rejected”) , it gives me a statistical result (i.e “you are 71% rejected”). and with time this statistical results has a higher chances of beeing correct (it continues until an answer is 100% right).
That way, I will have more time to deal with the answer

Sorry for the bad wording. I am an international student and it is currently 2AM here. I currently posses no mental abilities to write in English
I’m pretty sure it shows a tiger with confetti if you are accepted
Party tomorrow!
@2sunny boi. For you maybe, but not for me
Hey all, I just wanted to repost this:
I wrote this to my son (last year) the night before Princeton SCEA decisions were announced (it was partially based on letters written by other CC parents to their students). I share it with you today in the hopes you won’t stress as bad tonight.
It is funny since right after I wrote it, I forwarded it to his mom and said we better prepare for a commiseration dinner since at best he’ll get deferred. As it turns out, he got lucky.
I hope it brings you similar luck, and if not, provides some small reassurance…
Best of luck to you all. And please remember that although this seems like a life and death issue, it does not define you, unless you let it. Don’t make that mistake. Instead, promise yourself you will succeed wherever you find yourself.
Cheers,
Psy
@psywar :)) great post…some will have a party… I just hope you all find your dream ;
@paneerchilli hey don’t be worried at all about your interview. My interview for early was literally 20 minutes long. I was so nervous but the person was really nice and she just wanted to talk briefly. I ended up getting accepted so I don’t think interview length says much.
In the spirit of @psywar here is the email I sent my Tiger last year as well:
"Forgive me for thinking like a father right now. Tomorrow, I know that you will hear results for your final colleges. Of course you know I wish nothing but the best for you. But I also know that there is a risk that the admissions committees at these schools will not have been able to truly see you as you are. I am debatably biased, but I know you to be a truly exceptional young man. There is nothing that can happen tomorrow that will ever change my opinion of you.
You have an amazing mind. You have an excellent work ethic (that sounds like such a lame compliment but, sitting on this side of forty, I know it not to be). You can and do enjoy both the simple and finer things. We can have fantastic, humorous, in depth conversations on almost any topic. We can simply sit next to each other, not talk, and still feel close knowing that we love each other.
Whatever college you get into, wherever you choose to go, you will have a bright and interesting future because you will make it so. Of that I have no doubt. Desiring some external kind of validation for all the work you have accomplished is of course understandable. It’s human. But that kind of validation is never necessary to become the person you want to be, a person that you will be proud of. I am already proud of you and could not be more so. And while I hope we have something wonderful and happy to celebrate tomorrow, the reality is I celebrate every day that you are my son.
Love,"
@ChartresBlue Wonderful ! I-)
@ChartresBlue that is so sweet!! :(( :x
I’ve done a lot of lurking (and some posting) on this thread and I just wanted to say: it’s been amazing to have people to commiserate with through this suspense. So I hope you all get amazing news
@Berrycupcake It truly is nice to revel in the anxiety together. I only wish the best for everyone on this thread and I’m glad I am able to share this experience with other people. For that, I just want to say: thank you!
@Gnarling Well put! There’s a catharsis to reading these posts and knowing that you’re not alone in this process, that there are others who are just as nervous as you. Thanks everyone!
When the admission decision come out, it’s like 5:00 am in my country. This is terrible. I can not even sleep. ^:)^
@mingmingmiko try to go to bed at normal time and then check decisions when u wake up
