The important COUNTDOWN

<p>9 days, 23 hours, 38 minutes, 5 seconds</p>

<p>Did you get this info in the mail? …your login and such? you can use this to check if you got accepted even though you applied by mail?</p>

<p>i just hope everyone is working on other apps just in case upenn defers or rejects us…(which hopefully wont happen though :))</p>

<p>oh i am… rutgers (accepted:)), cornell done, columbia almost done, jhu almost done… HYP… if i have time *won’t get in either way</p>

<p>yeti, that’s what winter vacation is for</p>

<p>i am away for christmas break, so i have to have all my applications done by December 23, but I have 9 out of 11 done just U. Va. and Northwestern, but both of those applications are really intense. So I have like less than 3 weeks to finish all the essays.</p>

<p>if i dont get in the apps before winter vacation, my counselor wont send it.</p>

<p>god im a ■■■■■■…im applying to “more selective” schools than upenn for RD. lol I havent done a single app yet…check out this list- (in order of preference)

  1. Stanford
  2. Princeton
  3. Cornell
  4. Carnegie Mellon
  5. MIT
  6. IIT
  7. Yale
  8. CU Boulder (my state school)
  9. Harvard</p>

<p>Yeti you should get working on the Carnegie Mellon app, the deadline is December 15 last time I checked.</p>

<p>im pretty sure its Jan. 1, i think the date your referring to is their ED II plan (im not even sure what that is lol)</p>

<p>lotti- yea, the information came in the mail and it should arrive even if you applied by paper.</p>

<p>Swarthmore has an EDII plan, too. My list used to have Harvard and Yale but then I thought, if I don’t get into Penn, what are my chances there? I have the applications done (They have been since October) so I still may just apply. But I’m really hoping none of us have to even think about college after the 14th (except how much Penn stuff we want to buy)</p>

<p>hahahaha amen to that brother</p>

<p>my collective personal jinx count continues to rise. </p>

<p>so peeps, when saying stuff like that, say “all of us, except 26e, who doesn’t even want his name indirectly associated with a theoretical link to news on the 14th that could feasibly be good, have to think about after december 14th is…” aight?</p>

<p>haha, ok</p>

<p>everyone, add an “except 26e” into my post!</p>

<p>:) thank u rex</p>

<p>i am of the opinion that i might just have a chance if i don’t think about it and am not associated with it until 14 dec :(</p>

<p>good luck not thinking about it. let me know your methods if you figure it out. i’m thinking that the only way will be to somehow sleep straight through the next week.</p>

<p>well, like i said, i’ve been getting natural highs (aka fever of 102), which have helped keep me out of it. generally, i just don’t think about it. just like that</p>

<p>ugh… i disgust myself… everyone who applied ED to a school is smoking like a pack a day… im not a particularly heavy smoker but i picked up the habit a little after i passed my app in… </p>

<p>whatever… come the 14th… no matter wat the decision im quitting… its just a majour stress reliever for the time being</p>

<p>that would be vodka, man. but smokes, eww. cigars, maybe, but cigarettes…nasty. U 18?</p>
