<p>yea, the level of maturity on the Yale board really speaks to the character of the applicants. :slight_smile: congrats guys! my commendations!</p>

122

<p>Wow you guys. The Columbia thread IS really scary. Though there were some positive notes from that thread, this one really makes me smile :slight_smile: “for some reason, the yalies have this real commaderie I have yet to see on any other board, I mean lots of people get along here, but not like the yalies” Yay! Go potential Yalies team! Of course, it couldn’t stay positive for long
“theyre all fake”.</p>

123

<p>Hahaha. They’re just jealous.</p>

124

<p>whoa whoa, 3 Bs is considered a “bad” transcript? damn

125

<p>jarahul, here is the video I referred to: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=9218&highlight=admission+video[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=9218&highlight=admission+video&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I don’t know if it was 3 Bs, but it was something dumb.</p>

126

<p>LOL
I’m up way too late or I would not be amused by this quote from the “down with the prediction list” thread at Columbia
 “not one person [from the Yale thread] listed number&decision prediction
they kinda just started talking abotu themselves
narcissistic nerdheads” HEHEHE
narcissistic nerdheads? That’s so funny
I’m still laughing! We’re narcissistic nerdheads!!! Where’s the doubling over with laughter smiley when you need it?</p>

127

<p>all right, ill check that out</p>

<p>but damn, 3 Bs = bad? damn.</p>

128

<p>Just wanted to note that I am, in fact, a girl. ;)</p>

129

<p>hahaha my bad</p>

<p>First, remember that we are looking at a line of text to determine an application that took 4 years and numerous hours to work on.</p>

<p>Secondly, Look at some of the stats for those who have no one predicitng acceptance as of yet:
1600
1560
1550
1490
1480
1450
1390
35</p>

<p>bebere ranked #3 (1580/800/800/760/98.1UW) has (10-1-0-1-0) while
Garyan13 rank#18(1560/800/790/760/96.5UW) has ( 0-2-7-0-0)</p>

<p>The legacy and likely letter look great, but the rest of us are so close togeather that those who score low shouldn’t feel as though they don’t have a chance.</p>

<p>But, if the 21% acceptance rate for CC EA held true, then admissions would go (based on the number of acceptance predictions) 18, 23, 2, 4, 5.</p>

131

<p>I completely agree. These predictions should be taken with a HUGE grain of salt.</p>

132

<p>as I wrote on the Columbia thread, this is just like playing the alphabet game in the car when you’re on a long trip
a game to pass the time. It will be fun to see how our guesses come out no matter how random they are. But in the mean time it keeps everyone busy and that’s a good thing
imho</p>

133

<p>Do you have the descriptions compiled together yet?</p>

134

<p>Honestly, how much can SAT I score matter after a certain level? With so much emphasis on activities and “hooks”, these SAT I scores seem almost extraneous.</p>
