Dang, you got your decision from BC already? I thought they weren’t releasing until the end of May. Ugh, that means my decision is probably on its way as well now…

(/offtopic) Anyway, sorry to hear about your rejections. I just got my first one today, so I feel ya! These things are totally arbitrary, really - like, I know that I had competitive stats for Cornell CAS, but it just didn’t work out. It’s okay, though, because you WILL end up where you’re supposed to end up. Like I said, if it means taking a gap year and packing your C.V. with things that the ad-coms CANNOT ignore (assuming you’re willing to take a year off from school at this point), then that’s a good alternative to consider. It would most likely help enormously in getting you into the private schools you want to attend (and I completely understand the issue of public vs. private - I couldn’t even consider public uni’s after my experience at a state CC for the last two years). :)
