<p>wow its almost timee. i was jsut wondering how does everyone feel? excited? nervous? plus im kinda new ive only posted a few times here and there so i would like 2 introduce myself im katie and im 15 and im applying 2 stpauls onlyy sooo yeah but im excited and not that nervous im not gonna like pass out if i dont get accepted or anythingg haha</p>
<p>Nervous. Quite nervous. I spent 15 minutes yesterday evening convincing someone how likely it was that I wouldn’t get into a single school I applied to. ;)</p>
<p>2 DAYS LEFT!!!
I’m REALLY nervous too. haha prettyckitty today i was convincing my friend that my chances are very slim and that I wouldn’t get in a single school I applied to…but I hope I do. =P</p>
<p>my friends are trying to convince me not to leave and I told them i probably wont get into anywhere for an hour</p>
<p>ha , me too .
i have to be like " i prob won’t leave ."
when ppl ask me about going !
i can’t wait tho . this year is diff cuz i didn’t tell EVERYONE i was applying like i did last year :P</p>
<p>Who did everyone tell? I only told my immediate family, though eventually they told other people, and others guessed. I didn’t plan on telling anyone until it was certain I was going, if it happened at all.</p>
<p>My parents told like EVERYONE. Now all my friends and their parents are like “I’m keepin my fingers crossed for saturday!!!” and I was like “what?!” and they’re like “You know, your big day!” I was like OMG how does everyone know! RUMERS DO TRAVEL FAST. Oh, and my computer teacher heard from my English teacher who did a rec. and was like “E-mail me on Saturday to let me know if your going to go!!! I know you’re going to get in. You’re in my prayers!!!” </p>
<p>It seems as if I’m the Anna Nicole Smith of my town and school! Everyone talks about me and is ever so certain that I’m getting in. </p>
<p>I’m so scared because i doubt i’ll get in and I don’t really want to tell the whole world that I’m a reject! lol.</p>
<p>I feel your pain. My mom told my then-girlfriend’s mom, who now is apparently planning a surprise party for me. Not quite Anna Nicole, but still annoying.</p>
<p>You think thats embarasing! My mom told my Grandma, who told her DOCTERS. She also tells them my grades, my rewards, like everything! Everytime I see her she’s like, my Pediastrist said good luck on march 10th! That’s OK though, because she an awsome Grandma, it’s just really funny when she tells people about me.
Also, my whole 200 hundred person Italian family knows about, it was used as an example sentence in my Spanish class by my teacher, and all my friends, my non-friends, and my friends parents know. Its kind of fun, but really increases the stress! :)</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone on March 10th!!! :)</p>
<p>Nobody knows except my parents and I (and possible some of my dad’s colleagues). It’ll make the rejection less embarrassing. :D</p>
<p>If I get rejected it will be embarrassing :D</p>
<p>My whole school knows - all my friends know - family friends know - parents colleagues who’s children go to prep schools know - EVERYONE KNOWS!</p>
<p>hahahaha prepstar!!!</p>
<p>My aunt works as a manager of an ER at a huge hospital around here. My grandmother was in the hospital a few months ago, so I went for a visit. My aunt told everyone who works there “This is my neice, and she’s going to Phillips Academy next year!!!” and then she raved about how smart I am and all the nurses and doctors think I’m the greatest thing ever. I was like uhhh what doesn’t everyone understand?! I APPLIED!!! I didn’t and do not have 50% confidence that I will even be admitted, never mind financial aid that I need!</p>
<p>i told my family , friends , and teachers last year .
this year only a few friends know i reapplied , teachers know, and duh , family knows!</p>
<p>A lot of people know, because right now picking your classes and stuff for the high school is really big, so everyone’s always asking where you’re going. I really should have lied in retrospect.
So much simpler.</p>
<p>I am terrified. I don’t want to open those letters. I want… NEED to go to prep school sooo badly. Next year, I can only have 1 elective because the rest is taken up by academics (doubling up on sciences), so I can’t be in journalism AND advanced art… which is definitely not good whatsoever.</p>
<p>Also, I can’t stand telling my overconfident teacher and guidance counselour that I didn’t get in (if I don’t)… that’d be embarassing on my part. But I guess it’s a good experience with or without the admittance.</p>
<p>i only told my teacher and a few other people i dont want anyone 2 know unless i get accepted. omg we find out tomorrow! im soo excited! lol
good luck everyone!!! make sure to post where you got accepted :)</p>
<p>so i had my chinese dance teacher write my rec’s so she knew i was applying to andover. and i told some of my close friends at dance troupe, but that’s about it.
apparently at ballet the other day one of the dance troupe moms was talking to my mom:</p>
<p>“congratulations to jenny! i heard she got in.”
and my mom was like uhhhhhh no results don’t come for another week or so. and then the other mom goes; “ohh but everyone’s been saying that she’s gotten in.”</p>
<p>so the pressure’s on lol cause then my whole dance troupe will know if i didn’t actually get in because they all think i did.</p>
<p>You dance!!! Me, too!!! It’s my love and passion. =]</p>
<p>Advice we gave D was not to talk it up too much with friends, etc. in case she did not get accepted.</p>
<p>I’ve told everyone at school, and my friends, and their parents, but it’s a usual thing for people here to apply to boarding school, so they’ve experienced rejections and acceptions in the past few years.</p>
