Yale '07 Applications Down

[tokenadult]

<p>

t’s a painful process to put oneself up for evaluation and risk ‘rejection’ from faceless strangers, but it’s how all college applications are, and in later life, when you apply for jobs, it will be similar. (So think about founding a company!)

</p>

<p>Yes, because then the challenge will be being evaluated by customers. Some people like that worse than being evaluated by bosses. Everyone has to prove himself every day in the adult world. </p>

<p>Um, I was pretty astonished about the “probability problem” in post #60. A lot of people on CC reason that way, but those who do usually don’t fare well in admission, because that is not correct reasoning about probability. </p>

<p>Good luck to this year’s applicants, and to all the current college students pursuing their studies.</p>
