<p>Ay, this is a lose-lose situation for me! :(</p>
<p>My exams start on Tuesday morning. </p>
<p>If I get bad results on Monday, I will be too depressed to study and fail my exams.</p>
<p>If I get good results on Monday, Senioritis will take its final blow and I will fail my exams (because I felt no need to study!).</p>
<p>It is a done deal.</p>
<p>^ i feel you. That’s why I’m hoping somehow results come out tomorrow and i can process everything…</p>
<p>Guys, no need to feel such pressure. Just imagine looking back to this waiting in 5 years. It’s no big deal. Wherever we end up we will still be who we are, right? I’m not saying that we should not bother about yale’s decision, but just “keep calm and carry on” with our lives. Whether it is a cong or rej, we shouldn’t let one decision affect anything. Anyway, no one can judge us except ourselves.</p>
<p>BTW, I’m quoting my mother. She is one of the inspirations of my life.</p>
<p>Good advice. Best of luck to everyone. Even if it doesn’t seem like luck was on our side on Monday, it might of been in the long run :)</p>
<p>they emailed all yale students saying prospective class of 2018 kids will get decisions on monday</p>
<p>whatd they say to the current yalies?</p>
<p>Reading this thread is helping me and my excitement. I am the only one from my school to apply to Yale (or any ivy) this year (or ever!!) so being able to talk to other Yale applicants really helps put things in prospective. I can’t wait until Monday! Not sure what to do with my Yale sweatshirt I bought when I visited if I get rejected… It is quite cozy… (:</p>
<p>Good luck to all applicants!</p>

I didn’t get that email, should I be worried…?
And it says that they don’t have my mid-year report but that’s after first semester right?</p>
<p>let me clarify…</p>
<p>Yale emailed all current yale students saying prospective/SCEA class of 2018 applicants will get decisions on monday</p>
<p>oh jesus thank you. LOL</p>
<p>Yeah, sorry about that, guys. The lady must have misspoke. It’s only one more day until decision day, though!</p>
<p>I’m guessing the admissions officers are under a lot of stress right now</p>
<p>This kind of sucks, though. I get out at 1 on monday and have to immediately cram for a physics test on tuesday. I don’t know that I’ll be able to focus considering the fact that by 5:00 I could know whether or not I need to pull all nighters every week for the rest of the trimester :(</p>
<p>Can someone chance me?</p>
<p>Just kidding. Guyz chill. It’ll be alright. Five of my friends just got rejected from Stanford and they all still dealt with it positively. It really put things into perspective for me.</p>
<p>^ lol for a second i was like…</p>
<p>i also applied scea to yale, just found this thread and I’m cracking up because it reminds me of something…</p>
<p>i’m in boy scouts. So a few years ago, I’m sitting at this super-intense boy scout election for who’s going to be in charge of the ‘section’ (~the area of a state, depending on the state obviously, but i’m from MO). So something weird has happened with the votes and the advisers are scrambling, pulling out guidebooks and making phone calls and all kinds of stuff. So there’s just been this long, awkward pause between the ~70 of us in the little amphitheatre by the lake. So out of nowhere to break the tension up a little, this kid stands up and shouts “I CAN’T HANDLE THE PRESSURE!” and then jumps into the lake screaming his head off. 
oh my gosh it was so great. </p>
<p>so anyway I dunno if anyone else thought that was funny, but i at least was amused and felt less pressured for a second. I guess the moral of this story is if you’ve got butterflies in your stomach… go jump into the lake.</p>
<p>@HaikuHippo</p>
<p>Lol thx a lot for your amusing story!!! Comforting indeed. Makes me feel a little bit better. Yale normally accepts one student from my HS each year, and I just really really hope that it’ll be me. Anyway, I need a story like this to laugh about and for a minute forget all these anxieties. :)</p>
<p>What email did they send saying that it’s the 16th, I never got this email?</p>
<p>Also, I applied to Yale-NUS, I got called for an interview, but I chose not to do the interview. Does this mean I can’t get in?</p>
<p>@FlaWless007</p>
<p>They will send us an email ON THE 16th telling us that the decision has come out.</p>
<p>Don’t worry, the interview isn’t decisive and is only optional. Your chance for getting in stays the same. Good luck!</p>
