<p>yea the earlier the better, cuz if i get deferred, i’m gonna be inundated with 7 other college apps and essays.</p>
<p>how many deferred kids end up getting accepted?</p>
<p>Don’t know, though I think somewhere someone said it’s a higher rate than some of the other Ivy League schools.</p>
<p>I linked to this somewhere else, but here’s last year’s CC thread about students who were deferred/rejected. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=47016&page=1&pp=20[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=47016&page=1&pp=20</a> It was good to see that the ones who didn’t end up getting in still went to really great schools.</p>
<p>theoneo… youve had 46 posts since noon. good god man!</p>
<p>Haha. Most of those posts were on either the RSI thread or the SAT Math Level 2 test (which I took today) threads.</p>
<p>There are six kids in my school (that I know of) applying early to yale.</p>
<p>how frustrating is that?</p>
<p>there are 13 in my grade. i win.</p>
<p>I’m the only person applying to Yale at my school. At all.</p>
<p>There’s one boy applying ED to Dartmouth (where I’m applying RD) and then one girl hoping to go to Cornell. I suppose there could be other people applying to Cornell that I just haven’t heard about (that’s the only Ivy anyone from my school has gone to in years), but probably not.</p>
<p>It’s probably a good thing in some ways, but it also tells you about the competitiveness and college-preparation of my school. Many of my good friends who are very smart don’t seem to think about applying to top tier schools.</p>
<p>Same number at my school filmxoxo17. Gotta love new york.</p>
<p>13? Holy ****.</p>
<p>Thats insane.</p>
<p>oh you guys are in nyc so id assume a magnet school or a good private school?</p>
<p>4 people at mine</p>
<p>2 early; maybe 5 or 6 in total.</p>
<p>3 people (including me) at mine</p>
<p>yeah bobbobbob private school. nyc… lots and lots of kids applying to ivys. lots and lots and lots.
i was looking at the yale face book and i think the biggest region represented was new york. and then like california or something. but yeah. i want to get away from this damn cosmopolitan bubble! </p>
<p>no i dont… :)</p>
<p>im taking you all out to the ale house and all the beers are on me.</p>
<p>I’m the only one applying to Yale at mine. One other boy wants Georgetown, and a girl is hoping for Columbia. <em>Sighs</em> At least I don’t have to worry about the fabled “inter-school competition.”</p>
<p>no beer for me. there are like a million gazillion jillion calories. plus it tastes dreadful.
give me a double scotch with ice. ;)</p>
<p>Yea I feel you.</p>
<p>The only place worse than nyc…long island.</p>
<p>haha.</p>
<p>ok then we can smoke pot and watch gilligan’s island.</p>
