Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) (2023-2024)

[tidal tree]

instate?

[simple hill]

not dumb

its normal

[tidal tree]

it is both

it is normal and dumb

[smoky sonnet]

girlfriend? you cant be a real a2cer

[trim sand]

I’d argue against the Entrepreneurial part. Schools do contribute to the peer group and sprit — beyond any schools has ~ same demographics.

[tidal tree]

but if your parents have 400k lying around it doesnt really matter

just do what u want

[tidal tree]

to clarify, it is a normal thing to want to do

most rational people do not do it, because it is a bad idea

[wheat moon]

You read that wrong

[tidal tree]

nope

i read it right

[lime gazelle]

But I haven’t done that much research

[wheat moon]

Read again

[tidal tree]

again, i read it right

if ur paying OOS for CS go to cmu

[wheat moon]

Hmm

[tidal tree]

it's a huge waste of money, unless 360k is pennies to your parents

[vagrant niche]

they probably struggled to send you that email, and are releasing admitted student emails on a rolling basis

[tidal tree]

but if you must, then go cmu

[wispy perch]

Two weeks 💀

It’s gonna be a hassle

But possible

[tidal tree]

wtf fucking money do yall come from??? god damn

[wheat moon]

THAT WARN WAS UNFIAR. YALL DIDNT READ IT ROGHR

[versed shuttle]

🗿

[wispy perch]

Ryan air 😂

[tidal tree]

im too poor for this chat

im doing my schoolwork now

[wispy perch]

Same

im just gonna stay in my dorm probably and die and snide

[rustic yarrow]

i mean, you have great options, i think you’ll be fine no matter what school you choose lol

[wispy perch]

like every 3 weeks is better imo

2 weeks is overkill

but if u can handle it

Not bad

bro is suffering from success

[wheat moon]

So is it coming today at five or Friday at five

Carnegie loves the number 5.

[pulsar token]

CMU after rejecting my app

[shut fable]

Chat

Any possibility of it dropping in twelve minutes

[main cedar]

no

[wispy perch]

using instragram as a source of posting for a uni is quite embarrassing ngl

Like why not send an email

For such an important announcement

[chrome fulcrum]

[iron smelt]

[vivid sleet]

this is definitely gonna hurt people's opinions on accepting admission like fr

[lofty stirrup]

[gritty tusk]

yo send screenshot

[lofty stirrup]

[vivid sleet]

I like to enjoy my life a little

[warped sundial]

[lofty stirrup]

I hope so

[shut fable]

Where am I in the process?

[lofty stirrup]

[lofty stirrup]

[chrome fulcrum]

😭

[lofty stirrup]

where am I in the process? IM IN

[chrome fulcrum]

time to binge cmu videos

[vivid sleet]

John's Hopkins drops tomorrow but I applied as a joke so I don't care lmao

[unique flax]

chat can we arrest cmu?

[vivid sleet]

please

[chrome palm]

Where am I in the process? We don’t know either

[shut fable]

Can we sue them for emotional damage

[vivid sleet]

the real question is where are THEY in the process

[lofty stirrup]

ONG.

[chrome palm]

They’re meticulously releasing decisions

[lofty stirrup]

CAUSE IM IN

im sorry

[vivid sleet]

I don't believe that

[hardy light]

The thing is, their CMU admissions insta page doesn’t seem to agree with the AOs in the live chat like bro, decide on one thing

[chrome palm]

“Our team acknowledges the anxiety and excitement that comes with college admissions but we do not care lol”

[autumn wing]

3.97 uw 1560 idk

lowk mid for my school

[vivid sleet]

tryhard alert

[autumn wing]

hey bro how’d not go for you

*mit

ur the ai sponge guy right

[chrome palm]

Damn imagine not having a 4.7 unweighted gpa and 1800 sat

[vivid sleet]

they turned down THE creator of the largest ai project online to date

[shut fable]

That’s a crazy chirp

[chrome palm]

That’s cool

[wispy perch]

https://tenor.com/view/misinformation-spreading-spreading-misinformation-online-gif-4543841945782036495

[kind prism]

[vivid sleet]

[chrome palm]

Profit fr

[autumn wing]

[shut fable]

4.0 1570 and got rejected from mit and ghosted by cmu ☹️

[chrome palm]

Bros actually a king

[kind prism]

prayers for you twin

[vivid sleet]

390k usd if YouTube accepted me into the partner program

[ebon prairie]

Did a batch j drop?

[hardy light]

No

[shut fable]

Also rejected from unc which was extremely cringe of them

[chrome fulcrum]

youl get in bro

[chrome palm]

Lol I was accepted in there when I posted roblox videos

[shut fable]

thanks

[chrome palm]

I made a discord server bot that bans you for playing Genshin impact

[vivid sleet]

I think they turned me down because I was only a livestream lol

[shut fable]

Ive had three consecutive dreams about cmu, does that count for demonstrated interest?

[chrome palm]

True

You need some threshold hours and views lol

[vivid sleet]

so close! this is called being a sad person❤️

[chrome palm]

Tiktok live goes hard tho

[shut fable]

[shut fable]

R u a tik tok brainrot live streamer?

[vivid sleet]

and I had both by miles but they hated that I was livestream only

[upbeat kernel]

everything the live chat be saying doesnt end up being true tho

[shut fable]

Also probably a brand risk for them

[upbeat kernel]

imma just stop accepting

expecting*

[oak dew]

Same with the insta

[chrome palm]

Tiktok automated games are great ngl

[upbeat kernel]

im a senior

[oak dew]

What’s wrong with a junior

[gusty snow]

they not a junior lol

[vivid sleet]

AND NOT PEOPLE LIKE LEAFYISHERE???😭😭

[upbeat kernel]

i dont be updating my flairs

[chrome palm]

Easy profit

[upbeat kernel]

hi sami

[vivid sleet]

HE GOT REMONETIZED BRO

[gusty snow]

hi amil

[chrome palm]

Because popularity lol

YouTube has never been fair

Me getting demonitized for putting .5 second copyright audios

[vivid sleet]

is 250,000,000 views in 3 months and multiple news articles not popularity

[fallen pike]

thought leafy got banned

[hardy light]

Even the insta account, they said it would start releasing Monday and yet here we are

[upbeat kernel]

yea

[chrome palm]

You’re delivering high quality content that YouTube doesn’t like

[upbeat kernel]

whatever i have more decisions coming now to distract me

no way this whole thing helps cmu's yield tho

[vivid sleet]

THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING

[gusty snow]

there’s no way this doesn’t hurt them

[hardy light]

It does and they have realized it

Check their admissions account

[inland crypt]

Did a new wave come out?

[hardy light]

They acknowledge that the rolling admissions have caused anxiety and frustration

so they will just release all remaining decisions on Friday

[weary wave]

mit buggin

[eternal stream]

oh my god thats somehow even worse 😭

[chrome palm]

They said by April 1st lol

[sweet fossil]

hi

[weary wave]

i thought i had a chance cuz i wrote all my essays about coding and my progress self-teaching programming since 10 yo

[vivid sleet]

it was the 1460 sat bro my reading killed me

[hardy light]

Well the live chat says all remaining will be done by Friday so…

[weary wave]

what was ur math

[vivid sleet]

790

[gusty snow]

μ 🤫🧏‍♂️

[weary wave]

realistically its probably not that

did u apply ea?

[vivid sleet]

I have an outside circumstance

yeah ea

[weary wave]

rejected?

or deferred rejected

[vivid sleet]

yeah

[sweet fossil]

i applied w a 1150 is it over

[vivid sleet]

defer reject

[weary wave]

damn

[vivid sleet]

I had hope

[fallen pike]

Wait is the ai spongebob dude here 😭

[vivid sleet]

yes bro

[fallen pike]

Zamn

[vivid sleet]

I've BEEN here

[weary wave]

idk if 1460 is too low or not with 790 math

[fallen pike]

it definitely is lol

[vivid sleet]

670 English killed me lol

[fallen pike]

Cute pfp

[weary wave]

damn.

[sweet fossil]

guys a 1460 is fine

[vivid sleet]

THE WORST PART IS THAT I GOT A 39/40 IN GRAMMAR

[sweet fossil]

for cmu

[vivid sleet]

IT WAS ALL THE ACTUAL READING

[vivid sleet]

not cmu cs lmfao

[sweet fossil]

nah trust

essays can carry

trust

[vivid sleet]

nuh uh

[shut fable]

Ai SpongeBob will carry you trust

[sweet fossil]

also isn't

cmu test optional

[weary wave]

🙏

[fallen pike]

Bro could cop pasted ai sponge dialogue and it’d be more original than 90% of college essays

[weary wave]

thats so cool im jealous i didnt come up with that idea 😭

[shut fable]

I think test optional is worse this year for applicants

[weary wave]

what was ur backend for text generation?

[sweet fossil]

oh this is why im getting cooked !

[vivid sleet]

on god im PRAYING to get into CMU, Stanford, and Vanderbilt but probably only vandy is happening

[shut fable]

Most schools have released data showing that those who are test optional have a lower acceptance rate

[sweet fossil]

i want vandy but i think i chose a bad major so i think its over

for me

[sage oriole]

when does vandy release?

[vivid sleet]

I just hope the colleges see how big of a stride for the future of AI that ai sponge is

[vivid sleet]

idk lmao

[upbeat kernel]

vandy iffy for cs anyways

[sage oriole]

It's still vandy tho

[jolly mulch]

is vanderbilt easier to get into than cmu

[vivid sleet]

I love everything about vandy so bad bro I've visited my cousin there twice it is perfect all around

[fallen pike]

For cs probs

[fallen pike]

if you're going test optional the rest of your app is probably also worse

that shouldnt be surprising

[weary wave]

facts

[shut fable]

True

[vivid sleet]

that should help me PRAYING

[shut fable]

Bruh washu tomorrow before cmu is crazy

[vivid sleet]

ON GOD

[upbeat kernel]

https://www.reddit.com/r/csMajors/comments/1ah10x2/400_applications_sent_not_even_1_interview/ valid, ive just been spooked by this post

[fallen pike]

not necessarily that you're less qualified but the low resources/other factors that prevented u from doing well on the sat probably would have impacted the other part of ur app like ecs and essays

[shut fable]

I don’t understand how people don’t khanacademy max to get a good sat score

[fallen pike]

Sat reading has always been tough for me tbh. Some passages just suck.

[sweet fossil]

i didnt apply cs but i have a feeling i still shot myself in the foot

[jolly mulch]

has anyone seen any specific date mantioned for when decisions come out this week for cmu

[sweet fossil]

this is like the avg csmajors post

[shut fable]

Friday

[weary wave]

facts

[shut fable]

First year of missing out on the psat and sat memes

[weary wave]

reading some dumb history article is so painful

[upbeat kernel]

true

[vivid sleet]

im autistic i cant read for SHIT lmfao

[vivid sleet]

you just gotta have good experience with cs in the past on your resume

[shut fable]

By good score I don’t mean 1500+ like anything 1300 and up is doable with study I think idk tho

[weary wave]

did yall who applied to mit also get an interview really fast

[hardy light]

nah

[vivid sleet]

yes literally within the hour of my sending my application in

[hardy light]

i didn't get mit interview

but i was waitlisted

[sweet fossil]

does anyone know when rice is comimng out

[weary wave]

yeah i got mine within a day

[unborn mesa]

they havent said anything i don’t think

[sweet fossil]

bro

vro.

[weary wave]

i thought it was really good looks

[shut fable]

I got my mit interview pretty quick but I got rejected so

[warped sundial]

bro same

[fallen pike]

They assign interviews really quickly sometimes even like 30 minutes after you submit your application

[warped sundial]

i got perfect writing and 1 wrong math

[fallen pike]

I forgot how much i got wrong/right

[sage oriole]

I have perfect math

they like that right?

[warped sundial]

no

they want 810+

[sage oriole]

does SAT ever make up for gpa?

my weighted it tuff UW is mid

[fallen pike]

Unless you go to a tough school, not really

[weary wave]

do schools actually care about AP test scores

[fallen pike]

Gpa is 4 years of work while sat is 3 hours

[hardy light]

i think the 25th percentile of admitted students is 790 math so yeah, definitely like it

[weary wave]

i got a 3 on apush cuz im rather slow at history classes

[sage oriole]

ACTUALLY

[fallen pike]

It just reinforces the data points they have

[sage oriole]

790 for 25th wtf

that's insane

[hardy light]

MIT moment

[weary wave]

💀

[sage oriole]

hmm

[fallen pike]

no shit 💀

[upbeat kernel]

i honestly think its correlation

[spark fog]

Shit is NOT releasing

[weary wave]

friday 5pm

[spark fog]

Wow

[loud cape]

Friday

5 p.m.

[hardy light]

the fact that it's also pinned

[fierce folio]

@fresh spoke

[main cedar]

No

[chrome fulcrum]

for me

yes

but I had extenuating circumstances

and really good ecs

[sage oriole]

I have insane Ecs

and extenuating circ asw

[chrome fulcrum]

3.65uw(all bs freshman) 1480 sat , accepted ECE cmu

[civic hound]

[balmy beacon]

Yes because live chat has been SO reliable

[sage oriole]

1590 superscore

i'm still cooked

bc I picked CS

[chrome fulcrum]

💀

😭 5 is crazy

[cerulean crow]

aw it didnt come out at 5
its coming out at 6 guys

[hardy light]

The insta admissions page is just as reliable as the live chat, mentioned monday release ghosted us thereafter

[cerulean crow]

trust me

[river hedge]

is cmu out yet

[cerulean crow]

no

[unique flax]

22 min

[river hedge]

is that a a2c guess or a cmu verified time

[spring summit]

We need a counter for how many times this question is asked lmao

[fallen pike]

Look at their insta story

[sage oriole]

not even an a2c guess

just yap

[fallen pike]

Says by April 1

[river hedge]

i blocked them on insta

[upbeat eagle]

Is this confirmed or are you just hoping

[river hedge]

fuck those guys

[fallen pike]

Lmaooo

[unique flax]

https://tenor.com/view/misinformation-spreading-spreading-misinformation-online-gif-4543841945782036495

this is my proof

[warped sundial]

cmu doenst consider freshman year for gpa

[chrome fulcrum]

oh

[spring summit]

Irrefutable evidence

[finite anvil]

Did it drop?

[wispy perch]

https://tenor.com/view/mods-discord-mod-moderator-moderation-clash-of-clans-gif-24080525

[pulsar token]

it's coming on friday

at 5 ET

all remaining decisions are

[fallen pike]

Not anymore lol

[pulsar token]

at least according to their AO

[fallen pike]

Their instagram story says otherwise which is ran by admissions

[inland crypt]

NEW INFO CHAT

[finite anvil]

Lol

[chrome fulcrum]

congrats!🎉

[sage oriole]

SAY ONG?

[chrome fulcrum]

here I was thinking I was one of a kind

[opal smelt]

the two ppl i know who went test optional alr got into cmu. i submitted a 1510 and still haven’t heard back 🔥🔥🔥

[inland crypt]

Thanks future classmate

[fallen pike]

yea ik im just saying generally

the same constraints that prevented u from doing well on the sat probably impact the other parts of ur app

[inland crypt]

Nah

Grade inflation

And ppl can easily get good Ecs

Essays have nothing to do with sat

I dont think that really applies

[fallen pike]

bro

if ur from a rural area and fgli which is much more common in test optional vs test submitting applicants

ur prolly not gonna be able to have as good ecs as someone from a super resourced area who was able to go to test bootcamps and get like a 1580

and u probably have less access to resources that would help u write good essays

[inland crypt]

Many test opts are also rich

And pay their way into good ECs

And good essays

[fallen pike]

yes thats why i said generally

💀

[inland crypt]

Generally is bs

In some cases it works some cases it doesnt

I dont think a test opt app is weaker overall on average

[fallen pike]

ok

[pseudo adder]

CMU releasing on ivy day right

[chrome fulcrum]

😭

[cerulean crow]

yes

[chrome fulcrum]

where have you been

[inland crypt]

Hell nahhh

[chrome fulcrum]

the real question is. will cmu release?

[pseudo adder]

i have been refreshing the portal since march 15th 😭

[inland crypt]

@pseudo adder admissions office officially says next week

[cerulean crow]

i mean they also officially said monday

^ but theres also here

[chrome fulcrum]

didnt they say this friday?

[pseudo adder]

(this a likely for u)

[inland crypt]

According to the email w my likely letter

It says next week

[pseudo adder]

😭

[chrome fulcrum]

oh mb

[inland crypt]

So yea could be friday

Next week

[pseudo adder]

thats what they always say

friday

then monday

[unique flax]

[tired swallow]

[graceful oar]

Source?

[fast mesa]

i barely know this dude and im not bouta ask for a screenshot

mf

[hardy light]

unlikely

[fast mesa]

theres literally 0 reason for him to lie tho

its in a college application supp gc

cause he moved here last year from aus

[fallen pike]

i thought they were just releasing on friday

[chrome fulcrum]

they released emails this morning but he prob forgot to check last friday

[quasi quarry]

Still they release in batches no way not 1 person on A2C didn't get it

[fast mesa]

wait am i allowed to send pics

[chrome fulcrum]

yes

[fast mesa]

🤷‍♂️

[fast mesa]

this is actually more likely

[quasi quarry]

Or they just lying to us again

[fast mesa]

i could ask to clarify but im too lazy

i dont know this guy well enough

not tryna come off as a weirdo

[quasi quarry]

Just ask him it's chill lol

Like when u received it or smthing

But tbh atp it don't even matter

[fast mesa]

^

just wait for friday lmao

Yeah I’m kinda stupid

[hybrid flint]

[full kite]

yes they're in the same building but lets be so fr they're in the same building at cmu

[agile harness]

Did nothing drop today again?

[fallen pike]

Nope either Friday or who knows by the end of April

They said Friday via live chat, posted by April 1 on insta

[civic hound]

whats livechat

[agile harness]

Bro why did they lie on their instagram 😭

[near fossil]

no portal astrology

[graceful oar]

[steady thunder]

When you login after choosing a date, what do you see

Since u got in

[hybrid flint]

i love portal astrology

[graceful oar]

wait nvm i didnt log in lol

theres no way to verify that

since we dont know decisions

[stoic nexus]

email i got about that portal astrology a few days ago 💀

so its not real

[hybrid flint]

best portal astrology: if you receive a decision and it says you got in, you got in

[graceful oar]

wait no way 🤯

[quasi quarry]

yh its over

for me

I dont get that

[near fossil]

are yall dumb or what 💀

[muted moth]

nah it probably doesnt mean anything bro

[quasi quarry]

yh im rejected rip

ffs

[muted moth]

it was just what my friend said

[quasi quarry]

shouldnt have had high expectations

[near fossil]

always keep ur expectations low

[steady thunder]

Thanks @muted moth

[near fossil]

the only surprises u get should be good ones

[ebon scaffold]

plan for the worst, hope for the best

that is what i have been doing and i think it is the best coping mechanism

[quasi quarry]

yeah thanks @muted moth for letting me know I got rejected early

[steady thunder]

I just want a good uc bruh 😭

Too many waitlists

[ebon scaffold]

plan as if you didnt get accepted and so then if you do, it is even greater a joy

[near fossil]

i treated the source, so i dont need to cope 😭

[quasi quarry]

plan for the best, hope for the worst

[near fossil]

L take

[quasi quarry]

you guys dont see the vision

[ebon scaffold]

it obviously doesnt hurt to plan for all avenues

but i wouldnt get to invested in any one, even back up plans

because until decisions come out you dont know what you are doing

[near fossil]

yep

[hybrid flint]

other way around 😭 plan for the worst, hope for the best

[hybrid flint]

oops ;-; yeah real

[hybrid flint]

the rejection simulator helps imo

[near fossil]

what is that 💀

no way

thats a thing

HAHAHAHA

[hybrid flint]

i love it

[quasi quarry]

they should make an acceptance one

[hybrid flint]

i play rhe rejection simulator before opening my decisions

takes the edge off

[quasi quarry]

will help me practice for ivy day

[hybrid flint]

that's just self harm unless u get in

[cloud dagger]

Real I open alll my decicions so fast because of it

[hybrid flint]

the acceptance simulator is how you have people going "my life feels so empty, i expected to get in and then i didnt and i don't know what to do with my life because i imagined getting accepted so many times"

[sweet fossil]

i used the rejection simulator w hopkins

bro why did i even apply rd

who even makes ed

rd

or ed in fact

[ebon scaffold]

yeah i mean i REALLY wanna get into Dartmouth but ik that my chances are far from guaranteed - id like to think they are pretty good but it is almost a toss up it feels like - and so i am planning on attending UMich for CSE (got advance selection acceptance) and ik that will be a a really good plan

if i do get into dartmouth then that is amazing, but if not, no biggie

[sweet fossil]

i rly wanna go to any school bro

[quasi quarry]

umich better anyway tho

[ebon scaffold]

mmmmmmm i wouldnt say so

[near fossil]

do u have any acceptances yet

[sweet fossil]

u literally cannot hope on one school unless ur super cracked

i guess i should have clarified t20

yes i do have acceptsnces

[near fossil]

oh lmao

[cloud dagger]

Same

[sweet fossil]

i’m acc quite happy w my acceptances

[quasi quarry]

how dare you..

[sweet fossil]

but

[ebon scaffold]

what, big sports fan? 🤣

[sweet fossil]

getting into t20 would be

cool

[near fossil]

i got into a T5 but shit's not worth it cuz my instate option's more feasible

[hybrid flint]

yeah real. i applied to 4 safeties lol

[ebon scaffold]

yeah that is another thing, viability of options

[near fossil]

it hurts man

[quasi quarry]

not a big fan of american football, but if dartsmouth wasnt an ivy, you wouldnt have been saying that

[ebon scaffold]

for some, even the best school in their field just isnt viable because of cost

[hybrid flint]

aw sad

[ebon scaffold]

nah i was saying that in the sense that people argue UM is a good school because they have good sports 🤣

idk what you are talking about

i dont care if dartmouth is an ivy or not, i want to go there because, to me, it seems like the best fitting school

[quasi quarry]

my guyy umich is a strong tech school

[hybrid flint]

this a good mindset

[near fossil]

umich engineering is crazy

[quasi quarry]

exactly

[ebon scaffold]

based on what? rankings? everyone knows those don't mean anything

[quasi quarry]

and this guy complaining

[ebon scaffold]

although i am not denying that

ik it is a great school :)

im just saying rankings are over valued way too much

[near fossil]

nah, internships and opportunities at umich for engineering are just insane

[ebon scaffold]

oh trust me i know, i am not disapointed to attend

[quasi quarry]

honestly anything t10 for tech, just pick the cheapest option unless its mit or stanny

[ebon scaffold]

im just saying, the education experience at dartmouth would not be shit compared to umich, in fact id argue it would be much better

[fallen pike]

ur taking ut ece over uiuc cs?

[ebon scaffold]

to each their own

[near fossil]

unfortunately

[fallen pike]

why

[near fossil]

im a bit disappointed imo

[fallen pike]

i mean they’re basically the same

[near fossil]

ut's 25k a year

[fallen pike]

i’m disappointed too lol it’s ok we’ll get over it sometime

[near fossil]

uiuc's 60k a year, but apartment is 37k a year

[quasi quarry]

u made the right choice 100%

[near fossil]

ut's just cheaper

[fallen pike]

bro what why so expensive

[shut fable]

Hello cmu chat

Any updates

[fallen pike]

i had same reasoning for choosing cal

[near fossil]

i dont get fin aid

[hybrid flint]

damn uiuc cracked, i got rejected

[near fossil]

plus im oos

[fallen pike]

valid valid

ut better option

[near fossil]

i have a lot of friends at ut as well

it hurts cuz ik i wouldnt regret picking uiuc for its academics, which is my main factor

but the other factors just outweigh the academics

i wish i could give my acceptance to someone else but oh well

[hybrid flint]

oos uiuc cs is actually so insane you are unbelievably cracked

[near fossil]

thx lol

[quasi quarry]

frr

[fallen pike]

fr

[near fossil]

im praying for stanny atm

[fallen pike]

same

[hybrid flint]

i believe in u

[near fossil]

if i dont get stanny, prince, berk, or penn, im going to UT

[hybrid flint]

if u got uiuc cs oos surely you get stanny

[near fossil]

no way lol

i got rejected from ucsd and ucla

[shut fable]

Bro uiuc oos cs is literally like 4%

College admissions just be random like that

[hybrid flint]

i got waitlisted at both of those so it don't matter

u stand a chance

[quasi quarry]

its random

and unpredictable

[hybrid flint]

^^^^

[quasi quarry]

you can never predict

[near fossil]

but it wasn't pure cs, it was cs+physics. only 25 slots so the acceptance rate's a little higher, but yeah

[hybrid flint]

me too

[shut fable]

I got rejected from unc which I thought I had a decent chance at

[fallen pike]

sadly doesn’t work like that

[hybrid flint]

i know i know

i believe in them

[near fossil]

i didnt get pure cs anyway, so lol

[fallen pike]

prolly > 0.10 chance tho

[near fossil]

mmmm

nah

[hybrid flint]

0.1% or 10%?

[fallen pike]

worst case just go there for phd or mscs

[near fossil]

im looking to see the grad school acceptances for ut ece honors students

[fallen pike]

10%

[near fossil]

a few of them go to stanny for EE

which brings up my hope a bit

[hybrid flint]

ehhh idk about that. but i think their chances are not bad

[near fossil]

i have 6 acceptances so far

[hybrid flint]

www

[near fossil]

UT, UIUC, GT, davis, rose, and tamu

[fallen pike]

wdym lol 10% pretty accurate

[spring badger]

This is lowering cmu yield rate

[fallen pike]

he’s fs top 30% of stanford applicants

[hybrid flint]

yeah true

[near fossil]

rejects are caltech, ucsd, and ucla

[hybrid flint]

yeah okay fair

[spring badger]

They’re funny if they think they’re gonna release after ivy day

[hybrid flint]

my only reject so far is uiuc 💀

[little urchin]

has admissions put any update on instagram?

[near fossil]

im praying my stanny interview does smth tho, thats the only thing i got now

[hybrid flint]

(i lose that when berk comes out)

[near fossil]

solid, how many As

[spring badger]

UIUC rejection hurts

It hurt more than my Columbia ED rejection

[near fossil]

my caltech rejection hurt the most

but i think it was for the best cuz i got humbled

[hybrid flint]

11

[near fossil]

since then i lowered my expectations and it honestly made me happier lol

[near fossil]

W

whats ur best one so far

[spring badger]

Caltech must’ve been hard This year

[hybrid flint]

i'll send in dms

[near fossil]

yeah rly tough

[spring badger]

My isef usapho 1580 friend got waitlisted

[hybrid flint]

nooo :c

[spring badger]

It’s brutal out here yall

But it’s not over

[little urchin]

does anyone have any information on this

[wispy snow]

caltech admits like negative people bro

like korea's declining population

[spring badger]

Lmao

It’s an insanely small school

[wispy snow]

yeah

800 ppl?

literally a highschool

[hybrid flint]

YEAH

[ebon scaffold]

[buoyant saddle]

[river hedge]

OATS 15A 3 WL 1R is typing.

[kind prism]

[wind grotto]

Bro why would they bother trying to seek me out if they can’t even roll decisions in the first place ☠️

[obtuse phoenix]

yoo congrats

[opal smelt]

chat is this real? people got decisions today?

[wheat moon]

i dont trust no brandon

[ebon scaffold]

not from what people have been saying today

i feel everyone would be freaking out if so

[wheat moon]

i wouldnt turst a clout chaser

[weary wave]

i am very doubtful anyone got decisions today

also i dont understand how he can say he hasn't seen any pattern on his students getting accepted or rejected... like i'd hope his AR is higher than normal...

[autumn wing]

thx vroooo

[solemn sage]

I wouldn’t trust any advisors or private counselors on TikTok

Many of them don’t know jack shit

[ebon scaffold]

yeah lol 🤣

[hollow ivy]

bro probably has 3 students ofc he cant see a pattern

[hollow ivy]

honestly what this guy said does make sense

but yeah generally theyre wrong

[onyx falcon]

did cmu release more

[wispy perch]

This guy is the biggest yapper

[cerulean arch]

I despise college content makers

They are bloodsuckers who feed off of years of kids applying to higher education

Grassroots a2cers honestly are better people

[wispy perch]

It’s like the sat subreddit and going to a sat prep course which would cost a few hundred or a grand even

a2c is the same

[ebon scaffold]

i have had every question answered in this server lmao, saved so much time and worrying

[inland crypt]

WOAHHHH

[ebon scaffold]

so many people in here almost obsess over colleges and study them like they are physics or history almost, but im not complaining, saves me from doing research

[inland crypt]

aint no way

[inland crypt]

nah ppl prob just didnt check and got the email today

[autumn wing]

i know this is huge character development

[inland crypt]

wait r u viterbi

[autumn wing]

yeah

[inland crypt]

eng major?

EE?

[autumn wing]

yes

electecial and computer eng

[inland crypt]

im ngl if u choose usc over cmu for eng it would make sense but if anyone else in the world did it id call them crazy

well actually nvm

[wispy perch]

USC number 1 fan 😭

[inland crypt]

usc more fun

yea he got robbed

ea

if he doesnt get rd we are storming

and bringing the la gangs w/ us

[autumn wing]

i mean the weather and the location and plus like the employment for eng is pretty comparable between usc and cmu

[wispy perch]

USC is quite good for connections

[autumn wing]

awww this made me giddy

[wispy perch]

Ngl

[autumn wing]

but tbh im ecstatic with cmu i think i could handle a usc rejection if it comes down to it

[inland crypt]

trojan network goated fr

[hybrid flint]

my parents absolutely hate usc, they keep calling it the "university for spoiled children" idk what they got against it

[inland crypt]

not happening 😡 also lmao i realized cmu and usc coming out the same day for me

[autumn wing]

oh shoot yeah cuz the stupid waves thing

[inland crypt]

back in their day it prob had like a 90% acceptance rate and had 0 financial aid so it literally was university of spoiled children

[rustic oak]

is it still not

[hybrid flint]

ah yeah that makes sense

[autumn wing]

nah u actually need to be smart asf to get in now

they locked in

as a university

[rustic oak]

damn rlly

i j know bronny and olivia rodrigo went there

[autumn wing]

i mean the people there still tend to skew wealthier but now its hard asf

[ebon scaffold]

i think there is definetly a correlation between "smart" and rich

[hybrid flint]

i just need to lock in -> i just need to lock in -> i just need to lock in -> i just need to lock in -> i just need to lock in -> i just need to lock in

[ebon scaffold]

not necessarily very strong but there defintely is a correlation

[autumn wing]

bronny got recruited and olivia rodrigo takes like 2 classes there for shits n giggles

[rustic oak]

well obviously people with more money have more resources to help their kids

[inland crypt]

in terms of the spoiled children thing yea you can absolutely buy your way in. eg: varsity blues scandal, dr dre daughter, now fanatics ceo daughter (fanatics ceo michael rubin is having a building named after him this year)

but in terms of academics you have to be strong

[autumn wing]

yeah

[inland crypt]

honestly one of the very few pay to win schools left

most of the ivies stopped after varsity blues

usc has no shame

[ebon scaffold]

i think there is more of that going on than you may think, just cuz it aint public doesnt mean it isnt happening

[inland crypt]

but ye its hard to get in

[tawny moon]

yo cmu droppin when

[ebon scaffold]

if you are mega rich and your parents donate like 40mil in grants to yale...

[inland crypt]

oh yea absolutely. harvard has 100+ 'rowers' on their team when only like 20-30 can compete

the fake athletic recruitement bullshit goes on

...

[rustic oak]

yo anyone got a spare 400k 🙏

[ebon scaffold]

oh yeah! all those sports like that

sailboating

[inland crypt]

all those niche sports

like fencing

only the rich at elite boarding schools

can afford

[round monolith]

have ur CMU come out decision yet

[rustic oak]

real shit

[hybrid flint]

my parents keep making fun of the fact that someone paid to get in to usc because they dont view it as a very good school

[ebon scaffold]

how to get into ivy:

1. go to feeder boarding school
2. participate in fencing, sailboating, rowing or any other niche, expensive sport (you don't even need to be good)

[rustic oak]

niche sports suck booty beans

[gritty tusk]

nah i go to a public and we have fencing

[inland crypt]

i mean it was one of my dream schools last year and i loved the wbb program (didnt end up applying) but yea i got deferred ea and honestly i cared a lot less than i thought i would bc i realized it aint allat

[rustic oak]

the elitism is crazy sometimes

[gritty tusk]

but fencing is pretty rare

[rustic oak]

i’m a d1 hater 😤

[inland crypt]

very rare for publics to have it. anyways rich ppl have private training like multiple times a week

and their coaches are all former olympic winners

[gritty tusk]

bro what 💀

[inland crypt]

i have a friend who does fencing

its rlly like that

its crazy

rowing is the move fr

[ebon scaffold]

well even then, you don't even need to be good at some sports to get it; if you live in like oklahoma and have participated in sailboating all of high school then places know you have to be rich

[gritty tusk]

sailing in oklahoma is crazy

[ebon scaffold]

who the hell in oklahoma can afford to go sailboating 🤣

yeah exactly

[gritty tusk]

where is the water 😂

[ebon scaffold]

🤣

[ebon scaffold]

nostalgia overload
