so damn good
MIT is really something
If they accept me, I can make them a video like that for next year 
where?
previous applicants
wait so not getting an interview means my chances are lower
i'd say yes as I've heard but I wouldn't be so sure of it. the alumni could really be unavailable in your region
i was just stating the rumors i heard
vroom
Any applicant who did not receive an interview will not be negatively impacted.
unless you denied an interview
wait but are interviews selective or not then
No
Purely availability based for MIT
No other factor whatsoever
It's only based on availability
I got one like 12 hours after I applied idk how
bro, even the portal is unavailable within 12 hours
that's crazy
Idk man I submitted my application for MIT back in October or Decemeber at like 9 PM and I remember I got an email at like 6 AM for an interview from a former graduate. He had a PhD in physics and we had a good chat and told me he would write a good interview report for me...and got deferred in EA...
I realized that like 9 hrs
But that's still FAST
I got mine like two weeks after I submitted
He was literally me in the future. CS degree with poli science
Did tech cnosulting like me
and he said I was a ownderfu lcandidate and he was definitely going to recommend me for admissions
and ofc deferred EA
Yeah same my guy had a PhD in physics and he was really young too, I think he was an engineer too and I also wanted to take Aerospace Engineering so yea it was fun to talk to him and learned a lot
Same here
Then yale emailed me last week for one LOL
Was not from my region
everyone gets deferred ea
most interviews r standard positives

nah
every time you !mit your chances increase by 0.5%
i dont make the rules i just enforce them
๐คซ ๐งโโ๏ธ
Bro is definitely not mew maxxing
they rejected me cuz i mogged the admissions committee too brutally
i actually got a letter saying never to apply again, they must really be mad
๐งโโ๏ธ
they sent me an unlikely letter

MIT my last hope I got rejected from Caltech
Damn
BRO Columbia got u
U have a pillow
To fall back on
ngl I'm so happy for the likely; if I didn't and I got rejected today I would be over the moon depressed bc that would be a deferall + 1 acceptance (uva so meh) + 1 rejection
Wait
Are u
From Va?

Same
oh wild
Which region
uhhh
i am south
OH
MIT if you're listening
please get rid of the "An update has been posted to your application portal. See Update" from my deferall
It jump scares me everytime I'm lurking
caltech my opp my love for mit only grows bigger
precisely!
who goes to caltech anyway
Likely

shoutout to all my deferred homies
i'm predicting a 100% acceptance rate for those deferred
nah you're raw
Medium rare
thatโs what it was last year right??
Honest without my CAPS I feel like my MIT app is so mid

Save some spots for the rest of us 
u got into columbia too ๐ญ
idk what ur talking abt
deferred MIT trumps it all
Deferred MIT was probably the saddest moment in my life
Probs
But I thought I was competitive applicant lowkey
I guess I am with Columbia likely but
coz harv is almost a guaranteed deferral and mit just has so many more ea applicants since it isnt restrictive
i mean im sure many others have told u this too but
i've seen a lot of mit applicants getting deferred and then accepted during rd
wishing the best for u ๐ ๐
is that rlly true
Thank you
1.8% of deferred apps get accepted
yea this
this was mainly the case for competitive applicants
like for the general pool yeah it's rlly hard to get accepted during rd
But like if youโre a competitive deferred ^^ yeah
yeahh
fair in this case ig
Iโm just a Debbie downer by nature LMAO
youll get into mit this week ๐ค
!mit
MIT RD decisions come out <t:1710455280:F> in your local time
4 days, 1 hour and 12 minutes until the decision date
this isnt because
you are disadvantaged from being deferred
its bc mit just defers a ton of kids who realistically arent getting in ๐
Mit opens up a 30,000 size ohio campus
Accepted mit would literally be the happiest in my life
Which probably isn't healthy lol
2 billion dollars vs guaranteed MIT acceptance. You know you're in too deep when you can't choose an option
you dont need mit when you have 2 billion dollars
at that point you can just bribe the admissions officers of any college through donations to let you in
"only" 10-99 million donation required
Take the 2 bil and then make a 500M donation, then apply lmao
Lmao I was thinking that
Only lmao
bribery >>>>
dream come true
nah im taking the 2billion
wdym by CAPS
common app personal statement
I bet MIT AOs are hard to bribe
They seem to be pretty good with that sort of stuff, they don't even have legacy admissions
no way hi tictac
you can bribe pretty much anyone if you give them enough money to retire on the spot

I like this 2022 one a lot
Yup
Whoever they have for cinematography is crazy
why is mit so quirky and cool
It's making my inevitable rejection so much worse ๐ญ
Meanwhile Caltech used AI to generate one of the images they sent in an email some few weeks ago
And they didn't even do it well ๐
Super obvious
just become an ultra hater and the rejection will feel better <33
Me to UC Irvine fr
How can you hate MIT?
MIT deferred me so hard i realized i didn't like stem anymore ๐ฅฐ
it's cool i think it's a lovely school
So much quirky goodness and top tier academics
u could still get in
Become a Stanford lover
i didnt apply
lmao no
I shouldve
i didn't submit a single STEM-related EC ๐
I've already tortured myself enough this year academically ngl I don't think it'd be much worse ๐ญ
Plus I won't be forced to take an 8 AM class
Same
I need to be challenged
idk i tried challenging myself by adding Calc III as an online DE class and the workload absolutely destroyed me ๐
i'm just ready to relax a little bit
I want to be challenged, not pushed to corner studying for 4 years wanting to escape. ๐ญ
I'm a math major too I can already see it
I took five APs this year and the sixth class is Calc III and Diff Eqs. ๐
If I can survive this I think I can survive MIT classes ๐ญ
My calc 3 class is a study
honestly u can ๐
they accept ppl who they genuinely think can adapt and succeed so yeah
oop ๐
Honestly that might as well be me already ๐
i always devote like several hours of my day to "me time" so i prolly wouldn't enjoy that lol
The HW for my class was light but then people started complaining it wasn't rigorous enough
Now our HW is
๐
those ppl sound psychotic ๐ญ
I devote several hours to reading new AI papers and chatting on technological singularity forums. I don't play games or watch TV really. I don't wanna miss out fr๐
damn
i devote my time to writing about fictional countries so ๐
i'm nerdy but not in the way MIT would like i think lol
Most of my classes are at my local community college bc I finished a lot of my HS's classes and holy they r so much easier
Our Calc III class is actually so goofy
I watch minimum hour of youtube every day ๐
not to diss on community college but its kind of a joke
We designed the class to be lighter and focus more on the concepts so that we'd pass our Calc III classes in college
yeah it is
So we don't have tests
wait u have calc 3 at ur school? thats crazy
I took chem at CC and it was like HS CP level
But that counterintuitively made the class more like a college class, and so it ended up more rigorous
Horrendous
Our "quizzes" take an hour long
some of the DE classes i've taken were easier but i kinda had to fight for my life in physics lmao ๐
I wasn't allowed to take calc 3 so I self studied. I guess I'm really good because I'm able to help someone who got into uppen m&t on their calc 3 hw. Colleges won't see that thoโ ๏ธ
So they're basically just tests anyway 
i have to take it online thru this random university's program, and the reviews are... not great to say the least lol. didnt see them either til i already signed up
I wouldn't quite put mine at CP level but they r def easier than any AP I've taken
my teacher teaches our calc 3 class like a study bc it's all her fav students and everyone is busy af including her ๐
we learn barely any calc 3
My county is selling for not letting me take higher maths
We reintroduced it this year yeah
I am basically relearning calc 1 and 2 to retake the BC exam
in ap physics we just play nyt connections and talk the whole time ๐
https://www.reddit.com/r/learnmath/comments/tqatri/warning_avoid_distance_calculus_at_roger_williams/ this is my course lol, great reviews
the county's a hater damn
mine was easier than honors fs
we used to have it before but the teacher was apparently so bad (He's the current Calc AB teacher and people hate him) that the class basically dissolved because of him
๐ญ
๐
Our current teacher is super cool tho
Honestly the smartest teacher in the school
The chem teacher described him as a cool TV dad
we do puzzles half the time in calc
And that really is just his vibe ๐ญ
i wish we had a calc 3 but im the only one in my district who has ever done multivar, our school district has kids do ab junior year and bc senior
our schools calc teacher is awesome too
but she bouta retire soon sadly
AB is such a scam ngl ๐
AB then BC is insane
๐ญ
Stretching BC-exclusive content over an entire year is
How tf
I was the only student willing to do bc but that wasn't enough so they canceled bc in my school...
๐ญ
ik lol, i got a special exception made for me to take alg 2 along with geo in 8th grade, then they made me do AB as a sophomore bruh
At my school we have like ~30 juniors each year take Calc BC
your BC classes don't go over the AB content too?
so there's enough kids to justify a Calc III class
Nah our BC goes over AB
i was the only junior in bc ๐ซ
I took BC as a sophomore
I barely survived
kids in my school struggle with AB as a senior, i dont think we would have enough people who would be willing to do BC as a junior even if they let us
Literally all the BC students at my school pass while the AB students just flunk out
bro my calc 3 quizzes were 5 proofs and u had an hour and half to do them with group and some people still stayed overtime to finish โ ๏ธ
And that's not because the AB kids are worse
I got a 3 on the exam bc it didn't know what tf I was doing and barely had study skills ๐
That's because the AB teachers are actually horrendous
๐
The BC teachers are actual saints
For me I find AP stats harder than calculus. Maybe my brain is more attuned to calculus, never found it hard
The quality gap is crazy
wow i think i forgot like half of calculus lol
we have about 15-20 seniors take bc, we have 30-50 ab kids a year which are juniors + seniors
actually i agree with this ๐ญ
we have the same teacher for both so its nice
last year I was the only junior in my AP stats class and after the seniors left it was just me and the teacher ๐
and i TA for her this year
stats is harder for me cuz u have to like apply stuff
Thank god our quizzes aren't proofs
calc is jsut like solve this
idk i feel like ap stats was just mostly remembering what to write in the conclusion
"we reject the null bcโ"
bro legit i have to relearn the content twice cuz i just sit in class and stare while she proves things ๐
We once spent like two periods proving the second derivative test and for that we had to go over Taylor series for multivariable functions
It was awful
I am relearning BC to retake the exam and hopefully get a 5 ๐ค
I forgot a lot of calc since 10th grade
apparently none of them can do algebra, my calc teacher gave them an algebra test and only one person got an A lol, and it was my friend. I think this is why she is about to retire lol
it's embarassing
You can retake APs? Who knew
my ap stats class just paved over all the calculus i knew lol
wtf
replaced it with. chi square stuff ig
Well, not proofs all the time
But my teacher loves the proofs
So we spend a lot of time on 'em
bro i hate proofs ๐ญ
my ass could neverrr get them correctly
im only on unit 3 of my class cuz ive been procrasitnating, luckily the material is easy but the software is so annoying lol, lemme send a picture
My teacher always did proofs
Taylor Swift series
bro this was absolutely fire
EWW ๐ญ
I'm learning calc AB and BC stuff and I don't understand that
i saw that its hilarious...
๐ญ
i've gotten so weak i cry at the sight of greek letters
same bro
math skills: gone
except I already forgot all of AP stats lmao
my teacher shows us the proofs cause he likes them... he was a pure math major tho lol
Honestly I think it'd be really cool if there was a more rigorous AP stats class
true
When I talked to my Calc III teacher he mentioned that most college stats is basically just multivariable stuff
๐
I feel like AP stats isn't thaat easy
damn ๐ญ
So that might be a bit much
AP machine learning๐
!mit
MIT RD decisions come out <t:1710455280:F> in your local time
3 days, 18 hours and 32 minutes until the decision date
Bruh
So to introduce a more rigorous AP Stats class you'd need an AP Calc III class
idk compared to BC at my school, stats has been letting me coast
And for a more rigorous AP Physics C class too ig
physics is hard enough ๐ญ
atp just go to college
AP stats is like AP calc AB difficulty
this software is just a pain, like its just really easy vector stuff but this is such a pain to work with, oh and it also doesnt auto save ๐ one time i lost an hours worth of work cuz i forgot to save and put in a derivative that crashed the program
AP TI-84 with extra reading comprehension
I mean BC is just super rigorous
lol
Lowkey feeling an acceptance but im just delusional
name of software?
LiveMath
ngl i'm pretty sure the AB class at my school assigns more work than BC
thanks bro bro
THIS IS THE SHIT THE AB TEACHERS DO AT MY SCHOOL TOO
the professor who runs the course owns the software and he charges you for it too lol
I think my school is the same
oh brother
https://www.livemath.com/
look at this robust website, you can see the quality oozing out
ppl love the AB teacher but from what i hear he assigns a bunch of hw and overexplains/overcomplicates some things
meanwhile the BC teacher doesn't even check for hw completeness ๐
I didnt get daily HW from my BC teacher, usually she gave us big amounts of HW to do over time instead
it has his courses advertised on the website lol
He shows us the proofs to give us a conceptual basis for this stuff but ngl a lot of the time the content just slides over our smooth brains like water
BC teacher is a blessing
Honestly quite helpful though
so like,,, i just recommend BC to everyone but half of them are scared of it ๐ญ
Why proofs
Once you do actually pay attention
I understand calc mostly okish without proofs
My recommendation letters were probably so bad they saw my app and insta rejected it
same here exactly
rec letters are only thing good about my mit app
proofs are kinda fun but i my solving skills are so bad i just get super infuriated by them ๐
Our school designed the class with the idea that we weren't gonna get credit for this in college anyway so the course focuses on providing a strong base in Calc III and Diff Eqs. so we ace our college classes
Some of my MIT essays were written in <1hr and I forgot to put my black belt in awards
makes sense
but why does it have to be so rigorous tho?
3 days
how do you write essays that quickly and not have a heart attack ๐ญ
It doesn't have to be
The teacher just likes the proofs
i finished mine like a month before the due date ๐
copy CAPs and cut most of it
And the students, well, they got tired of the class going slow
man i wish we had this so much, would be so much fun
So they unironically asked the teacher to make it more rigorous
an hour before dute date
L students
Honestly I love the class and the teacher
Super chill and flexible
tell the teacher to slow down
Teaches well too
im only in two classes this year + ta for calc teacher cuz ive taken pretty much all of the good classes at my school already, i just leave and go to work lol
Instead of having a midterm last year we had a pizza party ๐ฅ
lmao imagine time management
(we still had a quiz tho ๐)
only class i didnt get to take that i wanted to was stat, but its 5th hour only
we dont even have midterms ๐ฅ
i remember our BC teacher surprising us with donuts before the ap exam
We brought so much food that ong we couldn't finish everything
There were like four pizzas and an entire pizza got left uneaten
Oh I don't have to take midterms or finals as a senior bc I have an A in the class
dang thats fun
I love that about my school
yeah my school doesnt have midterms or finals at all for anyone
My Calc BC teacher did the same thing last year
It was so good
Bro gave us donuts before our final
I think we had like two or maybe even three pizza parties in his class
damn ๐ญ
(And basically everyone passed the class, so evidently he was doing something right)
My calc teacher used to do Friday night calc practices where she'd buy us all pizza
Legit we walked into the testing room for Calc BC and thought the test was light work
๐
damn
so real
I got destroyed by the test and got a 3
i ta for my calc teacher during the bc class, and none of them know how taylor series work, they had to do a partner test and a bunch of them still almost failed
i remember thinking i got demolished by the MCQs lmao
Now Im redoing it so I can get credit
The only person who thought the test wasn't comically easy for us was the one kid who jumped ship from Calc AB because the teacher was so bad
๐
oh my god i keep hearing so many horror stories out of the current BC class ๐ like they keep getting 0s and 0.5s on their quick checks apparently
He transferred classes in the middle of the year just to escape the teacher
calc bc is such a silly exam
most of them dont know whats going on, also the calc teacher hates taylor series so she doesnt teach it super well. so if you dont know how to learn it on ur own ur cooked lol
I know another kid who jumped ship to online AB just to avoid the AB teacher
you can leave every single bc problem blank and ace the ab portion and still get a 5
Taylor Swift series ๐ฟ
NAH ๐
did any of yall actually understand how to do direct comparison test for series ๐
I forgor everything about series ngl
i went through that whole year without understanding how to do it at all LMAO
my calc teacher told my class about how her AB kids keep trying to do the quotient rule for derivative of x/4 ๐
the absolute worst series test ๐ญ
I have never fully understood series
WILD
(4*x'-x*4')/4^2 goes hard
just too good
i mean it gets you the right answer ๐คท ๐
arkansas education for you
Which one was that again
god i forgot that quotient rule even existed
it does? ๐
like you just. find a series that you already know either converges or diverges
then do some stuff to compare it
Oh I remember now
quotient rule works for any division so you just treat the 4 as the denominator and it works
i never understood how you could just. know if the series converges or diverges lmao
yeah that evil mf thing
Conceptually it's honestly pretty easy tbh
conceptually it's the easiest but i could never get a handle on it 
what is the hardest thing conceptually in BC
i think on the FRQs i also just forgot how to integrate by partial fractions and pulled stuff out of my ass <333
Polar ๐
polar was kinda fun
Please don't remind me of polar
at least once you understood the pizza slice things
I forgot a lot on the test
We're doing polar again in Calc III it is horrendous
I am gonna have to relearn polar
is spherical part of bc idr anymore
I LOVE POLAR
our teacher liked to be esoteric sometimes
Except I never understood it sp it's more like learn for the first time
like she literally made us solve a logistic equation on our whiteboards
took me like 4 of those mini whiteboards and i still got the wrong answer ๐
I have a tip. think of integrating in spherical coordinate a for loop

i'm too socialscienced to understand any of those words
rancid
Trig hurts my soul
polar was not fun :( ... esp bc my whole class forgot the polar arc length formula on our quiz lol
doesnt using cylindrical make this computation worse ๐
actually i might be trolling
math just looks so evil to me nowadays ๐ญ
cartesian bear >>> polar bear
wait yeah this is easiest if you use spherical right
real
jk i love you polar ๐
i love math overall but some parts
me when the limacons or somethign
are just nasty
i love limacons and cardiods <3
yk i never knew that polar function shapes actually had names
all the kids in my schools class are excited for polar cuz my calc teacher has told them its "pretty flowers" lol
nerd pickup line:
And then you have to take the double integral of this
well this is cartesian right
๐
cartesian is just sad
i 1-sinฮธ you
wouldnt spherical be easiest
perhaps
bro the way they wrote this is awful like just write 1/2 ( .....)
Nah this is symbolab
blame them
yeah thats why i said they lol i hate that way of writing it out
same for delta math
has the most idiotic stuff sometimes
wolfram my idol ๐
No way I'm computing this by hand fr fr
calculator time lets go
realll

I looked at the solution explanations on our homework
They don't work it out by hand ๐
yall get hw explainations? ๐
if youre taking calc 3 now do you get to skip it at mit or nah
I can test out of it yes
and we only get those pages, so like wtf was the equation
yeah my teacher posts keys for everything when its assigned
i love him
have you started doing any psets yet ๐ญ
so does the precalc/ab teacher
we just get the textbook telling us the answer without any steps in the back lol
I know some of the MIT class of 2028 are already studying for them yeah they go over the PSets like every week ๐
But there's only like four of them
that kinda led to me getting in the habit of skipping all the problems that were too hard ๐
yeah ik
sheesh
guys my ap microecon teacher assigns p-sets is this a sign that im getting in /j
im lowkey fucked ๐ญ im so behind
The rest of them (including me) I'm not sure are actually even doing anything
lmao why would u do that im sorry im not motivated enough for that
"the derivative of e^x is still e^x ๐ค "
mit student mindset or something
its also only like 3 people tbh
Nah not even that
everyone else is just lurking lmfao
It's the Olympiad kid mindset
yeah theres just some people who are wilding

Some don't

"Using a CAS" stfu
Doing it without CAS is
Perhaps slightly horrifying
skill issue
(This is another question with different specific numbers)
I ain't remembering the antiderivative of sec(x) from the top of my head ๐
does anyone seriously remember the derivatives of trig functions
i need to rederive the derivative of tan every time ๐
i remember them mostly
you be cos(x) and i'll be the one over you and together we'll have sec(x) ๐ณ
tan -> sec^2
Me casually forgetting the fact that the derivative of sin(x) is cos(x)

i have to write that out so that i correctly integrate sin -> -cos
isnt it positive cosine
derivative of cos is -sin
oh wait integrate
๐ญ i saw that stop the bullying LMAO

Hey, did you know you're basic?

Is your love like a taylor polynomial? because its leaving me with a remainder of disappointment
ima be at work when it comes out, idk if i should wait til i get home to open it with my parents or just deal with rejection by myself lmao
I have the day off on pi day so I get to dread the decision all day ๐
Ivy day is during spring break for me so same mood
i normally dont work on thursdays but i have tsa state on a day i normally work so i had to add an extra day
i have to be at a tennis match when decision come out so that sucks to be me
Tbh tho I'd probably just wake up at like 5 Pm and check lmfaooo
i wish i could just be at home
On Ivy day Iโm supposed to be working at a club fair ๐ฅฒ
Tfw I have nine decisions on ivy day
my teacher gave us a song to remember
run off the court just to check. <333
Though that's also on me for applying to all the ivies ๐
I still remember after 2 years

dang i would have been too lazy to write more essays if i got into mit ea
i would have applied ea but i procrastinated
A song to help you memorize the 6 trig derivatives in calculus!
Available on iTunes! https://geo.itunes.apple.com/us/album/trig-derivatives-song-single/1450453795?mt=1&app=itunes
Here are the lyrics:ย
Oh youโve got to know all your trig derivatives
Or your calculus skills (mind)will be primitive
Just sing them every day
And any fears will go a...
this song saved my ass
I still sing it in my head
how the fuck do you make a song out of that

I didn't write more essays
nah
I am the king of recycling essays ๐ฅ
Well, I wrote a few
mostly for brown and darty
But they were fun prompts at least
Brown essay made me wanna die
yeah i recycled my MIT and stanford for most other schools, but i had to write a few from scratch
I hated that second prompt sm
i probably recycled too many essays for rd lmao
i put so much effort into my MIT essays
I wrote about family guy for one of my Brown essays and Tomatoes for one of my Darty essays
๐
i think mit were some of my best though
which?
I just wrote my PIQs and used the same stories over and over again for all my essays lmao
i actually loved my caps so i'm kind of sad mit never got to see it
same
without my CAPS my story is incomplete
my caps was pretty much a giant why major essay, showcased my minecraft journey lol
the growing up one and how that would let you make unique contributions to browns community
same
if i had that i wouldnt have written as many of my other mit essays about minecraft lol
Whatโs CAPS ๐
common app personal statement
that's just a diversity essay, same as every other school
common app essay
sorry lol
bro same
yeah i thought about trying to do an mit essay on the same topic as my common app one but i decided not to
the 150 word essay from MIT was actually torture
I hate that MIT doesn't have a CAPS equivlant
I just wanted to ramble abt worldbuilding and mapmaking but MIT said no ๐
Which one was the 150 word one again
I ended up chopping up my CAPS for one of the longer prompts
what do you do for fun
Mapmaking is actually so cool
and then I chopped up another essay for the 150 word MIT essay
Cartography ๐
like from minecraft???
I would sell my soul for cartography to become a proper major again ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
yeah but I can't fit 650 words in 150 words
those Erwin Raisz maps went so mf hard
just help make satellites or gps or smth that seems like the modern day equivalent
i just wrote about a quirky activity i do for the fun essay, cuz literally what i do for fun is my activities ๐ and they can already see that
i dislike GIS stuff i'm more into the artsy side of mapmaking sadly lol
i wrote about my goofy instrument collection 
so realistically proper cartography wouldn't have interested me even back then ๐ญ
are you into making your own maps and worldbuilding and stuff?
I think I wrote about hiking and ants
that's cool
i made a rushed map of Brown for my video intro too lol
like minecraft maps, worldpainter and what not? or just generally
i posted it in this server somewhere
Ngl I think media studies might be a good major choice for you
nvm I wrote about ants
Just feels like the same vibe
aren't we all
i have a lot of fun doing these silly little things
like in general or at MIT
In general (but MIT Comparative Media Studies is cool)
maybe
but i also find polisci/IR to be fun too so that's what i've been trying to do recently
i completely re-examined my approach to the diversity essay with mit
(mit was the only rd school i applied to w/ a diversity essay)
i literally learned GIMP just to make fictional maps with it <333
๐
world you come from impacting your dreams & aspirations
I completely copy and pasted and then had to cut 25 words to fit the word limit ๐
oh yeah that one
mine was a little silly goofy
Ohio had to be broken up into a confederal system instead of a unitary state ๐
i actually forgot what i wrote for that one
i'm such a quirky guy
id say that compare to an earlier diversity essay i wrote, it was more eye-opening and genuine
My MIT essays are so bad
The Chicagoan Empire is abt to consume them ๐
some of mine range from mid to mid
i paid a guy 300 dollars one time to make a giant world painter map for one of my servers, sadly the project never got finished and it was a waste of money lol (it was all server funds so it didnt come out of my pocket)
i also threw this in
us states are unitary presidential republics
i don't dislike them but i don't like them as much as when i wrote then
YALE EMPIRE???
connecticut - the state where the acela goes slower because the bridges are in disrepair
Should've thrown in the institute /j
University of Alabama also exists

I sent one yesterday and they responded today ๐น
Can the people that respond to ur emails see ur application status
it would be cruel for them to say congrats and accepting my update just for them to reject me in 3 days
i did like last week
i would update them that i won a statewide coding comp saturday but like decisions come in 3 days and i already sent them an update about winning a regional math comp, i doubt it would affect my decision
!mit

of course im winning a bunch of stuff this year when applications are over lol
anyone know if they make some last minute decisions for applicants like the day before, or if a competition win could push me over the edge? i think its a pretty big deal in my state that i won it but i just dont know if its worth updating them, or if it would seem annoying since i already sent them an update. i was also on the news for it but idk if that really even matters lol
i sent them an update last wk and they told me that most likely they wont get to reading it and to trust my previous stuff
which means its over
yeah figured, i doubt it would have made a big difference but at least would show some level of competency at coding, cuz in previous years i was kinda bad and only placed in one of the state competitions

When i sent my update they said thanks for sending them an update and that it will be added to my file
Idek maybe
It could also just be based on ao

No
Dunno if this is for me but I have a bottle of sparkling grape juice that I'd open immediately after yelling and running around for a few minutes
Also a Cadbury cream egg
that is oddly specific
imagine if ur applying to college and put this down in ur portfolio ๐
Tell my mates on the singularity forum that I got in and that I'll aid in the technological singularity. Then tell my parents then my friends
Then make popcorn
I may have thought about this too much
lmao
nah i feel that
i know the first thing im doing if i get rejected
tracking down that teacher that told me in 6th grade that a grammatical mistake SHE MADE that led her to give me a bad grade wouldn't stop me from getting into mit
and then blaming it all on her
i dont know why she said that to a 6th grader actually
i dont even think i really knew what mit was
she was a pretty problematic teacher tbf one time she paid me money to help this other kid in class who was struggling with the content
like isn't that ur job
anyway

my MIT essays were trash
unfortunate rejection
???
i sent one yesterday and they didnt even reply
Bro it comes out in 3 days your decision is already made
Probably they are busy setting up for the decision release
lol i was deferred so i already did the FUN form
it was more of just a last minute nice email talking about what I've been up to and preparations for pi day
no on will ever read it
Also they probably might not read it before then
It takes some time for them to get through emails so probably 3-5 business days after theyโll respond
idk why they responded to mine so quick
admitted
bro gassing me up then Iโll get rejected
haha, let us get High

AGI 2027 bro trust

Iโm so excited for ASI
