Hoping my AO likes beyonce
did you guys use a literal song or did you make your own "song" up
👶 Agaricus bisporus 🤯 cube
Bellingham Mr Aguas likes CharliXCX
@polar moss how do the steps for the decision work
Hope my AO likes lanternflies bc i symphatized w/ them for the 500 word essay
Beyonce
Kind of a combo
you found their instagram broski?
Yer
I hope mr aguas likes beyonce
Not that hard
Bro
nah i was alr on that
Atp u better shoot him a dm to accept u
Well he is girliepop
I bumped my head into my closet door and got a concussion, so i wrote about the dizzy feeling for the song question
neat
what song did you relate that experience to
i hope my essays may replenish my gpa
I did airwave by rank 1
I used dig a little deeper from that Disney movie
app my AO does stuff for singapore which is smth i talked abt bc i lived there
twinkle twinkle little star, I am so basic
nah that's cool
princeton essays were so fun to write
fr
nah thats actually smart af
better than the harvard ones im dealing w now
tyy!
Bro i hate harvard’s
my fav one was the one about what academic subjects u were interested in
I rlly enjoyed writing that one
how did y'alls interviews go?
solid
rlly nice interviewer
my interviewer bought me food 🤩
then you'll have fun w a lot of other schools essays as well
Platform: Wii
Release Year: 2007
Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA_H1TrtQZv5iTXqqh_Auwl459VZ4Gm06
My interviewer looked like mark zuckerberg
my interviewer and my tour guide both observed that we all have the same birthdays???
goofy just like me
maybe it's a sign
It’s meant to be
jk
birthday astrology is the new meta
oh that's sick
but just saying how i never met anyone else w the same birthday
i hope that it's a good sign
my interviewer was a history person which was smth i was starting to get interested in so we had a philopshical talk between the epistomology of history and math/phys
Thats so cool
What’s your birthday
wow
instant acceptance
My interviewer made fun of the British
i don't feel like revealing myself but I'm a gemini
Oh never mind
idek how the convo got there but it did
I’m an Aries
when he was about to mention it i was like "surely he doesn't mean among us...right?"
Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun
lol, maybe he is secretly french
Omg my mom is a Leo
Maybe
funny thing was he was a philosophy major
🦁️
Close enough
started of w/ like what subject do you like in school - i do a proof based math thingy where like you have prove stuff like 0 times a number equals 0 and then build up to calculus. And I also had an interested in history where i wrote my own paper. And then it just spiraled into a comparission between how you reach conclusions between both subjects and the theory of knowledge there.
Philosophy is Sus
damn
we talked about PC building, among us, and soccer
Very deep
this convo is so great i think everyone deserves to get in
some philosphers are just pro slanderers like nietzche and they are hella based
such intellectual topics yall had and i talked about among us
Why yall have some v deep conversations

interviewer was great tho
its the kinda stuff im into 🤷♂️
it prob doesnt mean too much
i like talking abt that kinda stuff yk w/ my humanities friends as a predominantly stem person
yea that's the reason i don't ea mit or rea caltech
I sure didn’t
I’m not capable for that
i still want to be surrounded by a variety of ppl
nah then i just started talking abt places to eat and stuff if im feeling lazy
this is smth princeton does very well to my knowledge
i mean my essays kinda revolved around that whole interdsicplinary theme of bringing multiple disciplines together
translation: broski smart as hell
cap bro
U cant get into isef if u aint smart
i submitted like the only one of 2 assignments to a class late and almost got a B for it
imagine writing a stream of conciousness essay
Tried it and failed bcs i digress too many times
what is that??
did princeton send an email confirming the decision date?
Yea
princeton is more "normal" than the nerd culture of mit and cmu imo
Hi billert
hi smart princeton kids
As high school seniors begin to receive their letters of admission to U.S. colleges, Bloomberg was invited to Amherst College for an inside look at how the admissions committee comes to a decision on who to admit and who to defer.

I finished all my applications in October
pton 
It is pretty nice, but tbh, I had two done before school even started because they opened early (Academy applications), and when I got into Oklahoma (a safety) I took five schools off my list of 15, so that cut it WAY down.
That’s awesome congrats!!
u can enjoy ur winter break 🥹
And Princeton*
I’m enjoying my break fs 💀
i go here dawg
YEAH
Idk about pton 💀
I am not high quality in any way 💀
u deserve that brek bro
Without it 6 more schools to go!! And I’m done with one of those + nearly done with 2 more 😎 so really 3 more
Frrr
It’s only 1 more
You prolly alr have some supplements ready
i submitted 4 ea 4 uc's, stanford, and vandy
Think about out
21 more to go
I’d have to extend one by 100 words for my 500 word one, write a whole new one for why pton, write a service one, and do the short takes 😀
If I have time + my teacher gives me the paper I’ll do it
It’s worth
@polar moss will give us a tour if you get in
Real
lake is awesome
LOL big if 💀
When you get in*
I’ll lyk if I end up doing it
Fr
Bet bet
💀 bro is too optimistic
Nah
We’re not all lucks sadly
Yes, not writing any essays over break will be nice. I admire the people who do like 30 applications, but I don't think I can be one of them.
my favorite channel everytime i do an allnighter
yeah
i need to get 3 rd done before lunch
yoo
almost winter break 😭
Tonight is a restful night
7 hours of sleep here I come
W

Felt
W. Gotta try out that coffee. Luckily there’s a stsrbucks near Princeton too 😁
Same
But doughnuts are cooler
i wanna say yes bc i love both donuts and princeton...
the harvad thread is going crazy rn
Why

why is the mit ea decision date so specific
tau time or smth
Huh
these admissions decisions are released at 12:16 pm, which is known colloquially as “Tau time” (πx2)
be released Saturday, 12/16/23, at 12:16 PM ET.
I know
I was about to say
Unless pi is approximately 6.08

I think for RD its 6:28?
did you also ea mit??
yeah i thought it was a violation
It is
i saw a bro who ignored the r in rea and the binding in ed
and submitted 5 rea and eds in total
and got rejected by all of them
def a great idea to obey the rules lol
Nah but like how do they know
not good...
What?
You don't just apply REA to two schools and EA to mit like that
I didn’t
yo the colleges actually have connections, like they speak with each other. If u attend one of them and they find out they consider it a serious offence
They might even revoke a degree
it isn't a good idea

like ive seen quite a few '27 profiles in stem and needless to say im fucked
nah don’t compare yourself to other people
im just a mediocre international with all the antihooks
i know this african kid who needed full aid that got into princeton rea (harvard, yale, caltech, and columbia too) with very mid stats like actually nothing crazy
1510 sat
no international awards
overrepresented country + good life circumstances + not first gen
dang
caltech and columbia are wild cuz they need aware
but also hate to say this but
hes african
isn’t full pay a good thing?

custom ramen for lunch again💀
someone needs to take this endowment away
Mushrooms are the best!
If Princeton is gpa blind I’m confident
But my school’s gpa is so deflated!
I would not be mildly confident unless my entire family went to Princeton and a DNA test returned literal Princeton blood
blood type P(rinceton)
Danggg

i ask for everything
getting my money’s worth
duh
i bleed orange
Honestly so nervous
Where is this from
A little bit terrified!
late meal
theres mexican, pasta, pizza, the grill, sushi, asian stir fry, and ramen
insane options
I have never seen ramen at late meal wtf
its like every other day bruh
Is it only for lunch
custom pizza maker?
That does sound insane
nah pizza isnt custom
dont be giving princeton anyh ideas LMFAO
i mean.. theres already custom omelettes at breakfast
literally everything
Lake are your classmates filming admissions videos
theres a dessert bar at every meal
not enough 😞 bum school fr
how do ur meal swipes work thn?
coconut rice pudding
Cheesecake 😻
cake, cookies, pie
Ublimited
we had matcha strawberry cheesecake once
my classmates? theyre already here bruh
sounds expensive 😮💨
What about crepe cakes

No I mean welcome videos for 28
Let's give princeton more dessert ideas
mhmmm
Matcha crepe cake of course

2 days 🥹
they literlaly sent a feedback form
democracy✨
as if this wasnt enohg
WHAT
the pasta and grill aer all custom
The hell
and sometimes we have custom mac and cheese at whitman dining hall
or custom burritos
how are the dorms?
or custom chiptoleish bowls
it’s so nice to have many dining halls
whattt that’s crazy
Custom Mac and cheese??
decent overall tbh
the ones without ac kinda suck for the first 2 weeks but after that no ac doesnt matter
for me location matters more cause id hate to walk up campus to get to all my classes
this is not helping the panik
Valid point
Sounds hopeful!!
but i might be coping a bit cause i have a dorm without ac and uppercampus 💀
💀
Do fans help
Ahhh a person at my school is walking towards me with the Princeton crew neck
my roommate took like 5 window box fans that they were giving out and propped them up against all our windows 😭
crew neck astrology
Naurrrrrrrr
And now I’m walking to french where the teacher went to princeton
So many sources of anxiety!!
Biggest question I have about Princeton food
Can you add mushrooms onto custom burgers
deranged
uh i dont think so 💀
theres always musthrooms in like the buffet options tho
!harvard

God I love mushrooms on pizza
Do the grade requests actually hold any meaning or is it all speculation
it means that the college wants to know more abt you - so i'm guessing if your grades have been relatively stable with your grades idt they would ask for a request.
also this is random but if ur cs make sure u write COS
and not cs lol
we have three letter major codes
i think an ao would be happy to see u use the pton lingo
I think I only wrote COS when mentioning some classes
What is cos
is your profile photo scrub daddy

i should walk to the admissions office and ask them how the new rea class is
and if theres any super cool people i should befriend
it's so joever
😃😃😃

Ahhhhhhh
we’re so barrack
i will be a part of the 75% of legacies that get rejected
Billert's legacy status is so powerful that he managed to have his parents steal his decision from the admissions office
its crazy cause
after u factor in legacy and athlete higher chances
the chance for a normal applicant is closer to like 1-2%
Not for me though
My chance is 0%
Removed the ! before the factorial brigade intervenes
i mean honestly
most applicants the chance is prob closer to 0 lol
Please do!!
Nah but fr
I wanna hear the stories abt the cool ppl
like imagine 100 people in a room and they choose 3 of them lol
Admit statistics are useless on an individual level
i had this mentality
Statistics that broad are not applicable to individuals
i was like. i fuckin deserve this and pton would love to have me
My life has recently intersected, in a most personal way, two of Mark Twain’s famous quips. One I shall defer to the end of this essay. The other (sometimes attributed to Disraeli) identifies three species of mendacity, each worse than the one before—lies, damned lies, and statistics.
This is sad to think about
So I don’t think about it!🤩
The admissions office works in mysterious ways
It is highly impractical to come up with some sort of personal admit chance
Especially Princeton I think
It is so unpredictable
Like for most cracked kids you can see them getting into Harvard and mit and no surprise they are rejected by princeton
I saw one person get accepted by Princeton and rejected by Georgia Tech
but princeton seem to find some hiddden gems
exactly my two ea schools
pton doenst have the same criteria
I don’t mind getting rejected by Georgia tech to get into princeton!!!
it cares a lot about both academic competence but also unquantifiable things like morals, civic engagement, and curiosity
Yeah that is what I feel too
nah i can usually predict pretty well
i mean im surrounded by admits so i have a good idea of what they like
So my personal statement is about curiosity, 50% of my supps is about curiosity and another 50% of my supps is about civic engagement loll
its kind of funnt cause being here gives the impression of like "damn everyone gets in here"
cause everyone here did
LMFAO
my personal statement is practically just about personal development
you should be a pretty good one then
I talked in my civic engagement essay about how I try to inspire anyone I can to think critically (obviously I went into more detail and explained why I do that)
fundraising for my $5 coffees thru chancesmes
LOLL
I misspelled isef…
Literally my no 1 honor and I have a typo in it
My ao is gonna laugh at me
its not really that hard the one question i ask is "would i want to sit down for coffee with this kid"
if the answer is yes then they prob have a good chance at schools like pton
Wow
its just whether ur a compelling person
I like that
I love coffee chats…
which can be displayed in many ways whether its ur achievements or just ur mind and worldview
Mhm
So you’re saying that they care more about your essays and personalities and evaluate your future career from the materials you submit?
I think it’s p smart tho. The amount of civic engagement everyone from princeton is involved with is insane!
!princeton
Princeton University SCEA decisions come out <t:1702598400:F> in your local time
2 days, 1 hour and 45 minutes until the decision date
im so scare
no it all matters
I feel like the only things that will be keeping my application from being immediately thrown out are my civic engagement essay, why Princeton essay, and letters of recommendation
u should have the body of work, but this should be work that gives you a unique and constructive view of the world
you should be able to speak about how what youve done in hs informs your understanding of the things you care about and how you want to continue purusing them in college
essays and ecs are like the two prongs of ur story
What makes a good essay
Omg ur $5.50 small world coffee lattes
LOL
I’ve read my essays too many times I can’t objectively evaluate it
Do you like lavender latte
Do they have lavender latte
It is my absolutement favorite
magic
👀
im late but this. the whole process is so subjective it's just useless to dwell over the numbers while we wait imo
yes love
Like a cozy blanket, the smell of grass in the heated summer and Sunday’s warm sunshine🤩

And the syrup is light violet
so comforting
too sweet
If I can lie down on my bed on a sunny day w bubble tea and watch yt
war in mouth between syrup and espresso
so braindead from doing the econ final from last year
its like
line go up line go down
nah you gotta do one w light syrup
😔 I wanted to start a fundraiser for lake’s coffee budget
But now you’ve let me down
Econ is so fun
coffee astrology
ew. econ
this was the 2022 final exam bro
Yoooooo
I prefer notability
Do you think they also value things like creativity
Wasn't Paul Krugman an econ professor at Princeton a while back

Because the B theory of time is correct (I won't be taking questions at this time) your chances of being accepted are 0% or 100%
I won't explain
so real
Omg
someone take their money away this is ridiculous
i will
I'd be happy to rob princeton
I’m gonna cry
If it shows you that Wikipedia isn't always the greatest source the first two citations on the Wikipedia article for the B theory of time are from William Lane Craig and Brian Greene respectively
im coming to princeton this wknd if i get in
to get a small world coffee
as a celebratory
from a mathematical perspective that isn't true bc like if the overall acceptance rate is 6% then that means that 2/3 to 5/6 of the admitted class is legacy or athletes which isn't true I hope 💀
Lol
i'd actually eat a hose if this were the case
Princeton University SCEA decisions come out <t:1702598400:F> in your local time
2 days, 57 minutes and 24 seconds until the decision date
but all the other stuff abt the app being a 2 pronged EC / Essays thing is 100% true 😤
Dang
need
the baristas there are always so chill
nah overall is like 3%
maybe 4
Do you go to school in Princeton?
no i live kinda close tho
i'll look at stats - but the majority that comes from legacy obv has a selection bias just to have parents and stuff that care abt the same stuff pton does
Considering rd applicants who don’t mind another 60 dollars to apply that number doesn’t reflect the rea pool tho
like 13% of class is fixed with legacies
legacies arent necessarily competing with nonlegacies
they dont release stats anymore
I wonder whether there is an actual advantage to applying REA if you're not hooked
but its around 3-4
oh ya i forgot
I heard that it’s bc it’s not as competitive as Harvard and Yale anymore
thats not how it works lol
if 13% is legacy and like 7% is athletes then for nomal applicants the rate goes down from 6% to like 5% (not super significant)
who is telling you its 6% lol
No but like after Covid the acceptance rate rose like crazy
2/60=0.03
my AO said not a HUGE advantage but it shows princeton is your top choice so you get a slightly better look
20% is athletes
Grown to around 6% one year
fifth of every class
damn
And Princeton think that it’s too high to be released
no cap
no, rea is harder

Omggg
a pton ao once said if youre not a legacy or athlete you basically get deferred lol, except for really exceptional applicants
not saying it's easier but just relative to RD you get a SLIGHTLY better look according to her
way harder pool
Excited to be watching this thread for rea!!
Its better than Stanford who basically rejects everyone rea lol
ik ppl from my school who weren't cracked but got in pton rea
no pton rejects a lot rea too
just marginally more defer than stanford
exceptional doesnt mean cracked
Oh rly💀
ya some of them showed me - they were p good but not mindblowing
would you say that a defer from princeton is indicative to them being interested in you?
eh it means at least you weren't auto reject
cuz stanford has this policy of making any final decisions as soon as possible
thats nice to hear
Hey waterflame
someone, defer to accept is common
seems like you couldn't stay out of here
No I’m so delusional!!!
so true
gotcha
After finishing my tests before Christmas I can’t help thinking about Princeton
This could be detrimental to your physical health
I would suggest visiting a doctor if you are indeed dying
Optional though

do you think 13% is also the admit rate for legacies or is it higher
thank goodness for mods here after what happened yesterday lmao
that’s not how math works
you might wanna brush up on khan academy if you get in bro
its been like 2 years since i did sstats
stats work the way i want them too ok. if i apply to 5 6% schools, my chances of getting in 1 = 30% !!!! AP stats 5 here
We got you dw
I have now realized how my conclusion is incorrect 
LMFAO
getting corrected by a politics major
I don't have any more exams for the rest of the semester so I turned my brain off
But theyre also more cracked than the normal app pool no?
if ur a legacy with something standout it’s practically guaranteed
I would simply apply to UChicago or MIT in this case
Yes! When Ruby got drawn as tribute for this thread, everyone cheered bc they didn’t wanna be chosen!

but if anyone reading this gets what i mean and has an answer do say.

I would say ~1530
As in those who apply, not those who get in?
That's actually insane lmao
I was hoping my 1550 might help me 💀
Those who got in
Good luck btw!!!
ty!! You too
i would say above 0 at least
not 100% sure
Above 400 even!
oh yea fs

acc u should send in your reaction
What abt a 1230?
above 1230 for sure
im p sure SAT scores if they are above a certain threshold immediately are just basically not considered for most ppl minus special cases
i would still be surprised if i got in

r u expecting a defer->accept RD?
dont princeton defer a lot REA
no if i get deferred im treating it as a rejection
deferred with legacy tho can help in rd cuz a lot less legacy?
that doesnt make sense

if i get deferred im sayin fuck it uchicago time
still will allow myself for RD consideration but it wont be the focus
Hi
Um
imma throw myself outta fucking window i swear
can you do remedials

In the place where i come from people who get lower than the supposedly bare minimum score (usually 70) has to do a remedial
Basically retaking the test
If you pass the remedial you get the bare minimum score on your report card
Dangg
like for my physics test 70% you get an A
Ok then you’re still fine
Atp i dont even bother putting princeton rea on my name bcs im gonna be rejected anyways
Lmao
yea same
So ready to get this over with
what was it on?
Two more nights
a bit of everything that is pure
hol up lemme check for you
ya i do pure math so like j like vector/metric/topo spaces maybe??
de moivres theorem, hyperbolics, and calculus
or like a little bit of pure math but still enuf
de moivre's is p nice
gimme a sec its coming through
all good

On our math test there was a really nice problem where you had to prove that there exists a unique q(x) for all p(x) such that p(1/2) = integral from 0 to 1 of p(x)*q(x). p(x) and q(x) are of degree at most n.
wtf
😭 i alr forgot most of hs maths
im a phys math guy so this stuff interests me 💀
you use smth called the riesz representation thereom which says there is a 1-1 corespondence between things called functionals that takes in a vectors amount p(x) and turns it into a number p(1/2) and something called an inner product which is a generalized dot product which the integral fits the description of.
Its a linear algebra thing
i mean its not the easiest thing imma be real
i feel like you dont get a good understanding just running thru the algorithms
@tough eagle i couldn't imagine working on lined paper tho 💀
whats wrong with lined paper
yea
like im not writing my integrals and stuff on one line
i just sorta ignore it lol.

how hard is it to write your way into a princeton rea acceptance?
Cant tell
dont feel bad
Hi pton potentials how are we feeling
the calc 1 average for the first exam was 48
not particularly princeton potentially
im in calc3 but like idk wtf calc 1 is doing lmfaooooo
Wdym
Calc 1 probably is crying bc Calc is hard
id be glad to be deferred but in reality id rather be rejected
i have a math final tmrw so im j gonna try to distract myself from princeton by studying
Get what you mean
if i get in i get in otherwise i wrote like 15 colleges worth of supps as backup over the summer so im not too worried
I need to start my hw but like I don’t want to
Hey W
just procrastinate :)
Me rn 😎
if i get into pton ill probably redo calc3, linalg, and diffeq
yeah im applying to ~4 more if i get in but im facing reality
if i get into pton ill redo linalg but not calc 3
is your rea princeton?
im applying max 3 more schools
It is not
conditional on if i get in early
app the rea accept rate at my school is like 25% ish and i know these kids aren't athletes (its a tech school) or legacy 💀
whats it on
my final is wednesday 7:30-10:30pm then my semester is done
the fact that the a2c mod team has 4 rea stanfords, 2 of which are legacies, is mindblowing
good luck man
I’m going to apply to at least 8 more if I get rejected 😭 I’ve alr done 15 rd/ea schools
who schedules math final for 10:30pm
calc 3
wait who r the legacies
Ewww
bri and brandon
no need to redo calc 3
just gonna apply to all the hysm if i got in to princeton
B & B
im in the one for econ applications which is marginally better
bruh it ends at 10:30pm 💀
u got this 🥺
bb
Why 😭
Ty!! You too!!
IM SCARED
why havent i gotten an email 🤠
Baby + bed and breakfast
if i get into pton im gonna do mat 216-218 bc our math class is basically just that 🥱
Girl no one has 😭
im lowkey thinking of going back to calc 1 in college so i can save my gpa..
thats actually crazy
yeah these r good ive heard!
Also bri you have gt anyways 💪
to compare the fa packages and why not? there's just one chance to apply to colleges
our math teacher used one of the sample questions on our test 😭 (smth abt proving norm(x,y) = |x|+|y| can't be an inner product space
People said they called and it’s before the 20th
trutru but georgia is not my place fr 💪🏼
Fair

Why my friend at gt is legit having the time of his life
all the math major kids start with 216
He looooooves gt
but some with like 300+ or grad courses
ngl the princeton thread seems rlly tame compared to stanny or harvard
that's sick
BC IVE BEEN HERE TOO LONG
cause stanf and harv kids r insane
and mit
Stanny is great wdym
I NEED SMTH NEW
naur princeton is insane as well
people are generally more humble
not in a good way i meant!!
just want to explore
pton too humbling kids
