[unreal citrus]

Stupid question guys but for the graded paper my essay was graded using a rubric, what should I put first in the doc the essay or the grade/rubric?

[west light]

And dhirubhai ambani

[stoic girder]

because of need blind or whats the scene for applying?

[west light]

Ok yeah that's fair

[west light]

I put rubric on top

[stoic girder]

did u apply w or wo fin aid?

[lilac forge]

when does this come out

[west light]

wo

im 100% sure they discriminate

[west light]

5:30 hrs

[old turtle]

pretty sure the person can read it in whatever order they wish regardless of the order you put it in

[frigid lily]

it's probably more of a correlation
more wealth = more opportunities = better ecs/scores

[old turtle]

Princeton SCEA Decision Date

The decision date is <t:1734048000:F> in your local time
5 hours, 25 minutes and 19 seconds until the decision date

[stoic girder]

yeah

[old turtle]

financial aid office and admissions don't talk

[west light]

I know

[frigid lily]

yeah ^ it's not direct

[stoic girder]

what did yall say

[frigid lily]

idk if you can call it "discrimination"

[warm panther]

@unreal citrus ehat couyntry ar eyou applying out of?

[west light]

I don't believe it's actually need blind that's all

[frigid lily]

someone with more wealth would usually be a better fit because they can demonstrate their passion better i feel like

[stoic girder]

look at this

[west light]

Maybe they're generous with aid but I don't think I'd qualify for it anyway

[stoic girder]

they still get ur Financial Aid details

[stoic girder]

fair

thats why they got qb

[west light]

100%

[warm panther]

where r u applying out of

GUYS

I NEED TI KNOW I CAN T BE THE ONLY

ONE

FROM M

MIDDLE EAST

[frigid lily]

it mostly holds true for internationals, for domestics it's an even playing field more or less

[unreal citrus]

Somewhere in west africa

[warm panther]

actually if i am thats better

[stoic girder]

dubai?

[warm panther]

no

[stoic girder]

which country

[warm panther]

[stoic girder]

makes sense

[west light]

For sure

[warm panther]

oil

[stoic girder]

bro

1 out of 216 countries

[west light]

All the ivy admits from my school were dirty rich

[stoic girder]

[west light]

[frigid lily]

[stoic girder]

[warm panther]

north afrca

[stoic girder]

crazy

[warm panther]

nice

[west light]

Lol

[stoic girder]

NW is nuts

I would love to go there

[frigid lily]

yeah the viral doshi guy charges something like that

[west light]

dm once don't wanna doxx myself here

[warm panther]

i hope people who do this fail miserabily in their lives and in the thereafter

[old turtle]

what's NW in this context?

[warm panther]

i understand getting someone to help

[frigid lily]

northwestern ig

[warm panther]

like to GUIDE

[west light]

Fr

[warm panther]

especially if youre going through this alone

but TO WRITE YOUR ESSAYS

[stoic girder]

why

[warm panther]

youre a cheater

[frigid lily]

but idk if the ROI is really worth it

[warm panther]

cheater

[stoic girder]

not write, just heavily edit i mean

if that makes sense

[warm panther]

if i write dogshit and they heavily edit it to good work thats still cheating

dont butter it up

[stoic girder]

idk she was sweet 😭

[frigid lily]

bro we all know 70% of international ivy admits are grifters with fake profiles and essays

[stoic girder]

i knew her

[frigid lily]

😭

[stoic girder]

obv

[warm panther]

you have no idea how true this is coming from someone liek me who lives in an oil country

where everybody fakes everything

ecs

essays

schools inflate grades

[old turtle]

I think they said "a girl paid someone 25k and got into NW". Not that they did it

[warm panther]

im not from said country im an immigrant

[frigid lily]

yeah it's not fair at all

[warm panther]

i know

im not targeting texter

im targeting that girl

[stoic girder]

idk

[old turtle]

it's not the only service out there, and there's a LOT of them

[stoic girder]

seems ur hella labelling based on her parents paying for it

[west light]

Fr

[warm panther]

bro i frankly dont give a shit about the money

it could be two cents

at least be authentic in your product

[frigid lily]

lets be real no one in countries like india would be paying for "essay editing services", they straight up write your essays and ecs from scratch 💀

[old turtle]

would you judge people who use chatGPT on their essays?

[west light]

manufactured profiles and essays is the worst

[warm panther]

its equitable

free resource

everyone has access

[frigid lily]

not at all, not that it'd work for most people

[warm panther]

and it also cant write good essays for you

[west light]

Essay reviewers are different

[old turtle]

I don't disagree, but things are rarely truly equitable in the theoretical sense of the word

[stoic girder]

idk arguing the ethics of admission counsellors kinda stupid, this is too heavily talked abt

[west light]

There are companies here that manufacture your ecs and profile and essays

From scratch

[stoic girder]

Essay reviewers suck ass i cant lie

[frigid lily]

college admissions have been super unfair for a very long time with richer people receiving external help, colleges are grinding their gears now that everyone has access to a resource

[west light]

Fr wasted money

[stoic girder]

I saw my friends essay, the dude gave such shit advice'

and it wasnt like the essay was great

[warm panther]

and spending 25000 dollars is a waste of money dude

thats someones take home pay after taxes

[old turtle]

there's a lot of shit personal essay advice out there because to give good advice, you have to actually know the person's experience

[stoic girder]

MIT asked: How are you different from your peers

My friend said because I self study while my classmates have tutors

and the reviewer approved it LMAO

[west light]

Nahh

[old turtle]

I'm different because I'm a motherfucking rock star

[frigid lily]

yeah so what the counselors do is weave fake personas with their whole profiles having some sort of a theme, getting the kids on fake extracurriculars and stuff

[old turtle]

and then they get interviewed

[west light]

average Athena experience

[stoic girder]

Okay gonna give a new pov

[frigid lily]

he knows

[stoic girder]

on god

[west light]

friends are there

[warm panther]

dude let me also put it this way

[frigid lily]

most of my school is there 💀

[stoic girder]

LMAO

[west light]

Holy

[warm panther]

im driven by religion like i practice and i try my best

as a muslim

in islam its like a sin to waste that much money

theres a title for them in arabic

[west light]

bro okay

I really hate that I went this route

But my parents actually consulted with one of these companies 2 years ago

youd probably know which one, it's pretty famous after athena

[frigid lily]

i'm honestly proud i've never received any external help for school/college stuff which is quite rare ngl

[warm panther]

the term used for people who spend money recklessly or wastefully is "Israf" (إسراف).

[stoic girder]

Okay. Say you are balls deep rich, like throw away money rich. Im talking a big ass mansion.

Are you gonna tell me, you wont pay 25000$ for your kids admission into an Ivy?

[frigid lily]

i'm probably the only one applying to the states with aid and no external counselor

[warm panther]

its unethical, immoral, a sin, undeserving

[west light]

The entire time they kept sending me internships and opportunities which costed ranging from $1000-10000

[warm panther]

bro if im balls deep rich

fuck yes im buying that brabus

[west light]

I never did them

[warm panther]

fuck yes im buying all the real estate in nyc

but im raising a man/woman

not a boy or girl

[frigid lily]

unpaid internships are one thing, but paying to get internships is insane

[warm panther]

they need to lock the fuck in

if you cant get there on your own then youre not worthy

[west light]

I know right

also

[frigid lily]

y'all are full pays im assuming?

[west light]

everyone just has some connection with some big company and gets an internship there lowk not fair

[warm panther]

btw im not making an argument for religion, like im basing my thinking based on my moral guidelines and im open to hearing from diff perspectives

this is from the quran

Surely the wasteful are ˹like˺ brothers to the devils. And the Devil is ever ungrateful to his Lord.

[stoic girder]

thats nuts

[warm panther]

nope

EFC is like 40-50k

[stoic girder]

I had 0 replys from my cold emaills to IITD people

[old turtle]

one of the rudest kids to me in college was some kid from Turkey who had what it seemed to be a personal bodyguard. One of the biggest assholes around. After one interaction, I ignored him. I'm pretty sure a lot of people there felt the same way. It's their loss to be like that and separate themselves from the community

[west light]

Check dms

[west light]

Bro that guy had the audacity to say he cold emailed lol

[warm panther]

💯

[frigid lily]

i feel like that defeats the purpose of college abroad

if you don't even socialize

😭

[frigid lily]

damn im rawdogging us admissions w a 15k EFC 🙏

[old turtle]

just saying, there's cliques within cliques, and it's a sea of sharks

[warm panther]

hope you get blessed during admissions season and that your efforts are rewarded and that your parents are proud

[stoic girder]

LMAo

[old turtle]

what's EFC?

[warm panther]

estimated family contribution

[frigid lily]

financial contribution per year

[warm panther]

how much you can pay for college

[old turtle]

estimated financial co-oh

[frigid lily]

got semifinalist for a full ride at a safety already so we're off to a decent start

[warm panther]

what school?

[old turtle]

on the other hand, one of my roommates was an african ambassador's son who interned with bill clinton. Nicest guy

[frigid lily]

rollins college, rahul gandhi's alma mater

[warm panther]

i got into tamu but it costs 60k so i need to pull 20k out of my ass

[warm panther]

are you still in contact?

[stoic girder]

Guys

guys

I knew a guy

who got

an LOR

from

DA LAI LAMA

[frigid lily]

lmfao

[old turtle]

my sister's met him

picture of her with him is on her fridge

[stoic girder]

but a 34 predicted, so the shit got wasted

[frigid lily]

i mean almost every international's got an LOR from a famous personality atp, but they're not personalized im p sure

[old turtle]

along with nancy pelosi and a bunch of other famous people

[warm panther]

all 9k intl applicants to princeton have one?

chill out bro

[stoic girder]

i got 1 famous one tbf

but i met her at a biz conf

[frigid lily]

no, i mean the competitive wealthier ones

[warm panther]

also those LORs mean jackshit if it doesnt show a new perspective

i dont have a "Famous" one i have an "important" one i met when she worked with me on an initiative

[stoic girder]

eh idk, college counsellors write lors

[warm panther]

wdym?

like the people you pay

write them

and then they sign off/

[frigid lily]

yes

[stoic girder]

for ur famous ppl

yes

[warm panther]

well

[stoic girder]

its v fin based

gg

[warm panther]

important > famous

a letter from obama better than one from kanye

[stoic girder]

p sure obama is more famous

than kanye

[frigid lily]

that is not a good example

💀

[old turtle]

why would you ask for an impersonal LOR from someone famous? That person can't speak to your skills/abilities

[warm panther]

yes i agree now

[warm panther]

cause they said above c

college counselors

[frigid lily]

that's why college counselors write them

[warm panther]

who create ur identity

write it for them

[frigid lily]

they create your persona

[warm panther]

its D1 bullshit bro i hope all thse people get cooked in uni and after

unfortantuely our world is not a meritocracy

so it is what it is

[old turtle]

that's like saying, "this guy slaps. Signed G-O-D"

[stoic girder]

dats nuts

that shit does not happen in my school

at all

[warm panther]

ngl bro

[frigid lily]

it's unusual for IB

[warm panther]

i feel like this is just india

and china

[stoic girder]

^^^

this

[old turtle]

maybe where you're from, but I don't think that's typical in the states

[stoic girder]

my school doesnt fucking inflate also

its so cooked

[frigid lily]

yeah im talking india

[old turtle]

LOR culture varies

[warm panther]

like yes the middle east has a fair bit of corruption but the pitfall of every applicant here is that SAT or AP score

[frigid lily]

ur in pathways or sum?

[stoic girder]

na

[warm panther]

cause thats the one thing you cant buy your way out of

[old turtle]

European LORs are very different from american LORs

[warm panther]

and no tutors dont count cause uhave to be dsicplined

[stoic girder]

pathways had like 10 grade point inflation

[stoic girder]

bro

academics are the best standard

[warm panther]

no

[stoic girder]

at the end of the day

fairest way

[frigid lily]

we have like a 10% inflation but it's fair because school exams are tough

[warm panther]

schools in my country give grades for attendance

[old turtle]

Eurpoean LOR - "this person is acceptable" = This person is a god.
American LOR - "this person is acceptable" = This person is acceptable

[stoic girder]

thats so cooked

[west light]

I asked the guy who got me into cs and all to write one for me lmao

[warm panther]

and no offense

im gonna say it first

[stoic girder]

I have one european one, im praying it works

[warm panther]

IB is D1 DOGSHIT

worst thing ever

[stoic girder]

but idk what bros gonna write at ALL

[warm panther]

IB sucks ASS

[old turtle]

that's why AOs are regional

[warm panther]

you can just cap on ur predicted score

get it

and lock in semester 2 with tutors

[frigid lily]

IB imo is a nice curriculum, the sciences are way easier than cbse and i love the focus on humanities

[warm panther]

and IB gives no college credit

[west light]

Well I pray they know what's up and what's not

[warm panther]

like get outta here fr

[west light]

Because looking at the admits from my school

They turn their head the other way

[stoic girder]

how can you cap on ur pred score??

school inflate

?

[warm panther]

for my school a teacher liek

self reports the predicted

[west light]

Same

[warm panther]

so they can just give a 7 to whoever

i do ap here so im chilling

[stoic girder]

that is Not how IB is done in 99% of the places

[frigid lily]

man i wish i had APs they're balls easy

[warm panther]

i promise you it is

[west light]

I worked so hard to get 98% predicted meanwhile my friends who were failing begged the teachers and got the same as me

[warm panther]

i 100% promise you it is

[stoic girder]

not in india

idk middle east

[frigid lily]

cbse?

[west light]

Yes sir

[stoic girder]

[west light]

Knowing his height is enough LMFAO

[west light]

My teacher didn't give any comments I had to submit without

[frigid lily]

i was just asking if he gets mogged in finland where average height is 6 feet

[stoic girder]

[west light]

Nah

[old turtle]

I'm 6 feet, does that make me finnish?

[frigid lily]

[west light]

If I remember correctly

It wasn't mandatory

Just encouraged

[stoic girder]

ah okay

[frigid lily]

damn

ib is just so convenient man

[stoic girder]

I had a really good response in an exam, but my handwriting ruined it ngl

[west light]

Tbh that paper was badly written I didn't have anything else to give

[frigid lily]

like cambridge doesn't even recognize cbse as a curriculum

[stoic girder]

idk bro

[west light]

Yeah lmfao

[west light]

Oh

Oxford got rejected pre interview

MAT went well though so idk

[stoic girder]

na like it is convinient but its hella stressful on a day to day basis

and u have to be a very good writer

[frigid lily]

it prepares you well for college is what i meant

[stoic girder]

oh mb

[frigid lily]

cbse is super focused on sciences

and no humanities

[stoic girder]

true

[frigid lily]

u can write hindi in an english paper and get 80%+

[west light]

Lmfao

[stoic girder]

the issue is

there are not enough qualified people to moderate

on a central level

[frigid lily]

defo

agree

[stoic girder]

while math/science is just a simple markscheme

[frigid lily]

how much does ur school cost

@stoic girder

[stoic girder]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[old turtle]

Just feed into chatgpt

[stoic girder]

[white marten]

Guys I’m ok now because I’m getting into Yale

[old turtle]

my roommate was from Bangladesh. He told me he deleted all his application materials. I get why now....

y'all are cray cray

[white marten]

Yep

I expect to return to normal

In about 5 hours

[old turtle]

if it helps, I can mute you beforehand

[fierce pendant]

good thing for pton late meals

u can get sushi for free

[old turtle]

is the rice still dry af?

[fierce pendant]

wait it's actually rlly good

er rlly good for the price

[hallow jay]

thanks for the name u got this

[white marten]

Qhasti is itching to mute me

[old turtle]

in retrospect, I think I remember dry sushi rice because we might have stored it in the fridge overnight and then ate it in the middle of an all nighter

[white marten]

I made my promise that I’d be normal after decisions come out so I’m getting all the freaky out beforehand

[hallow jay]

rural que sera sera

[white marten]

Yes

Que será será

What will be will be

[fierce pendant]

BAHHAHA yeah 😭

food is def not a problem here tho

[west light]

Wait what

Context?

[white marten]

Manifesting

[west light]

Oh okay

[white marten]

I submitted Yale app today and I think it was spectacular

[west light]

Did princeton click on any links in your application

[west light]

Bro

I should start grinding my rds

[white marten]

I didn’t really know what I was doing for Princeton

[west light]

Same

[white marten]

Because I had never written apps before

[west light]

Same

That was my first

Im going to grind either Harvey Mudd or stanford tonight

[white marten]

So honestly all of my RD apps are better than my Pton one

But I think that can be said for most of us

[west light]

?

[white marten]

I didn’t put any links

[hallow jay]

how to tell?

[white marten]

I have nothing to link

[west light]

uhhhh

im slightly crazy

[hallow jay]

oh u mean like website i didnt do allar

allat

[old turtle]

you checked the IPs for your hits from NJ?

[white marten]

I don’t have a website 💀

[west light]

No

I automated all that

Linked it to a discord webhook

[white marten]

It would be narcissistic of me to have a website

[west light]

I got a click from university of British Columbia

No other unis

[west light]

Admitted btw

[white marten]

Because it would just be me

[old turtle]

ah, yes. so much better than the other thing

[west light]

No it wasn't a website for myself

[white marten]

I have been contacted by the university four times since submitting

[west light]

Some thing I built

[white marten]

Oh I see

[west light]

Woah

[white marten]

I don’t do that

[west light]

What

[white marten]

Let me elaborate

1. Portal link
2. Arts supp confirmation
3. Finaid confirmation
4. Release date

[west light]

Ohhh

[old turtle]

way to scare the shit outta people

[west light]

I heard from someone on the server that AOs are told not to click any links

[white marten]

That honestly makes sense

[west light]

Maybe cus of people like me lmfao

[white marten]

Princeton locks down on portal astrology HARD

[old turtle]

I don't think they're even able to click on links

[white marten]

which is why I think Q 1 means nothing

[old turtle]

can you imagine the potential for for hacking if they could?

[west light]

270 mins more to go

Which movie should I watch

[west light]

Yup

[devout furnace]

why does princeton have so many supplements bruh

i should get started on them

[white marten]

Look at Caltech

[west light]

Ong

[white marten]

Caltech had 10 I filled out

[west light]

10 essags

Ffs

[white marten]

Not all of them are required

6 are required

But I obviously had to fill out the coursework limitations one

[west light]

if you want to show ur serious about the school

You wouldn't leave the optional empty

imo

[white marten]

I focused on stem in the main six and explored my other interests in the optional 3

[west light]

That's cool

My friend got into Caltech last year insanely cracked

[white marten]

I will be rejected with prejudice from Caltech because of my 750 math SAT

but im still applying

Because they sent me a friendly email about wanting rural kids

[west light]

Chill

Sat is becoming mandatory after a long time

[white marten]

This was a joke not dooming btw

[west light]

The median will drop

[white marten]

I know 750 is still an insanely cracked math score

[west light]

Sat is the type of test

Where the more you give it the better you get

[white marten]

Im excited for the median to drop, test optional was bad for us

Test optional made everyone freak out

[west light]

They should take the number of tests you've done into account

Unless they do already

[white marten]

When the average sat at top schools is really like 1520

[west light]

Yeah

[white marten]

It’s on the common app, you list how many sittings you’ve had

At least for Yale

Let me check Princeton

[west light]

It's how many sittings you want to report iirc

[white marten]

Because sometimes they exclude that info from common app

[old turtle]

superscore ftw

[white marten]

They should require how many sittings

Although I don’t think the amt of sittings you take reflects poorly on you ever.

[stoic girder]

I would be cooked

2 sittings

[white marten]

I took

One

[elfin sedge]

Good luck everyone!!

I hope we’ll all meet up at Princeton

[white marten]

You wouldn’t get one anyway if your counselor sent in Q1 grades like mine did

[elfin sedge]

But even if not there’s so many great schools

[stoic girder]

top 10 reasons I hate college board

[white marten]

[devout furnace]

[white marten]

[stoic girder]

fr

[devout furnace]

fuck the sat

act is amaszing

[stoic girder]

but sat math

is so easy

I love it

😭

[devout furnace]

act math is so satisfying though

i got a clean sweep on all the act sections tho

[stoic girder]

36?

[white marten]

Sat math was hard because lots of the questions are asked in ways I’ve never been asked before because rural education

[stoic girder]

idk

I used this tool called prep pros

70$ for like 150 questions

split it with 7 friends

ez

[white marten]

I just took 3 bluebook tests

[stoic girder]

some questions were basically

matching

bro

[white marten]

1480, 1550, 1450

[stoic girder]

it was crazy

[stoic girder]

damnn

bro

in blue books

I was getting 1590 1570 types

I just choked

in the exam

[white marten]

Yeah

I overperformed expectations

[stoic girder]

🙏

[white marten]

614 points higher than school average coded

[stoic girder]

🔥

my school avg was

1420

bruh

[old turtle]

All I care is with 90 more messages we beat Cornell for number of messages in the megathreads and get within spitting distance of all the UCs

[elfin sedge]

My classmate went to RSI

[stoic girder]

RAI>

oh

guareented admission

[median zealot]

lmao

[stoic girder]

wherever bro is going to

[elfin sedge]

Yeah

But he applied to Harvard

[stoic girder]

ew

i mean

he still got it

in the bag

no uni in their right mind would reject an rsi admit

[old turtle]

I admit, this is all pretty amusing to read

[stoic girder]

bro

im going to my friends house to play fifa

at 1am

im finished

[west light]

Some kid one shotted 1590 here

[near citrus]

My school average is way below that

[trim latch]

One shotted a 1580 (my mom asked if I wanted to retake w the DSAT, and I was like, “NO”

[stoic girder]

nuts

[west light]

Lmfao fr

[stoic girder]

what my friend texted me

[median zealot]

i don't remember people here being this anxious last year

[white marten]

Below 1520? I sure hope so

[median zealot]

or maybe i was one of them and didn't realize

[stoic girder]

prolly this

[west light]

If I get rejected by princeton I'll ask her out

Two rejections make an acceptance right

[median zealot]

lmao

[white marten]

I think we’ve just manufactured an insane amount of anxiety and it’s just gonna be the same 1-2-1 ratio

[near citrus]

Yes sadly

[median zealot]

but I think people are genuinely tweaking over the q1 grades this time around

not many ppl mentioned it last yr

[stoic girder]

what is 1-2-1 ratio?/

[white marten]

Because it’s not a big deal

[west light]

Admitted rejected deferred

I think

[stoic girder]

my school does annual, im so thankful I aint stressing

[white marten]

Yes

[stoic girder]

yk

25% acceptance

ill take it

[white marten]

Just in this server

[stoic girder]

yes'

[median zealot]

was it a 1:2:1 last year in this server

[old turtle]

pandemic defect ongoing

[stoic girder]

u shud know

i think

if u were this anxious

[median zealot]

oh yeah it was

but honestly that's voluntary response bias

[white marten]

Fair

[west light]

it's gonna be a 1:0 ratio this time

All accepted

[stoic girder]

princeton reading all the chats

[white marten]

100:1 with one rejected

[stoic girder]

trust

[west light]

What if I'm actually a princeton ao

[white marten]

What if I’m an AO

[old turtle]

[west light]

Won't be surprised

[old turtle]

https://tenor.com/view/obviously-snape-harry-potter-gif-5508473

[mortal ermine]

what do AOs even do between rea decisions and rd applications

[devout furnace]

maybe AOs are just hella efficient

[old turtle]

probably read more applications

[mortal ermine]

read deferred applications??

[devout furnace]

and qhasti is one

[west light]

Nothing they disappear from earth

They get summoned back to read rd applications

[stoic girder]

chill for a week, and start again

[mortal ermine]

real

[stoic girder]

man it must be scary being an AO

[west light]

Oh shit yeah rd is due in 2 weeks

I need to lock in

[stoic girder]

1000's childrens hands in ur life

[west light]

Are AOs paid well

[old turtle]

being an AO is a lot of work for shit pay

[west light]

Oh

[stoic girder]

fair

most AOs arent even from the school

[west light]

Wait what

[stoic girder]

I met a MIT ao from a state school

she was really smart and nerdy

[west light]

Oh

[devout furnace]

[stoic girder]

[devout furnace]

[stoic girder]

[west light]

You'll cook I wrote mine in 3 days

[devout furnace]

qhasti how do we get princeton server icon

or banner

[near citrus]

Are the regional AO’s accurate ?

[white marten]

238 minutes

[west light]

as in?

[near citrus]

Like there’s probably another AO looking at your application as well

[west light]

probably yeah

[near citrus]

Or it could be the dean of admissions and your regional officer most likely

[old turtle]

something something you ask for it. I think nobody asked 😅

[west light]

😦

[jade sage]

The Princeton Insta story

[mortal ermine]

from what i understand the regional AO that they publish on the website is the most senior so there would be more junior AOs doing a first read and then if you go to committee you are presented to the regional AO and other higher ups like the dean of admissions

[jade sage]

Can’t they tell USPS not to alert though?

[white marten]

Ladies and gentlemen place your bets now, did I get deferred or rejected

[jade sage]

I’m sure they can

[white marten]

Maybe??

[west light]

I think you get accepted

[white marten]

Perhaps

[west light]

You seem like a stereotypical ivy league student

[white marten]

Crashing out constantly? Yeah

Im going to get absolutely wrecked by the curriculum

Let’s see if I hold up

With schoolwork it’s easier for me to not crash out because it’s an outcome I can reasonably control

[jade sage]

Everyone listen to “Let It Be” by the Beatles and be happy

[white marten]

I’m hoping for deferral at this point

I refuse to see acceptance as possible until I’m staring at it

[dusty jay]

Like someone getting in

And it was posted today

So I doubt it’s questbridge rigjt

[old turtle]

yeah, probably QB

[white marten]

I’ve seen several instances of people celebrating early and saying they’re not QB or athlete

I think they’re either lying or have insane hubris

[old turtle]

probably not legit then

[white marten]

Yeah

[dusty jay]

So all ivies come out today?

[old turtle]

no

[white marten]

Harvard and Cornell and us

[dusty jay]

Oh weird
