I hope some good news comes out of my status soon. Or news at all. Honestly if I get rejected, I'll be dissapointed, but at least I'll know. Come on Cornellia, hurry the fuck up!

GermX:denyI often wonder how highly online personality correlates to real life personality. Some people I just think MUST actually be that way for better or worse.

Are we really arguing about online personality? Cornell, please give us our decisions already so that we can go back to leading normal lives and get off our damned computers.

This is bizarrely cryptic. I am assuming you went to DR? Do you have admitted student links? If you call they'll tell you over the phone. Why wait a few days?autarkh wrote:Yep.Mosca wrote:Not for me.

I dunno, but I'm leaning against it.Mosca wrote: Good luck! Are you going to call?
For one, they say not to. But also, I don't want them to be answering phones when they should be reviewing other people's apps. As much as I revile snail mail, I figure I can wait till it gets here.

They'll tell me over the phone? The status checker says to wait 10-14 days.

But they usually dont change the status checker until they think the mail will have reached your house.
I called from work and got my answer. But, when i got home, it was there waiting for me!

I'll probably wait.
I know its torture, but I'm really on the margins, and if the outcome isn't what I want, I need to have something tangible in my hands to vent my frustration.

Ha, you have SO much more patience than I do. If you have admitted student links, congrats you're in! Otherwise, it may be less than awesome news. (I think all recent admits have the links, correct?)autarkh wrote:I'll probably wait.

My Droid does seem to be built like a tank, but it would probably be unwise to test its impact resistance.

You gotta admit, though, that it would be a really cool feature to market: "Can withstand being hurled at up to 30 m/s into the nearest hard surface upon notification of unfavorable grad school admission outcome."Jericwithers wrote: But I thought that droid does everything

So excluding the reserve list, Cornell does have a waitlist group compiled, correct?
Re: Cornell waiting room

Re: Cornell waiting room

That is scary to see those number (very very similar to mine) on the waitlist. But oddly comforting to know that applying early action may not have had a negative affect, since similar numbers are getting the same results.nuss3 wrote:WL'd today. 169/3.55--applied first week of january, complete 3/10/, DR 4/19 (although it didn't change till today--little fuckers retroactively changing dates). will be withdrawing shortly.
