That is a pretty abstract way to say "decision deferred".Nerves must be getting to us, we are in typo hell...CyLaw wrote:finalaspects wrote:what do you mean nothing is in it? They spent you an envelope with nothing in it?Veritas wrote:got the mail, nothing in it.
I think Veritas meant that he got today's mail, and nothing from Cornell was in his mailbox.

Cornell doesn't seem to YP that aggressively, but his numbers are way high for Cornell, if I was adcomm I wouldn't expect him to attend.talibkweli wrote:you think there is a realistic chance you'll get yp pwned?Helmholtz wrote:11/24 decision, nothing in the mail today.

I ran to the mail box in the middle of a down pour. Forgetting it was locked, I fumbled with my keys, desperately feeling for the small, gold key that opens my pandora's box. Everyday I ruffle through the catalogs and coupons yearning to leave some hope for tomorrow in that little black box. Today was no different. Cornell. I was expecting a letter yet I was torn. Receiving it meant the likely end of a journey - deferred into the oblivion of high LSATs and GPAs they would rather have. Nothing, meant hope, hope for something positive the next day.
The key fit and I twisted the lock open. Yanking down the little door I peered in, reluctantly. The rain pelted against my face, I didn't have time to decipher envelope sizes right there. I grab the bundle of papers and bolted inside. A quick glance yielded nothing. After a thorough rifling, to my dismay and glee, my Cornell decision remains unknown. Tomorrow: another day, just hanging in with a little bit of hope.

No. But I'm now convinced that when I do, it'll be a deferral.Veritas wrote:did you get anything?forza wrote:Why would Cornell defer someone well above their 75's? YP?

No, not really, at least when I look at Cornell's LSN graph, it doesn't look that way. I'm at least four points above their 75th LSAT, but a tad below their 25th GPA, according to their website. Cornell was definitely a safety. Who knows how MVP is going to go this year, Duke loves GPA and CCN are far from a given. I can really see a scenario where Cornell is the best school I get into and I would be really happy to go. YP would suck big time.talibkweli wrote:you think there is a realistic chance you'll get yp pwned?Helmholtz wrote:11/24 decision, nothing in the mail today.

The details are concrete enough to sketch an adequate picture, but I wanted a fuller portrait of the character's anxious, and dare I say, fragmented psyche. (I do appreciate the ambivalence contained by the descriptor "dismay and glee", but this seems contrived to sidestep the word "anxiety".) Overall, a solid effort.
