I hadn't actually looked at my status checkers page, and the email Stanford sent me links to the Berkeley status checker and I'm shook.

The link in the email doesn't work, it sends you to the last checker you were at. You have to go to their website.

Haha yeah, I figured it was something like that. Just cracked me up to see it go to Berkeley.

The lost OP returns.

I wish that there were a smiley for offhanded dismissal to all the haters trying to hold me back.

You're my favorite OP. Don't tell Hilde.

Dawww you're my favorite poster. Do you hear that Hilde!?!

You both can go crawl in a hole and die. To quote the amazing Veronica Mars "the hero is the one that stays, and the villain is the one that splits."

Here are the poll results:



In first place is, as always, the Legally Blonde option. Because if there is one thing that people on TLS love, it is that fucking movie. I mean, I kind of get it, but also not? I thought it was alright, just not life-changing. What is it though? Seriously?

In second place is option about how Columbia has stronger LST employment numbers than Stanford. I'm taking it with a grain of salt though, since Columbia is so heavily concentrated in NY biglaw. But still, solid work Columbro.

In third place is....seriously y'all? I mean, really? Being an OP isn't as glamorous as you would think. I mean, sure there are parties, groupies, etc, but there is a lot of work involved. Do you think that last year's Stanford OP just copied and pasted itself. How about a 'thank you' every once in a while. Ungrateful bastards, the whole lot of you.

New poll. Also, I added a link to the admissions spreadsheet to the OP.

You used my full name, how formal of you let me guess, you're the one person who picked the "will you be my boyfriend?" option.

You don't know me.

I had a dream that I was waiting in line at the bank, and I was standing next to Bill Cosby.

I guess it's not possible to put a Why X on this application? Or am I just missing something?

I've always assumed that for Stanford (or any of HYS), they know why you want to attend X and that it's just not that helpful to include one.

Eta: I suppose if someone is a 180/4.0 applicant who currently lives in Boston but would almost certainly attend Stanford if admitted, has family ties to the Bay Area, and a SO who has already been accepted to a Stanford graduate program, it might make sense. Maybe.

I'm pretty sure Stanford loves anything that is actually Stanford-specific (rec letters included). My app was basically a love letter to Stanford (I was a Stanford grad student in engineering) and it worked out just fine--I got admitted last year and deferred. But I think to pull that off you probably have to actually understand the school pretty well (and what makes it different from H/Y).

Did any of y'all submit an addenda for Why Stanford? Or is that not a thing?

[QuentonCassidy]

I think it is not a thing in 99% of cases, but I am also far from an authority on this

It's not a thing... But I did. Lol

I didn't for HYS.

Anyone hear anything yet? Does Palo Alto even exist anymore?
