Yes

Well said. Reminds me of a talk on saw on TED (great source of procrastinations with useful side effects, btw).

I applied for something like an IR/Theory double concentration.

I'm so sorry to hear this ShereKhan; that's awful. My thoughts are with you and your colleague's familiy. I don't know what to say.

Those with offers from Princeton; do you know what the funding situation is? My email mentioned 'full funding' but no further details.

Almost completely, since I went to secondary school in the UK as well. You should look for a female, though .

Great! I am really excited about seeing the campus; I have never been. What's your subfield? I wonder how we will recognise each other at the admit weekends. It's a little awkward to walk up to someone and ask "Excuse me, are you "suddenly paranoid"?" "No, I'm fine actually." Might opt for a name tag.

It's a great position to be in SuddenlyParanoid; I am very impressed! What if Harvard gave you an offer (which they probably will)?

No, will definitely visit - already booked my flights. You? What is your top choice so far? Congratulations on your offer too

Also got into Princeton last night; for IR

The sad thing is, I actually don't! I will have to put in all nighters for the rest of feb and march to make up for all the time I am wasting now.. haha But obsessive, defintely.

more than 100,000 views! wow!

Someone said they had inside information that Columbia will release decisions on Friday. Princeton should happen this week too, probably towards the end. Well, and you read what Concentration just said about Harvard.

Haha I am glad you are making good use of the office hours...

Oh... that's exciting. I will start checking emails every 30 sec instead of the previous 1 min intervals

Almost philosophical...

I really don't recommend it. There have been so many hoaxes because you don't have to log in to submit your results. The silent agreement is that an offer doesn't exist until it is claimed in this thread But if you're curious, underneath the gradcafe.com logo; "results search"

Maybe the person meant he/she got into 1 of the 9 places he/she applied for? Also seems unlikely. I say wait until someone claims it here.

I think someone is trying to shake this week up a little... I shouldn't have said anything.

I didn't mean to complain, nor offend anyone; and I am sorry if my post was interpreted that way. I was just sharing my emotional state, like many people are. This will probably be difficult to understand without knowing me in person, but I have some very strong personal reasons why the Stanford acceptance doesn't solve all my problems, even if it might seem thatway from the outside. So yes, I am still waiting myself, hoping for some newsfrom the East Coast. I hope everything works out for you and everyone else still waiting!

Is anyone else starting to feel more bored than scared? I think I have used up all the energy that I had leftfor freaking out... now I just want to know, either way, and I am starting to feel more annoyed by the uncertainty than scared about what the results mightbe. I just want my life back and know where I will live come fall! Sorry about the rant...

I can imagine...but at least you are in an interesting place? Where exactly are you based? I have spent a fair amount of time in China myself, so I know how you feel...

Let's say I'm from Western Europe My mother is from Sweden though.

I know, it's painful, isn't it? Where are you from?

Ok, here is my list: 1) alarming levels of cigarette consumption 2) cooking, especially the really difficult stuff. I think I must have made at least 50l of icecream over the last weeks. Problem is, I live by myself. So I eat it all. 3) watch 24 - reminds me that things could be worse. I could be kidnapped. Or the victim of a nuclear attack.
