cupofnimbus Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Has anyone with an IR subfield heard from Cornell? I think I saw one on the board that just went up, but I don't know who. I think I am 5/7 on my predictions for this week. The only remaining ones are Michigan and Notre Dame. Bring 'em on! Those are two of mine and I want to know!

TakeMyCoffeeBlack Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I think I saw one on the board that just went up, but I don't know who. Bring 'em on! Those are two of mine and I want to know! Same here. Fingers crossed and heart pumping. Hoping for the best and preparing for the worst. Thank goodness I've got an awesome offer already.

wokeem Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Thank you for the kind words everyone! The community here has been fantastic throughout this process. I also wanted to say, for those who are worried about this kind of thing, that my GRE scores were 163V, 148Q, and 4.5AW. So while I don't want to do anyone a disfavor in suggesting that they don't matter, remember that they're only a single, and sometimes minor, part of a much larger admission process.

While I completely agree with your point, it is worth noting that you are a political theory person. A low Q score may be more problematic for other subfields. Grain of salt and all. Michigan should be early next week. Thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerasy Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Congratulations to Cornell Admits! Likely I will not be among you... Every day I come home around midnight, make a cup of tea or coffee, start refreshing gradcafe and spend half of the night doing this... I guess I'm getting used to this routine.

Pennington15 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) I honestly just wanted news. I work in intelligence/political forecasting so if i get rejected from all 12 schools it is their loss really.... Applied in Political Theory/History of Political Thought.

I didn't have an application in at Berkeley, but I totally get this sentiment! It's just good to finally know. On the other hand, I don't know whether I'm more afraid of rejections or acceptances...
