Pygmalion Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) No, it was me not a troll. I've received a mail from the department an hour ago. (It is 5 A.M here, but who cares?) BU result is real. Trust me. Edited January 25, 2017 by Pygmalion

What I think is even better is the 3.00 in the Writing section of the GRE that apparently is enough to get into Boson University. That seems to be a very low ranked school That post has been now deleted... But this comment is rude and disgusting.

wqndy Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 I confirm a UIUC waitlist, and this is the first notification I received by now. As far as I know from the email, UIUC's first round of admissions had been completed. So if you receive no notification, you are at least not selected in the first round.

It's okay cause I'm not so offended. It was my "bottom" choice and I also acknowledge that they would not be the "real places" for most applicants. I just want to say that judging an argument (and a department) with mere GRE writing score is definitely not a good choice, especially if you are going to be a graduate student. wqndy and resDQ 1 1

They aren't mocking Boston University. They're making fun of Boson University, which was a made up school with made up stats by a troll trying to make a funny. And so, they were referring to the the fake stats as funny because, if they were real, they would likely have indicated a not-so-great school as it would not have been very competitive.

Now I understand what was wrong with there... Boson... not Boston... It is not 6AM and I haven't slept at all today. Yeah. It was my mistake lol...

But based on results section, looks like there are two Theory acceptances claimed here, plus your American acceptance, making 3 accounted acceptances (they seem like they took 7 or so last year)... am I doing the math right here? Edit: I am also assuming that the previous Northwestern from over a week ago was a troll Edited January 25, 2017 by RevTheory1126 PS
RevTheory1126 Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 also, congrats to @Pygmalion and @wqndy on acceptance and waitlist, respectively... best of luck throughout the rest of the process! wqndy and Pygmalion 2
krapp Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 Now that I know Northwestern results are coming out my productivity at work tomorrow will be zero. Who can focus on work when you can refresh your email instead?!
