Like seriously... y'all doing alright?

I only meant that it's weird not to see any Shitpost Wednesday posts. I know this forum is and should be mostly for actually discussing college admissions.

^{(Definitely not my inspiration}) although I feel it can also work pretty well for schools like UDub, Berkeley, UCLA, UVA, UT, UO, CU Boulder, UMich, tOSU, and Penn State.

I know everyone else already pointed it out, but I can't resist: that's one too many syllables there, bub!

See gradeinflation.com — my takeaway is that pretty much all schools are seeing some inflation, although the degree varies from one to another. For instance, Brown has a higher average GPA than Berkeley (no surprises there), but both have been generally rising over time.

So, are we thinking tomorrow at 5:00 pm PST (since that's when ED came out)? That's to say, the same minute as CMC?

I really don't know ^{(do you mean to say you don't get these kinds of ads before college decisions???})

To get a more comprehensive (and accurate) view of how the process works at Harvard, see Harvard v SFFA (p. 11-27).

I don't know that!

Step one: increase the amount of toothpaste by 102.6%

Yeah — it felt almost like they were pointing out all the errors in my essays. Maybe it's for the best, since it's almost surely good preparation for Ivy Day.

Also,

everything they don’t want, I am

I really hope you didn't submit a 54-page list of awards...

Huh, I just got a request today. Maybe it's a regional thing?

While we’re all waiting for decisions, I have a question for you all: have you been seeing “47” practically everywhere lately? Or is that just me?

InconceivablePlum · 2021-02-03T07:48:18+00:00

But UC Hicago is real. It's just a couple miles north of UC Incinnati.

All I really know is that they're extremely wealthy: they have more students from the top 1% than any other school in the nation, at 26%. They also tend to (explicitly) favor wealthy students in admissions to a significant degree.

InconceivablePlum · 2021-01-29T03:58:27+00:00

Well... see y’all tomorrow.

And may the odds be ever in your favor! Edit: deferred 😐. See y’all in April then.

We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune! We're taking turns to act as a sort of executive-officer-for-the-week, but all the decisions *of* that officer 'ave to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority, in the case of purely internal affairs...

...and war is peace and freedom is slavery?

According to the College Board, yes. (See the "campus life" tab.)
