Any more waiting for Stanford in tha house? I think it's this Wednesday, April 1st, 5 PM Pacific. Am I right?

I hope they don't send me a letter congratulating me on being accepted, and then, at the bottom of the letter- "April Fools! You were rejected!"

Don't want to sound nitpicky but it's Washington University in St Louis or Wustl for short, not University of Washington St Louis. I already graduated from college and am pretty much finishing up my medical school interview season. Anyone in the same boat? Btw, David Geffen Med Woot! 40K in loans double woot! 10 years of slaving away without sleep triple woot! Btw, Stanford has now rejected me twice, once for college and for medical school. Ah Stanford what could've been...

Pros and cons:
1) UCLA: cheap, hot girls (pending on how you look), great weather, awesome Korean scene, good reputation, very competitive though.
2) Berkeley: cheap, ugly girls (but easier to get!), nice weather, diverse, better reputation than UCLA although not by much, very competitive
3) Duke: prestigious, bit more expensive, not sure about girls, bad weather, not California

result: Go to UCLA if you're good looking. Go to Berkeley if you're into academics. Go to Duke if you really really care about that ranking from US news or if they offer you sick scholarship.

UCLA is expensive though if you're out of state, like any other school right?

Yea, it's like a private school then and given the economy probably more expensive. I've lived in Cali all my life so I sometimes forget that not everyone's a Cali resident...

one reason to go east coast/prestigious is to broaden your horizons and take on a bigger world. go east coast and work in new york's biggest firms and go head to head with the nation's brightest and the richest.
duke is way more expensive than UCs btw. 50k vs 30k. although duke would probably give more financial aid than the UCs. and it doesn't have california weather, but it's pretty southern and sunny. you wont ever see 3 feet snow like in Yale.

Not sure if people are posting grad school acceptances here too but here's mine:
Math PhD programs:
UCSD- accepted
Rutgers University - accepted
UCLA - Rejected
University of Wisconsin - still waiting
Also I saw alot of people applied to Wash U, i just graduated from there in 04', was a great school feel free to ask me any questions about it if you'd like.

ps- Although I just registered for TL.net, I've been visiting this site and its forums for over a year, really like the community here. I play on ICCUP as icJuice (I'm a weak D zerg ^^).
