Open Thread: Not Admitted Early by Decisions

“It’s all right. It’s just a small pebble in your path. Just a tiny pebble. The place you want to be is farther than this, right? That’s why it’s ok…you can get up and immediately continue on…” – Guts (actually Kentaro Miura)

There were so many wonderful applicants to MIT this year, which unfortunately means that we had to turn down some truly great students. For those of you who fall into this category, this is an open forum for you to talk, shake it off, and remember you will survive, even thrive, wherever you go; whatever you do. As a wise blogger once wrote: stove cook your oatmeal, and never look back.

We understand that this may be a difficult time for you, but we ask that you converse in the comments below civilly and with the best of intentions, as that is the spirit of our process.
