You're young.

Apply to a half dozen. Not only will you get into one of them, but you'll have your social security number memorized for all time.

Great. No one gives a fuck.

Fun fact - I was rejected from the first college I ever applied to. It was also the only one I applied to that year. Not only that, but I moved there about 9 months before the year I applied for. You know why? To get credits that would transfer better to that university. EGGS, BASKET, WATCHED THEM GET CRUSHED.

Fun fact - I still got in. Wrote an appeal letter saying, "You dun fucked up, bitches. I AM THE UNABOMBER!"

Congrats. But you should apply to more than one unless they have a 100% acceptance rate for your GPA, and their funding hasn't been cut again this year.

Yep. Should also apply at least for 1 university that is also unlikely to accept you. (Ivy League, CMU, Stanford, etc.)

Well this is the first of 3 early decision/action colleges. These are also my top 3 choices (none are private or ivys, all instate + one out of state)

If I don't get into any of those, then a bunch of instate

You're like THE resident ATOT teen with your mindless teenage drivel here.

What are you like.. 100 lbs?

When I said something like this to you in H&F you started calling me an internet rager and sprouted off some INTJ bullshit...

Are you ATOT's pot or kettle??

Let it go buddy... how do you hold onto such grudge over something that happens online? Your little flaming was what, back in spring?

Sorry Trident, it was uncalled for. I'm having a bad night.

Don't lose any sleep over it, getting into clown college isn't nearly as competitive as it used to be.

Must be rough when you see receptionists brining in $75k and you're bearly scraping by on half that.

Whoooaaa... EASY KETTLE!

Wow, I really pushed your button back then. Sheesh.

Talk about just a ball of anger and bitterness. Remember that thread where you bitterly flamed me out of nowhere like this and everyone called you an asshole?

Let it go, buddy. This is silly internet.

Easy Kettle. Marriage is rough, especially when the man isn't the breadwinner. Have another vodka. I'm sure that'll solve whatever it is you two are fighting about tonight; at the very least you won't be able to remember it in the morning.

Boy, keep shooting in the dark. :)

Let it go, man. I'm just a nobody on internet. I didn't know I had this much power over you.

Every time you make these desperate reach, you just make a further fool of yourself.

Let it go. How do you get so mad over something so.. trivial and dumb long ago in the past?

Hm I was curious myself. It was $50 my days too.

I looked up a small sampling:

BC is $75 (semi-prestigious private)

Umass Amherst is also $75 (a decent state school)

Harvard is also $75

Forget early decision.

Just go to one of these. There should be one around the corner.
