From jweezy
I didn't want to hijack the Acceptance thread, so I will just answer jweezy, and actually ask a question here. OK, so I was all set to go to Cornell/Rockefeller/SK. I got into the MD/PhD program, my fiance got into the Biochemistry PhD program. I told them I would come. I sent in my deposit check. I was ready to move to NYC.
THEN I got an offer from Harvard MSTP. I honestly didn't plan for this, because I honestly didn't think it would ever happen. I still feel unreal as I type this. But what do I do now? My fiancee didn't even apply to Harvard for Grad school. He applied to MIT, but didn't get in.
I am not complaining at all. I know this is a good problem to have. I am thankful. But like jweezy said, it's still a problem, because I don't know what to do. I am torn. I really enjoyed my visit at Cornell, less so at Harvard. But you don't turn down Harvard right? People keep telling me that the name Harvard will follow me and open doors for me for the rest of my life, yah yah yah.
If you have any opinion, I would really appreciate it.
Oh, and Thanks a lot, Jweezy!
WaltzingMatilda - WOW you are AWESOME....does this complicate your life? What'll you do? An enviable problem, but I guess a problem nonetheless...still WAY TO GO!!!
