2. The badger scan did have some noteworthy dissimilarities to data published by schools.

The only reason I remained on the waitlist at GW was to say I got into a T20 school, if accepted. Time to withdraw from there! Not moving from the Wisconsin WL, though

It's pretty cool, but I'm not that big of a rankings whore (prob. why Wisconsin is still tops on my list)
Still THRILLED about Illinois though!

It wasn't the skepticism; it was the cockiness... not yours, per se, but oh-so-many others. Have I mentioned lately how good it feels to be vindicated?

Yuck.
Ugly formatting is intact.
Looks as if the leak was someone getting a hold of a mockup.
