Hey all-
Just hoping to get some feedback about how unusual these results are. I've been waitlisted at quite a few schools where I thought I was an auto-admit with a 172/163 and 3.92 GPA:
Virginia
Georgetown
Duke
Berkeley (rejected)
Could this be because I applied in mid-January, or does my app just suck?
Weird Results?

Honestly, I would say a little from column A and a little from column B.
Not to say your applications sucked, but its relative and I'm sure those schools had a lot of amazing applications.

I don´t necessarily think it´s unusual, I honestly don´t think auto-admits happen as much as we think (hope) they do. Maybe the reader just didn´t like your PS or they were looking for a certain characteristic in courses taken. There are way too many variables to be able to confidently say you´re an auto-admit.
I was also rejected from Berk if it makes you feel better.

Re: Weird Results?
Well we can't know if you app sucked. Your numbers do not make you an auto-admit applying in mid-January. Had you been complete in late October/early November, different story.
