Congrats to everyone who has got in so far.
Since we've had a couple more admits in the last few minutes, I guess that means that they are back from their lunch break.

I really don't know why you'd be surprised though to get rejected from Chicago...Chicago's numbers are not that high and it's one of those schools where numbers can determine far less than they can for a big class like Harvard. Granted, a Stanford admission means you had a stellar app...but that probably means you had a stellar app for STANFORD, not Chicago.

Best of luck to you though!
Fair enough. I just think that I would be a very good fit for Chicago. If I got/get rejected from Northwestern or Penn or Berkeley, I would not be surprised b/c I don't think I am that good of a fit for those schools. But while I am still not sure where I will go, I think the fact that I am such a good fit for Chicago might lead me to choose Chicago over Harvard or Stanford, assuming I get into Chicago.

This is all a silly debate. Sorry if I came off poorly. It's nearly impossible to communicate tone on message boards, and I can see how my original post came off the wrong way.

"Still on the phones. We try calling all admits, but no int'l calls and no message if vm is full or on general/non-personal work vm accounts."
hmm...looks like I'm only waiting for an email then...going to be a tough few seconds when I try to figure out if the email is good or bad news lol...

Wouldn't mean that non-1/9ers are all rejects, just that their numbers are such that they require a more careful/prolonged review.
Well, I got the 1/9 review... But also the 1/12 review, which seems to be the kiss of death.

don't hold your breath. It makes no sense to WL me to RD and then let me in the first day.

Congratulations everybody!
Jam, I still believe you'll get in-but if you choose to go elsewhere, it'll be meant to be. I'm sure you'll be both happy and successful elsewhere :D
Chicago was my dream school for UG and i ultimately got waitlisted because I applied at the last second.
I think everything worked out for the better for not going there and am still happy even though I didn't go to my dream school.
But now my lower body is paralyzed with fear

But you are still my dream school Chicago so I will go if you take me by some miracle-Pleasepleaseplease after you accept Jam.
and I promise to study harder than I did in UG.
