In at Berkeley?

I got an email saying I'm in at Berkeley. I just applied a week and a half ago though, so it's crazy fast. Should I call just to make sure I didn't receive it by mistake? I had a friend of mine who accidentally received an admit email from Berkeley a few years ago so I am crazy skeptical.

Your status checker should update to admitted if you are in for sure.

Congrats! I also got the email today, along with an "Admitted" update to my status checker. Maybe they just haven't started making phone calls yet today.

I actually realized I had a missed 510 call. Guess that was it! Yay!

When did you go complete, like 11/25? A week and a half is CRAZY FAST. Did you have gpa and lsat above their 75 or something??
I went complete around the same time

I submitted last Friday. The 26th I think. 167/172 retake and a 3.86 gpa. Lotsa softs though.

so, in essence, a 172/3.86, which, off the top of my head, puts you above both of their 75s, I believe. Moreover, if you had lots of softs, that, of course, bodes well also.
I guess I'm not TOO surprised, then, by such a quick acceptance with your numbers and allegedly impressive softs, but that's still really, really quick.
Congrats!
