Wow, congrats!

Seems like there's been a steady stream of admits all this week.

Also, suspicious android: I feel like getting WLed at Yale would be a good thing for me.

Good news, I got my admission e-mail yesterday...(I'm overseas, so they didn't call). Very exciting! Now to make a decision...

Went complete 2/9

Good luck to everyone!

Enjoy UVA/Duke for free!:) I applaud your decision since it increases my chances at acceptance by .000001%.

See, I thought that at first, but then I figured that there's some rate of attrition anyway and whether it shows up on TLS probably doesn't demonstrate a significant deviation in the rate.

But I'm being rude doing analysis when someone is withdrawing. Best of luck, dbrddr!

I think the odds of acceptance are significantly lower after this week, but judging by past cycles a few more people will sneak in near the deadline. Maybe all the "12"s are in and they are still figuring out which "11"s to let through?
