Dinged. Was a double underdog, so it was a long shot. Good luck to everyone else!

Ding!
Not surprised at all, and really not that heartbroken. I was a complete long shot. At this point, I'm just happy that the waiting is coming to an end!

Re: UC Berkeley c/o 2017 Applicants (2013-2014)
I'm actually optimistic for an admit wave on Wednesday and then dings/WLs around Friday. We'll see, though - it would mean a slightly faster turnaround than people saw in FR1.

In that case, I will try to refrain from checking this thread and my Berkeley status checker on Wednesday and Thursday. That way, if I'm dinged and your optimistic timeline is correct, I can still enjoy a couple more days of hope that acceptances go out on Friday and WL/dings next week =)fkt18 wrote:I'm actually optimistic for an admit wave on Wednesday and then dings/WLs around Friday.

I'm sure you'll get in though! I'd just want to know by Friday if I got WLed/rejected, since my final exams start next week and I don't want to be distracted by bad news.cesium wrote:In that case, I will try to refrain from checking this thread and my Berkeley status checker on Wednesday and Thursday.
