<p>I'm flattered, though it often feels like the standardized test scores are determined by throwing darts at a board. XD</p>

<p>Good luck would be very much appreciated. I wasn't worried for the longest time, but now that I see far more qualified candidates than I freaking out, I'm starting to wonder.</p>

<p>Best of luck to you as well! Thank you very much for the reassurances.</p>
