<p>as for my stats they really weren’t off the chart</p>

<p>I guess dreams do come true</p>

<p>That’s great.
Any info on Likely Letters? How many do they tend to send? Is it just Wharton?</p>

<p>well lightzout got one for CAS so i dont think its just wharton</p>

<p>So I just got home and sat down in front of my computer like I would on any other average homework-laden night. Weary and sleep-deprived, I refreshed my email, searching desperately for some inspiration to re-enter into the delightful world of AP statistics. The internet went down. When it reloaded, I saw an odd message load on the bottom of a screen, seemingly squished by a sizable amount of Facebook notification spam. Curiously, I scrolled down and clicked on the message.</p>

<p>I am still shaking :)</p>

<p>Anyone know how many they send out?</p>

<p>thats amazing congrats guys… now we all just get to freak out haha…</p>

<p>What did the email say?</p>

<p>congrats!! I’m happy for you guys!!</p>

<p>Mmm, but where’s mine? okay now i’m a little bitter lol</p>

<p>I got one too! Do they send out “possibly” and “unlikely” ones too?</p>

<p>“unlikely”? THAT would be cruel.</p>

<p>HAHA! I don’t mind if its a possibly or unlikely, I’m dying to hear :D</p>

<p>Congrats guys! That’s awesome.</p>

<p>i’m jealous!!!</p>
