<p>Accepted, but my stats are posted on the likely page, so I won't repeat them. Anyway, becuase of the likely, it wasn't that big a shock, but I was still a bit nervous they'd made a mistake or something though :-P</p>

<p>Congratulations to all of You!!!!</p>
<p>babybird,</p>
<p>I'm just crushed that you didn't get in. You've been such a wonderful person in this forum. I was really pulling for you. I know you already got into NYU and that's a great school in a great city. I hope you get in to a few more just so you can reject a few of them. Stick around here, it wouldn't be as much fun without you.</p>

<p>Ahh, Babybird, I'm really sorry to hear that you haven't been accepted. :( You were such a presence on the Dartmouth board that it's hard to imagine it without you. This is making me nervous - anyone hear of calidan or blu?</p>
