<p>Wow, up two week early, huh?</p>

3

<p>The 2006 one just kept getting bumped up and up. ;)</p>

4

<p>I just thought I'd bump this since we now have less than 24 hours until decision time. I swear, I'm not even in the same vicinity as everyone on this board but I honestly can FEEL the anxiety, hope, and wonder in the air. Good luck tomorrow everyone! I hope they reject everyone else and just give us CCers free passes (as if)!!</p>

5

<p>the decisions have most likely been made, but i still hope everyone gets a stroke of luck in their favor tomorrow</p>

6

<p>Someone's a bit anxious...</p>

<p>Anyway, good luck to all!
<<<< expecting rejection. I bet tomorrow I'll prove myself right!</p>

7

<p>Update the format to include whether or not you got letter number 3. :)</p>

8

<p>Completely forgot. Remember to remove all of the spaces, and pick if you received admissions e-mail 1, 2, 3, or any combination.</p>

<p>haha... flutterfly, let's play nice and at least wait for everyone to get results</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ON CC THAT APPLIED! except those of you who freaked out about not receiving some email ;-)</p>

13

<p>^Hey, not nice! I got caught up in the crazy, but now, I am ready to face rejection with a smile (or at least without an evil plan to get the admissions officers back in mind).
Indian: To find the e-mail number, look at the bottom of the e-mail you were sent. It should have a # symbol followed by a couple of zeros. Then, you will see either the number 1, 2, or 3. There's an entire, huge debate going on about it, which is now the most posted on thread in the UC Berkeley section, which is why we want to know if whether or not students received the e-mail (and which one they received) has any impact upon admission.</p>

14

<p>Yes, don't forget the Email info!!!</p>

<p>Castel - you should update your post :P</p>

15

<p>We should add a "going to attend" and "other schools accepted to" category...saw it on some other threads and thought it was a good idea :)</p>

<p>oh and good luck to all applicants and congrats to regents! go bears!</p>

16

<p>the format for 'other factors' didn't work for me... is there something wrong on the template? </p>

<p>@dmission, its been 20 mins since castel posted so he can't edit it...</p>

<p>@ elliot_j, oops... sry it won't let me delete it now</p>

17

<p>Oh, my bad..</p>

<p>Well, everyone, use hopefullybright's format on pg.1 so we can figure out that email!</p>

18

<p>Sucks how I can't update...</p>

<p>I wish I could add:
1) Which college you got into?
2) E-mail #?</p>

<p>I think I'll start a new thread for e-mail/acceptance correlation in order to easily obtain information...</p>

19

<p>updated format...</p>

<p>TAKE OUT ALL SPACES IN BETWEEN BRACKETS!</p>
