[li] Gender: female[/li][/ul]Other Factors: bad, bad interview! (but it wasn't my fault and I don't think it hurt me too much. I think my interviewer might have been high at the time). I also don't think that one of my teacher recs ever arrived. General Comments: YAY! And I love you all. I also want to say that it was really disappointing to see people deferred. I would love to go to school with all of you next year because you sound really awesome. And maybe I will. You have great stats and will do really well in the RD round, I'm sure.</p>
<p>I also got in this year...so if you want to compile a list for statistical accuracy of this year's crop of CC admits/defers/rejects, you probably should include me.</p>
<p>Congrats to all who were accepted, and best of luck to those who were deferred and are still seeking acceptance. It's strange that not a single person who was denied acceptance has posted his or her result.</p>
