<p>I would realize that with an 8% acceptance rate, my personal self-worth is not determined by admission to the school and examine my financial offers from other schools.</p>
<p>Sadness, perhaps a crying sesh, then I'd get over it and onto my other schools! I know I'll (and all of us will) be happy at at least one other lil place in the US. Or I'll pull an at91.</p>
<p>I would be surprised to get into Stanford since none of my high achieving smart friends ever got into Stanford who got into MIT, harvard, yale, caltech, etc except one certain guy. But if I get rejected, I'll feel bummed out and disapointed, since it's an awesome school, but since it's in california..which is pretty far from CT..</p>
