<p>I got a call from a professor last week and he said the admissions committee thinks i'm impressive, likes my app, etc., and asked if i had any questions (but he did not say that i am admitted)...also, i NEVER got a likely letter.........</p>
<p>I want that phone call too ... you probably have a better chance than we do. </p>
<p>This might be a marketing spoof by the Stanford admissions people to increase yield by showing how interested they are in you and by showing how profs are so approachable. </p>
<p>In any case, CONGRATS ... you must really be impressive.</p>
