Who here anticipated rejection but got accepted?

<p>Who thought they were going to get denied but it turned out to be the opposite?</p>

<p>Share your stories, stats, circumstance, etc. here. This is a chance to congratulate yourselves.</p>

<p>lol did u get in? </p>

<p>i was one of these people. ahh i cant believe it. i thought i was a total dumb***. and i am lol but somehow i got in!</p>

<p>me… i was totally ready for rejection… i got rejected from almost all my colleges… until UCB made my day! all thanks to God, w/o Him i know I wouldn’t have made it in.</p>

<p>yea, basically thought i was screwed cause i applied to the college of engineering. 13% acceptance rate or something like that. got in though, and so relieved.</p>

<p>I totally thought I was going to get rejected because I had really average tests scores, but surprisingly I got in! I can’t believe it!</p>

<p>Last year a friend of ours didn’t get into UC Davis but got in UCB.</p>

<p>yeah idk i got a 440 on chem and french and 610 on math subject tests. thats beyond me! i guess it has partly to do with my disability and my essay…but still. it almost seems ridiculous lol i didnt get into UCLA or NYU.</p>

<p>I anticipated rejection because even though my GPA is high, my SAT I test scores wasn’t superb.</p>

<p>dae, I like your giving honor/recognition to God! Congratulations to all who were surprised!</p>

<p>I completely ruled Berkeley out after getting rejected from UCLA. But, well, whadayaknow?! :D</p>

<p>i had no idea i would get into berkeley! my gpa is good but my SAT is in the 1800s</p>

<p>Same here. My test scores were good, but not the best.
School report was awesome though.
Still shocked.
:D</p>

<p>truelove, i know without Him I would have nooo chance :)</p>

<p>dlee93, thats exactly how i felt! I really like how Berkeley reviews more holistically and not just by stats… mine were average for instate but low for out of state, which i was</p>

<p>and i love how the Berkeley congratulation talked about how the number one way to describe Berkeley was passion</p>

<p>congrats to you all!</p>
