<p>accepted-- scholarship pending on your financial need. You'll most likely get a merit one as well.</p>

<p>Good luck :)</p>

<p>how the **** are you predicting 41 points for yourself? If you are so confident that you already think you can get 7s on at least 3 exams (assuming you and 6s on the others) you need to have a reality check/make an appointment with a psychologist.</p>
