thank you, all!!!!  boalt is pretty much my #1 choice out of the 4 i've gotten so far, and there are several i won't even care about now that this has happened.  CA reputation is huge for me.

That's awesome.  Congratulations.  I like hearing about these acceptamces. They are motivation to study for Saturday!

btw, my family is STILL on a cruise, back monday.  $7/minute to call the ship, so i wasn't inclined to call before, but i'm calling tonight!!

edit: i cried three (!) separate times at work out of sheer joy.  lovely.  nothing like being calm and professional

How high is that on your list? Would you prefer any schools (other than YHS) over that?

Regardless thats awesome!

HYS def prefer, col/NYU might prefer, the rest prob don't prefer.  so LOWEST is #6 for me.  HYS are unrealistic to unlikely, so it's #3.

edit: i should also mention that because boalt is a GPA whore, i really didn't expect this at all.  i was giving it 50/50 odds.  so this is the first one i've gotten that i didn't almost-know i'd get.  that's what makes it worthy of the more-than-twice-as-expensive-as-phone-sex phone call.

Pookie,

Sincerest congratulations.  It's weird to feel so happy for someone you don't know except through a message board, but know that I feel that happy for you.

And now you just have to wait for HYS to call! 

But either way, you will essentially have your pic at CA jobs now!  Hooray for Pookie!

Congrats!  Boalt is a huge deal.  So Boalt is ahead of MICHIGAN for sure due to location?  How come you're so set on Cali, just out of curiosity?
