| How are you feeling? For all of you EDers who got accepted, (aka the first members of Pton Class of 2011!!) how are you feeling right now. Of course, I'm super-excited, but also a bit in awe and questioning the decision, asking myself how I, above all of those other uber-qualified applicants, got into the #1 school in the country!
Are you guys feeling the same way? |

| yep, pretty much. there are so many amazing applicants. i keep looking at the letter again to make sure i didn't imagine it or something. i am also really excited about the packet they are sending "later this month" and about buying stuff from the online store  |

| Make that #1 school in the world!
Yeah, I feel so unworthy. But the happiness is numbing the doubt. |

| I'm still paranoid about my acceptance (got the decision days ago). I keep thinking that it'll get retracted or something... |

| I've now passed the hysteria stage and am feeling kind of shocked and numb. And I start tearing up every once in a while. Is this normal?  |

| I think if you got all A's you can slip down to B's? Maybe a C in there but its all final averages so the first half of the year will balance stuff out. |

| I would think that anything above this would be fine:
A A- B+ A- B C+/B-
I dunno just really anything reasonable. It's not like they want to rescind the admission offer. |
