They go in order

1). Rejections
2). Wait Lists
3). Acceptances

This is really depressing...I'm sorry guys, hang in there, a year from now you'll look back on this and will be so happy for being wherever you are

Waitlisted, oh well. I was expecting worse after being rejected from Duke yesterday. Got Emory and still waiting to hear from Chicago.
