If they wanted you, they wanted you for a reason.

Based on the people I know, I can't agree with that statement.

I can say this: Be prepared to work hard. Honestly, no one can really tell you whether you will succeed at Yale. From your scores alone, I would say that your first semester or ever first year is probably going to be quite difficult. If not, then that's great. But if it is, it'll be up to you to persevere and adapt.
