[*]Advice? Commiserations? Feel like bragging?:[/ul] Quite frankly I didn’t expect to get in. Not that I’m complaining. It doesn’t matter if I get in anywhere else - I knew all along that if I got into Caltech then that was where I would go. I applied to the Medical Scholar program, too, but it’s too early to know about that one. Crossing my fingers though.</p>
