Congratulations Pleasewharton!!! I believe you for the simple reason that sometimes people undergo special circumstances and show them so well in their apps that they DO get accepted.
To all of you out there-it might be hard to believe what the OP said is true,but then we’re all used to stellar stats here on cc.However,the OP had almost no money and didnt know english till a year ago.The admission officers obv must have considered that.I personally find it very courageous on the OP’s part to go through the gruelling process on her own.
