I heard that the adcom will go through applications and if you’re the “right” application at the “right” time, they’ll admit you. Like this:

Dean of Admissions: Hey, Suzie. You’re the admissions officer for California. Have a solid student from SoCal who is great at the violin?

Admissions officer from California: Yeah, i think I remember one student. (searches) Ah, here she is.

Dean of Admissions: Great! Let’s admit her.

This is probably not correct, but just something funny I heard about the Yale admissions process. Could be true though. Byerly??
