Once upon a time, I graduated from one of the top universities in the US. Its faculty was known throughout the world, and it's students were told over and over again that they were among the brightest in the nation.
That is until today. When UCSD accidentally told 29,000 applicants that they were accepted- when in fact they had been rejected. Oops.
Now, I remember what waiting for college app results was like- akin to what I think getting tested for STDs would be like. You totally want to know, but then again, you really really don't just in case.
Well done, UCSD for bolstering hope and excitement for thousands of high school seniors, only to have to turn around and say, 'Just Kidding- you lose!'
At least I guess they can try and spin this as a cruel April Fools joke....Dumb asses.
