And wait-listed at Harvard which, you know, OK! He's heard from 8 schools now. Accepted at 3 (Duke, Davidson, Emory) and wait-listed everywhere else, no rejections. Still waiting on two CA schools - Stanford and Harvey Mudd. Stanford is the only one that could lure him away from the fold.

Momentary lapse of sanity and/or 30 seconds of bragging rights - no question Andrew was in the top 11% of applicants, probably top 2 or 3 %. Glad Duke recognized that.
All right, done with the ego trip.
First off, congrats to Andrew!
But nope, we are not done with the ego trip. The not-so-young Turk had a big day as well. She finished the season at 5-0-1, with a waitlist from Johns Hopkins marring an otherwise undefeated admissions campaign. Wins include DUKE!!, Penn, UVA, Pitt, and Penn State's Shreyer College. She's actually in Pittsburgh as I type, interviewing for the chance for more fabulous cash and prizes in the bonus round. She still does not have a clear favorite, so I guess we'll have to see what the financial packages look like to help narrow it down. (I however, DO have a clear favorite, but I have learned the hard way that it's best to keep my yap shut every once in a while...)

Vibes for the not-so-young Turk to make the right decision.

Well, Stanford chose not to accept Andrew so his batting average is much below the Young Turklett but that means
Bump, ba-bump,
Bump, ba-bump,
Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum Bump Ba Bump Bump
Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum Ba Bump!
See ya at the tailgate on Parents' Weekend!
And Congrats to the Young Turklett too. Good luck in the decision making process. Ours is easy.
