All 7000 applicants to UC Berkeley law school recieved an email telling them that they had been accepted even though only about 800 would actually be admitted. The email was sent out by mistake. In a follow-up email the school explained and apologized.

“I know that many law school applicants are particularly anxious while awaiting the arrival of decision letters, and I regret that this incident may have added to that tension.”

Do you think?
