Nope. They are definitely going to be accepted. Able to register for bulldog days. Receives accepted student T-shirt early etc.

No, Yale offers interviews when they need more info. If they have enough to decide in either direction, they don't need an interview.

Haven't heard yet of anyone from NoVa, but i'm sure theres at least one at TJ. Last year there were at least 3 TJ kids that got STEM likely letters. Blair in MD had at least one kid last year.

Last I checked, the youngest male astronaut in the US was in his 30s during the 1970s. Or was he a Katy Perry type astronaut?

Was the gold medal summer or winter Olympics? Or was it IMO?
