160 really isn't that bad and it probably hits very close or slightly lower than the median quant scores for accepted students at most schools. 

The things you are interested in are more comparative politics than IR.

I opened my acceptance email from Yale while eating lunch alone in a tiny town in Colombia. I just froze, then started crying, then went crazy texting friends. The poor lady at the restaurant thought I didn't like the food, and I was too in shock to be able to get anything out in Spanish. Pretty amazing. I took a bunch of "this is where it happened" photos. That town will forever be special to me!

7 replies and nobody has bothered to ask for the relevant data in this situation?  
 
Pictures, man. We need to see pictures of this girl before we advise on the correct course of action.

Cautiously, that list is utter boss. And, by the transitive property of bossness, you are utter boss as well.

Have any Yale admits heard anything about funding? I've only received the generic acceptance email and am eager for more information. So exciting!

I got the mass acceptance email from Yale, too. Don't second guess it, we're in!!

I'm in at Chicago too (didn't post on the results page) and got the same notification as NMLogan.

I wouldn't worry too much - it seems to me that their interview process is pretty informal (including when they request one), and they may not even interview everyone they plan on admitting. Think positive, there's still plenty of time to go!

more admissions decisions, please.

I hear if you login and check your status like 20 times per day then your chances of getting an email increase.  Is this true?  

I'm down! I would also be interested in seeing the mode of communication from each school. I've looked at the results page, and it seems that phone calls are falling out of favor for email, but there are still a few hold-outs. I'm going to be out of the country with no phone the entire notification period, so I have an extra little worry!
