That's nothing in the long run. Especially, if he gets admitted. And if he doesn't.... there's is value to peace of mind no?

Oh, I know. Stanford is a huge long shot for me. That was probably the worst $112 bet I will ever make.

Decision letter sent today. Not upset at all*, as I knew it was coming (no Stanford-specific LORs, no tailoring of PS, average softs/numbers). Applied 11/2, Complete 11/8.

*I don't mean this in the trying-to-look-like-I'm-too-good-for-SLS way, as I would certainly have gone if admitted, just that I have no desire to be in Cali so it's not a crushed dream or anything. Good luck to everyone else still waiting! <3

:cry: :cry: :cry:. I'm super bummed now Eski. Oh well, there's still a strong chance we will both end up in Chicago! <3

On a less sensitive note, this is more support for the chronological order theory.

I'm really fine. They were obviously just saving a place for you in the class of '14!* <3

But yeah, I definitely think it's chronological, or I surely would have heard earlier!

Hmm. I submitted mid-November. I can't decide if I should hurry to send my LOCI now or wait to see if I get spared a DLS and submit after that.

I feel like if they'd reject me now, an LOCI probs wouldn't help anyway?

I agree. I feel like a LOCI may help to push from WL to accept, but not reject to WL or accept. And WL's are not going out right now.

:( Still sad to see someone go. Especially because this thread (compared to last year's) has fewer common faces.

PS-We need some people on the inside at Stanford. Last year they had people at Stanford UG who could actually talk to Dean Deal periodically.

Actually I think it's the other way around. Sure it might not help if you're going to get a DLS by the end of the week, but you don't know that. So it can only help if you send one in. Even if it doesn't help, it can't hurt. Who knows, it might be the straw that broke the DLS's back.

My mom just emailed me to remind me it's my birthday. When I was born we were using the Chinese Lunar calendar, I was born on New Years Day. :mrgreen: So it's my birthday today-tomorrow.

Thank you! My drivers license says 2 weeks from now though. But I always celebrated this one, even though it changes every year!

At least it keeps things interesting. And it is still better than my relative born on February 29th. Although she compensates by having a month long birthday. :roll:
