So everyone who has reported so far is 3.9+/170+ or URM? Feeling better and better about the argument I was making this weekend.

Congrats guys! And Berkeley, if you're going to do it please just give us our dings already. The longer this drags out the uncooler it gets.

Just got the email!

Submitted 1/8
UR 1/15

Both my college and graduate school are located in California, so I wonder if that made a difference, especially since I wasn't born or raised here. Very happy, especially since Berkeley is more holistic, and I haven't been sure about the strength of my PS/Resume.

With your numbers, I don't think you have to worry about 'holistic' reviews from anyone. Congratulations!

I'm at 10/24 and patiently awaiting my ding like a woman instead of withdrawing before I get rejected.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
