Sorry that you're not feeling well Koala, but thanks for the info!

I am less terrified about February arriving, now that I know *coughwildspeculationcough* that rejections don't go out until the later half of the month.

As soon as calls went out at like 4-5PM west coast time in mid November, I stopped making any assumptions about what SLS was going to do based on what they had done in the past.

Is there any way to send a fourth letter of rec tailored to Stanford after the app is marked complete? Is that even worth it?

I haven't read back that far, but I was just wondering how long people have been "under review" for?

People, please convince me to apply here, before the deadline makes the decision for me. I keep telling myself it isn't worth it w/ my 3.75.

So who else here didn't submit a LOR tailored to Furd?

Apparently they like those, but I couldn't find a professor of mine that was connected to the school in any way so I didn't think it was appropriate.

The better question is who did. I wouldn't worry about it.
