Finally went complete today after submitting 1/6. Now I can join the party in hoping/waiting for that JS1 invite.

JS was not kidding after all when she said in the blog that we would receive a notice once a decision has been made.
Still waiting for more info from Cvolz...call me a little skeptical.
Maybe he meant JS1? That seems somewhat more likely, but who knows.

"Due to the snow storm approaching the Cambridge/Boston area, Harvard University will delay opening on Wednesday, January 22 and ask all non-essential personnel to not report to work until 11 a.m. But modified schedules and staffing plans will vary across the Schools, so please look for more specific information from your local leaders."
This makes me think that we might have to wait at least another day.

Ah yeah, that could be. That would explain the statement that concluded that "tomorrow is the day" even though if you got a JS2 I would think you would say that "today is the day."

That's what I assumed based on the wording, I was hesitant to focus on it lest the thread explode.

K, positive thoughts guys.
So who will be the first person you tell after you get your JS2?
lol also how many people will post a FB status about it? I think its fair game as long as its not douchy with a picture / instagram shot of your acceptance letter

Thanks.
Nope. Most (if not all people) have their status date stay the same all the way until they get their decision.

No FB status for me, my work doesn't know so I have to keep it fairly low key. If I got a JS2, it's probably a text to some family members and close friends and then a post ITT.

honestly, I don't think it's THAT douchy to put a picture up, as long as it's like, only one. like either put up a sappy status about it, or just the pic with "BAM!"
I would find like, a paragraph of how you are so grateful and owe so much to so many people blah blah blah to be annoying, or if you were putting up every letter you got. but one I think it sweet idk.

oh and btw, as MDLG can probably confirm, if I am fb friends with you and you don't do a status update I'll do it for you

ETA: for LS22, I'll just post "congrats on your bunion removal surgery!" and assume everyone knows what I'm talking about.

Ooo I forgot about that feature. I still don't think I'll do it. 99% of people on Facebook don't care, the other 1% who do care will get a text. The 0.05% of my Facebook friends who are TLSers will see it ITT

I hope they start re-reading files soon. I really don't want to go through more months of this silence while recent applicants are admitted.....

So that post makes it sound like no one will be wait listed until mid April? WL would be a best-case scenario for me; haven't heard a peep from HLS since I applied in mid-September!

Well this certainly dashed all of my hopes for this week.

As insanely excited as I would be, I'm never one to be that blatant about that stuff. Although, it's getting added to my fb profile.

In a meeting, made some graphs. All are non-URM. The red lines indicate medians. Does anyone know how to do two colors in excel, to include all decisions?

Email me your excel file and I'll take a look at making it two colors if you want. The basic gist is you want a column for each color.
