Dinged at 9:01am. And after I had gotten my hopes up and everything :<

I'm going to go eat some sour grapes.

Congrats to all those who _did_ get in.

It feels like a death march.

I'm hoping for a swift execution; the last thing I want is a rejection in August.

See...this makes me suspect the validity of that earlier post that said they were in the T50s, top 5%, PT, and got in.

Invalidity is one possibility. Another is that softs actually matter (unlike for normal admissions, where they clearly do not).

Ditto. I've yet to be dinged (#1 at a school in the 50's) but I think it's just a matter of time.

PT though? And in the face of rejections such as Snowboarder's? That soft must've entialed saving an out-of-control bus full of nuns.

heard nothing. Not even a "we received your e-mail of withdrawal." Status still says "Ready for Review." And I called them up to withdraw in the first place, and they were like "just send an e-mail." So I guess I've tried my best to withdraw, and I will be laughing if I get in and explain this to the Dean.

When is the deadline that the most recent admits have to decide by?

Maybe they're waiting to get a final tally, and might accept one or two of those of us still waiting depending on how many people enroll?

Who knows. I've been Ready for Review since mid-June.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking.
