Well, I'll take either alphabetically or chronologically with a December JS1 and a last name beginning with a letter towards the beginning of the alphabet!! fingers crossed :)

Ahhhh I'm in the same boat re: numbers and JS1, but not a URM, and with a last name toward the end of the alphabet. Haven't heard anything (yet).

How late did WLs emails go out last cycle? This slow burn is painful. --ImageRemoved--

WL, just got the email about an hour ago. 3.7x 175+, K-JD, no JS1, early January submit.

I can't say I'm too disappointed because without an interview, I was just hoping to not get dinged. But in the beginning of the cycle, lsn had me convinced that I had a decent shot so it is still kind of a letdown. I think I'm going to ride it out but if it doesn't work out, I'll probably be off to CLS which is not a bad consolation prize.
