this assumes that anyone who applied after fr1 defaults to fr2, though, which i don't think is how it works?

I went UR just a few days before the FR wave, so I'm hoping that I'm not being pushed off to FR2!

same here... definitely hope that's not the case! it would seem kind of odd if we all got pushed to fr just because.

I went complete and under review 1/31.

My theory is that everyone marked UR now will be a part of this second batch and will be marked FR1 once those in the first batch of FR either make the cut or are denied. We'll see.

I'm wondering if those of us who haven't been pushed into FR yet will be hearing decisions soon. I submitted my app on 12/4, got my UR status on 12/16, and silence since then. But since the app deadline was 2/1, I'm guessing the last-second apps that were submitted are just finishing their processing, so those of us who were not auto-admits or auto-rejects are being weighed against all of the other apps that just came in to see who goes into FR2

Does anyone know what last year's FR1 date was and/or what happened between that date and FR2? I may have to do some research later today...

Also, the psychology of this thread is interesting. We're all clinging to this Wednesday thing like mad people.

No, it doesn't. There will be two batches of FR1. Stay tuned and get comfortable.
