I hate that it's just sitting there and I don't want to want until after September scores come out, as it might ever-so-slightly disadvantage my app. Or is that last point a misconception?
As a counterpoint, I am waiting until after September scores are released and the next wave of fee waivers goes out. From what I can see from last year's thread, waivers were released for Columbia on Nov. 1, which was 4 days after score release (and 2 days after scores were supposed to be released).

September scores are supposed to be released Oct 22, which means they will likely come out tomorrow or Monday.

Just submitted with my new score! Columbia is one of my first choices so I'm hoping for the best.

Nice work graduating from two ugs. (or doing the lulziest transfer ever?)

Honestly I have no idea, but probably not a big one controlling for applicant quality? I'm kind of genuinely curious why you are so interested in this though.

Considering this person also reported a JS1, I highly doubt it...

A JS1? Must be awkward for the other twin...

From what I hear, no. And if there is a boost, it counts for very little apparently.

Anyway, checking in! (Though I submitted in early Sept, the app went complete after my Sept score was released.)
