Stanford C/O 2020 Applicants (2016-2017 Cycle) Forum

[njh244]

Any chance we can get an update on the number of people in the Facebook group?

Last night I went DL mutha f*ckin S. Good luck to those still striding it out!

UR since 9/9/16 and still not a peep! It seems like there are a lot of applicants in the same boat. Any idea what is taking Stanford so long?

Also, any idea how Stanford is picking those to waitlist?

I'm going with Pretzel's bracket idea. I'd hate to be pitted against y'all, but at least it'd mean there's method to the madness.

In reality, I have no idea -- there's an optimistic side of me that keeps thinking no news is good news, but it could just be that the files are all sorts of out of order at this stage. I assume waitlist is for the almost-admits, but I couldn't begin to guess how the adcomms make specific determinations.

There's a WL data thread floating around that says last cycle it was ~10%.

[notorious_mig]

wait so did we estimate what percentage of applications have been given a decision (ANY decision) at this point

I saw that thread. Is there any specific data on what percentage of their incoming class comes off the waitlist? The WL thread is all LSN, and so doesn't give much of a representative sample.

The LSN data is all we have.

Based on TLS I thought those without a response were in the minority, but when I glanced at LSN on Friday, over half were still at pending.

Has anybody with a February complete date gone DLS?

[curry1]

Based on my conversations with people at Chicago's ASW, a ton of people are still waiting on SLS.

dang it, I thought I was special

When I narrowed down LSN data to only accounts close to my LSAT and GPA, even after removing the ones that have been inactive for a couple of months, theres still 55% pending. Starting to think I'll never hear back.

I think I'm going to get waitlisted by all of HYS, that has to be rarer than getting into all three, right? (desperately trying to console myself)
