another 11/22 -> 3/14 checking in.

sanguar - i saw on your profile that you've been out of undergrad for a few years. i've been out for 10+. i wonder if they are reviewing non-trads in groups...or just a coincidence?

Not sure. That would be interesting though. Not sure what, if anything, to infer from it if it's true. But interesting nonetheless.

Im only one year out so not sure if the theory holds up.

Hi guys! first time poster here =)

I went UR 2/21-> 3/14. Duke is my first choice and a bit of a reach (169/3.6/2 yrs work experience).

From the looks of the forum it looks like Duke notifies you by e-mail. Does your status checker update to DR before this? or just a new UR date??

The way it usually works is on the day you'll get the decision email, your status checker should show something along the lines of "decision reached - wait for email," followed by an email with the decision a few hours later.

All these updates after some weekend acceptances has the makings of a WL bloodbath...hoping I'm wrong.

oh well, i guess there's no rhyme or reason to be found in the process, just madness.

sorry, haven't really been keeping up with this thread but:

how many under reviews does one typically get prior to a decision?

I really hope you guys get a decision soon, too! But I just thought I'd point out that most applicants aren't straight from undergrad, so maybe we don't want to jump to conclusions?

I was taking us being 1 yr out as disproving any association (the first two were 10 yrs out) between our applications.
