I had my JS1 this week. I didn't catch my interviewer's name and the Harvard site doesn't have pictures of the staff. So I'll just send an edible arrangement to all the staff. I tried stalking on LinkedIn but some have no pictures :/

The questions are all very much based on your application except for the why law or why Harvard questions.

I would not do this.

+1 its almost a bribe. And even if it isnt it is still trying way to HARD. Would look pathetic in my opnion

pls do this. it'll open up more spaces for schmucks like me to get in

LOL +1.I was gonna encourage him/her to do it.

Omg you guys. ood is joking. It was a great joke though and introduced some sheer levity in my day.

Hahaha same I was wondering if everyone's humor receptors were broken

Though I do love an edible arrangement...

Just an FYI - at the end of my interview they said it would be a few weeks until a decision. I interviewed 1/23, so I would be very surprised to see a wave sooner than Valentine's Day.

Hi -- anyone already admitted know when the admitted students weekends are?

I mean just because it could take a few weeks until YOU get a decision doesn't mean it won't be less than a few weeks for people who had interviewed earlier than you.

I meant the syntactical deconstruction, not holding out hope.

In hindsight, should have quoted only the part predicting a wave post 2/14. I agree, syntactical deconstruction is not yet appropriate.

+1, I am not mentally ready for that sort of disappointment yet.

If I had done that, I wouldn't have had the pleasure of engaging in this lovely conversation with you.

So, ignoring the sassiness that was that successive string of posts, if we look at how waves have come historically, then a few weeks post-interview would coincide with a late February wave. Since this year everything looks to have been shifted back some and there was only one 2-day wave in February, I'd say it's a pretty well-reasoned assumption on my part. (where is a *hairtoss* emoji when you need it)

Did you have a JS1, or just denied before interview? (sorry if it's too emotional to respond)

Sorry to hear that. When did you apply? And when did they email you? Harvard was always a super reach so I'm expecting a ding. This wait has been killing and I just need to know already.

I replied back in November. I only applied because they reached out to me with a fee waiver and then had BLSA email me as well. I even talked to a BLSA member on the phone. They emailed me right now and said to check my update on the status checker. When I clicked it, there was a letter.
