Right there with you! I take heart in the 13-14 spreadsheets though. Almost everybody with a JS1 in mid January heard back the first Monday of February! There's still some hope...right?
Oof. My heart is all aflutter now. :oops:

2013-14 cycle was also about a month ahead of this cycle. We're much more in line with last year, when first acceptances for January JS1s didn't come until March. Sorry to rain on your parade...

Based on the spreadsheet for last year, it looks like there were some January JS1s that were accepted in early February, though not as many as the year before. But I appreciate the much-needed reality check.

I've got an idea. Everyone reply to ding posts in this thread with "His name was Robert Paulson."

As waiters we have no name. But in death. Only in death will we have our own names since only in death are we no longer part of the effort. In death we become heroes.

Wait guys, I think I might be a doubter. The app due date has been 2/1 for the researchable past. All of the other big first monday waves have fallen after this deadline. Will the impending JS2 flood be held back by adcoms answering the questions/hand holding late applicants?? NOOOOOO

More like a panicky roller coaster lift hill before the actual thrill start. We know we're close to the top; we just don't know when the drop is gonna be.

For everyone's sake, I hope HLS takes the same view of annoying last-minute app procrastinators that SLS does 8)

Forgive what is likely a repetitive question: I see in the OP some interview questions from last year. I did a cursory search of the thread using the search tool and found no 2015-2016 interview question list (as exists in the UChi thread and elsewhere). Is this accurate? Did interviewees still find the questions listed in the OP applicable/useful in terms of preparation?

I'm in the library right now and checked my phone to find I had voicemail... sprinted outside to see what it was (can't see missed calls without service) only to have a message from a candidate for local office. Guess I know who I'm not voting for now.

I'm so sorry for creating so much false hope.
