Can't base it off of "last week" or anything like that. It varies by person, and isn't like a "wave" of admissions.

It has seemed like the emails themselves went out in waves

Even if that is the case, adcomm likely hasn't been given a deadline of when to send out emails, indicated by individuals receiving them at all hours of the day (night, morning, holidays, etc). So even if my assertion is incorrect re:waves, just because last week someone got an email around 2-3, doesn't mean it's a reliable baseline for today.

You're not wrong, and I've been in this sub preaching the same skepticism of "trends". I was just saying that there seemed to be a trend, which I found odd

I applied today via PT. Then I went to the UVA thread and saw that they were talking about Duke really wanting a "Why Duke" essay and now I'm concerned that I didn't write one :'(

I'm at both medians pretty much, GPA is like .0x under.

I applied via PT yesterday and at 4am got the status checker, but it doesn't say anything about PT...is there a separate email?

Weird, are you sure you're counting from the day you went complete? Do they give you the specific date? Not trying to second guess, I just don't know

Yeah I'm just assuming they got behind on reviewing apps, don't think it's got anything to do with us specifically.
