Don't give up hope! There was also a wave of rejections around feb 28 (if i remember correctly) and you weren't included in that!
That was a wave auto-rejection. Which fantasy should by my means be included in it.
But still don't give up hope. You never know. They probably just want to have a better picture of their class before making decisions on us.

I"m going to speculate Wave 4 is on Thursday, March 16th beginning at 10:30 AM. Wave 5 will be Friday, March 31st around 2:30. Evidence: absolutely none.
Any H adcoms, my birthday is March 16th :wink: but you knew that already. Birthdays get pretty boring past 21, but you could change that....

This is the most inspirational thing I've read in weeks. I'm going to use it to convince myself that a large number of acceptances coming = great chances for me, so no need to stress.
That was very inspirational for me too
I like this sort of thinking.

Last JS2 wave seemed to include those who interviewed the first week of Feb. If the next wave is similar and comes on 3/16, then we should expect interviewees from 2/6 through 3/10 to be included.

I was not aware of that. Did it include anyone who had interviewed earlier than that?

Yes I should clarify it by saying "those who interviewed up through the first week of Feb."

I'd say you're probably still fine. The majority of that wave were people who had interviewed a while ago, there were a few people who interviewed first week of Feb, but I would anyone is still on the table, especially if your interviewed feb

Just from following this thread. I interviewed the second week of Feb so was paying particular attention to the dates in the last wave. If you go back to around page 115 you see people confirm this. Could be something good to have in the OP.

One should be able to make predictions about impending js1 waves by checking if new js1 slots are opening for the coming days. Anyone able to check that?

There aren't any open slots at the moment from what I see.

I see nothing, but I think they just did interviews today.

Nothing is worse than admissions for a reverse splitter.

Reverse splitter here, and I think scholly is worse, esp because I'm not about to be getting any full-tuitions. But I think it depends on your goals--if you want HYS more than life itself, finaid doesn't matter because you assume sticker and you'll go regardless, so admissions is worse. If you're debt-averse, now we're getting into scholly territory where one school needs a commitment by mid-April and the other is saying you might not even get a package until early April. It's way more stressful, I think, and with the reverse-splitterness there's no predicting.

Sorry for the essay, definitely stressing about this. :|
