Ding via email this morning. Submitted 1/11, Complete 2/3, UR 1/26. Good luck to the rest of you! I still have hope for the remaining folks who haven't received JR1's!

There's no light at the end of this tunnel.

Probably not, but for those who maintain hope--when did the first joint-JR1/JR2s come out last year?

This is relevant to my interests.

Yeah that´s what I read and my freakout was probably not necessary. Occasionally I get super neurotic

I don't even know why they've hung onto my file for this long. I'm below both medians.

Also, what is this joint JR1/J2 of which you speak?

When it gets really late, some times you get JR2 at the conclusion of the JR1 call, or shortly after (like same day).

This is a mean April Fools joke in the making.

Hey can anyone tell me what shows up on the caller ID when you get a JR one? And what time (ish) do people usually get calls (or is it any time during business hours)?
Also if you just get ding'd w/o a JR does it come via e-mail?

Well you get an e-mail letting you know that he wants to set-up a time to have the JR1 interview. So you know when he is going to call.

JR emails you first to let you know if you get a JR1. He gives you a time window during which he calls. I believe it is the 617 area code, although I could be wrong. I haven't gotten one.

Yes, the ding and holds (and probably WL eventually) come via email.

Just kidding!

Does no one know when he started doing that last year?

Confused7 · Post by **Confused7** » Thu Mar 24, 2011 1:58 pm

I checked this out on the Harvard 2010 thread a few weeks ago, but I think joint JR1 + JR2 started after April? I thought they were mostly for people who had initially been put on the waitlist.

haha, sorry screen was having trouble refreshing, didn't realize more posts had happened. Either way, +1 for the statement. Does that put me at an even 0? That seems to be HLS's current judgment as well.

Does anyone know what the average time is between a UR date and hearing any response is? Also is it normal to have a march UR date, seems super late to me (3/09/11)?

There's no average time between a UR date and hearing a response, it depends on too many factors. With a March UR date, expect to hear by the end of April, since I think that's when they try and get all their decisions sent out. Yes, it is normal to have a march UR date if you applied late.

Harvard Navel Gazing Office.

But they should not forget what Nietzsche said: "If you gaze long into the navel, navel also gazes into you."
