Is there a spreadsheet anywhere with submit/complete/JS dates for the current cycle? It would be great to have all that data in one place.

Somewhere in this thread there was a sent vs. JS1 and a JS1 vs. JS2, but I'm not sure if those were for the current cycle... you should totally go through all 167 pages of the thread and make one for our edification though

It's for last cycle and it's in the OP.

+1. You could've at least posted your approximate stats. TLS isn't your bragging board.

Exciting movement today! Congrats you guys!

[phelps84]

Not gonna lie, I'm starting to get peeved by people who presumably use this place as a resource and then dont put their stats up or link to them in their profile. Then to make matters worse they come into this thread or one of the school waiting threads and say "Accepted" or "In". At that point its nothing but a one way celebratory masturbation. No paying it forward or anything just another way of saying "I'm great, I'm in, I'm so happy, now congratulate me".

And before I hear any anonymity complains, that's just another way of saying, hey you suckers put your numbers up, but I'm smarter than that, so I'll just exploit your sense of altruism or responsibility or whatever motivates the rest of us to put our numbers up.

If you use this place as resource help others by giving your stats, if you're to special to do that, dont add insult to injury by sharing your success. Go find another napkin.

Edit: at some point I'll edit that thing for grammar. But not today. Not while on a phone.

In hkgoalie's defense, he/she is clearly using LSN (most recent "Accepted" on the Harvard applicants page).

Sorry, I didn't know the protocol - I was approximately 177 and 3.9 with about 3 years of experience at a consulting firm. Also, applying to both HBS and HLS to try to do the joint program. Haven't heard anything on the HBS front, was a round 2 application.

You came back and corrected so it's all good. Also 177 3.9 applying to both schools with that work experience is maybe the closest thing to an autoadmit there is at HLS.

[spyke123]

congrats to new admits!!

looks like Ive been passed over (js1 on 24th)

[chiach1]

hey everyone, i've been complete since mid nov and have not heard anything from HLS. What type of decision should those in my situation be expecting? Is it better to be in the held category or in my shoes?
thanks

There should be a party on here for us folks who've had the JS1 and are waiting. My wait is stretching into a good month nearly. I might be headed to Princeton. And now that JS2s have come out two days in a row, I suspect each day I'll be awaiting some kind of news.

[ManOfTheMinute]

JS2!

171 3.8x

never thought it would be possible! softs DO matter!

JS1 1/22

Lets hope so... But just wait, people with sub-par numbers (like me) who get dinged will claim HLS refuses to look past the numbers!

Fair criticism. Then again, take away the self-congratulating and the TLS population would be cut in half instantly. Take away the self-loathing ... there goes the other half.

If your numbers are sub-par, mine are somewhere between subterranean and crocodile piss. I won't argue that optimism is useful ... but in your case, it's warranted.

I haven't waited nearly as long as you but I think we might be one of the few remaining without JS2 =/

this may have been addressed at some point in this topic, but does Harvard send out denials regularly? If I've heard nothing since going complete in mid december, have I missed waves of denials, or is there a date at which they tend to let people know they've been denied?

Waves, but I haven't heard of anyone being denied from December yet.

On the soapbox shouting for some zero sum driven principle to propel all interaction while overlooking the most salient reason why people post here in the first place: community.
