It might be in here somewhere, but:

Can somebody please explain what JS1 and JS2 are abbreviations for??

I can't quite figure it out. Thx! :mrgreen:

For someone who ultimately gets accepted, what's the average wait time between JS1 and acceptance?

Are you saying that you're expecting rejections today or that you got rejected?

I had better not be on edge like this every day for the next three months... I hope we see some action soon, whatever the outcome is.

I'm going to start limiting myself to 1 check and 10 minutes/ 2 posts of TSL daily due to all the stress.

Unless of course there's a major change in my statuses, in which I'll relapse like crazy.

JS2 went out on 12/24. In terms of Js1 to Js2, I think the latest JS1 covered was 12/18, but only one or so. The next wave will probably include a variety of Dec js1 dates

On an unrelated note, how did everyone research "Why Harvard?" for the JS1? Is there a good resource, or should I just stick to their web page?

I just combed their website for a couple hours and really dug into the pages surrounding my specific focus area. That said, they never asked "Why Harvard," so I had to fold some of the "why" factors into my questions at the end :|
