They do. My tenth day was a Sunday and they sent me my decision after 9 pm on the last day. Really came down to the wire, I guess

why not write one? depending on your numbers, you run a higher risk of YP if you don't write one

I did not and I was accepted. I didn't sweat it, if you don't want to you will probably be fine.

Havent seen much YP this cycle yet for Duke, but a lot of people got WL'ed from PT for not writing a why duke in last year's applicant thread. literally took an hour to write so just do it

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
