I was a long waiter but my numbers weren't there. My softs and URM status are likely what kept me in semi-contention.

Good luck to the rest of you though. I know many of you have been pissing excellence throughout the course of your lives but I hope you truly appreciate the incredible accomplishment of a HLS acceptance.

See you guys in court :wink:

I went complete in mid-November and have still not heard anything .. my numbers are well below both medians, but I'm still trying to remain positive :)

Anyone else in a similar boat with this long of a wait with no mention of an interview yet? Is it possible to be waitlisted and then be offered a JS1?

Do you mind telling us your stats, when you submitted, and if you got a JS1? And did you just receive the email?

Do we think JS will go two Sundays in a row?

No. I figure that they made those calls because they were there for ASW.

JS actually explicitly told me that.

.. I had an actual conversation with JS. Over wine. And she is super chill. Still reeling.
