No idea but since asw is March 16-18 I think we should hear one way or another before that with enough time to reasonably make travel plans.Monday wrote: I appear to be also FR. (Is there a date for the next FR results like there was for this previous one?)

FWIW I did not write anything Berkeley specific either and my PS was two pages long. I have also never been to California. Above both 75th.Rigo wrote:And then there's me who did nothing Berkeley specific yet really wants to go to Berkeley, so f'in lol at my stupid ass.
(I'm not YP territory though)
And I was accepted within a month. So you never know.

So is FR generally seen as positive, or a negative? Or no correlation to admits/WL's?

For people that received a decision today .. how long was your wait between FR and decision?

Lots of movement on status checkers today and I thought, "probably nothing on mine, I finally went UR last Monday." I was wrong. FR as of today. Anxiety levels increased. Maybe they were motivated because Trump's threat to defund Berkeley made them think, "well shit, let's get us some more lawyers who will represent us, now."
