Will they be offering more 120ks to those accepted in 2nd wave? We don't know yet.

Out of curiosity (and boredom), are there any tangible differences between getting a decision from 1st read as compared to 2nd read? Does making it to 2nd read mean anything in particular (such as a greater chance of making the WL) or is it standard procedure?

Everyone goes through three reads. It's right below the button you click to get to the status tracker.

Edit: after re-reading the exact spot I sent you to, I want to correct myself. Not everyone goes to the second read but, according to the verbiage, 2nd read doesn't not signal positive or negative.

Oh, when can we expect to receive the "we got your attempt to apply for the Rothman scholarship but you're not good enough" letter? I'm assuming the 4 finalist have already been chosen so are we just gonna get the cold shoulder for those who didn't get that far?

it will be known in the next two days.

i'm hoping a TLSer gets an invite so they can post about it and weI can all stop obsessing.


4 will be sent out. This is some golden ticket-type drama. WHO WILL BE SELECTED!?

Clearly I was just admitted today only so that they could turn around and offer me the Rothman tomorrow. It all makes sense now.
