Right there with you! Only three more months of checking my mail until being added to the waitlist. Thankfully then, if I get off the waitlist I'll receive a phone call instead of snail mail.
Who has a strategy for sending Emory updates? I think I'm gonna wait out a few more rounds, then pour my heart out in a single email, updating Emory on all I've done during my gap year and why they should let me in. If that doesn't work, then it wasn't meant to be. Pretty easy to believe I've been forgotten since I interviewed back on 10/4. Since then there have been 100s of new interviewees, so without an update I can't imagine the committee being like "oh yeah, remember this guy? Let's go ahead and let him in now, despite all the amazing applicants that came in last week."
