On the other hand, I wonder if the reason they haven’t sent out Rs yet is because they still heavily consider us but have limited spots. Maybe they’re trying to gather more concrete numbers on their priority applicants and then after that they move on to us. We’ll have to wait and see, but I’m crossing my fingers for us and anyone else in the same boat!
That’s exactly what it is. Stanford interviews very few applicants relative to other schools it seems like.
October interview and i still have the tab up
I submitted an update in mid november but now i don't have that tab anymore. was checking bc was gonna submit another one but don't have the option (interviewed late sept)
do sept interviews find out in Jan? anyone know based of previous years
Yes and no (lol). They seem to accept people from september-october on the first wave and apparently keep everyone else from those days silent until waitlisted or accepted in following weeks.
It does seem like they're running low on IIs left (maybe just not that many people on SDN reporting). Last year they seemed to extend a few IIs mid December (14/15) and another three in January (5/6/~15th I think). In 2021-2022 they seemed to stop after December. I'd say you still have a shot though even if smaller than before.
Two II were extended a few days ago to some of the SDN users here. So, I'd say there's still a chance!
Im not sure if it's worth going to tbh. Maybe if you're somewhat close to where it takes place since it's in person
Hmm mine is still there…strange 😭
Oh yeah you're not alone. Here, Michigan, brown, and UCSF missed every R and II wave 😂 just tell me something already
+1… though dodged UMich and UCSF R waves until last Friday..
I kept dodging uchicago R waves til I sent them an update letter LOL. But same I haven’t heard from several schools that are rolling. Wonder what they’re thinking
When did u receive it if you don’t mind me asking? Sorry super anxious 😅
Hi I received it 9:30 am PST. Complete Aug 19
Does that mean an R wave is next? 👀😭
Yeah, there's one in January that I remember dodging until the final one in February.
Going off of memory but I think IIs were at least sent on 1/6 and 1/12 last year
Defo more IIs in Jan based on previous years. Not sure if there will be as many though (seems like there was a pretty hefty wave today).
+1
Speaking with no knowledge here so pure speculation, but it could be that they have a standard number (like 68) and the "it varies" is just in case they need to change it for a specific course to prevent too many people from needing remediation? Doubt that's an issue at stanford but I've heard of that happening at other schools.
Definitely think that this is a plausible theory! I wonder if the passing standard is higher for schools such as Stanford in comparison to others, or if it seems to be the same remediation threshold across the board.
Same, nothing here!
I got an II but I ended up applying to KH after receiving it so I don't think it really messed with ny timeline.
