So I've heard that there are schools which heavily favor and interview applicants with high stats (ex. WashU, Northwestern, Columbia, Icahn, etc.) I was wondering how true this actually is or whether it's over-exaggerated on SDN.

And if it is true, does that mean there might be some red flag on our applications if we don't hear from any of these schools? I know it's still early in the cycle but I was just curious on how it might connect

Patience is a virtue, the need for instant gratification is not. Applications are not processed in chronological order of receipt.

It is a red flag if you don't hear from ANY school at all by Thanksgiving.

@yuumiplayer please post the rest of the schools in the list. Also what is the LM score above which applicants are considered high stat?
