I think most of us have heard the "urban legend" that SUNY Downstate reviews secondary's and applications in general in a 'random' order...

Is that true? Does anyone know? I have been complete for 3 months now with no word - and this is one of my TOP choices - so I guess I'm hoping it IS true, although it seems kind of implausible...

Random review would basically nullify the point of applying early as well as being competitive with numbers right? I mean this school has rolling admissions so the earlier your interview the higher your probability of being accepted so it doesn't really stand to reason they would review applications randomly does it?

Any one with experience and knowledge of SUNY Downstate's process - I would verily appreciate your input, feedback or experience with this school.

Thanks!!
 
I don't think they do random. My friends have all received II's according to their complete dates. Have you tried emailing them? They response very quickly. Very nice admissions office.
