What's the status of Cornell PhD? No rejection yet but I saw someone got one on results... is it pretty unlikely at this point?

Are they sending out any more emails? Or is this it.

Can anyone comment on that? I know it doesn't matter at this point but I'm just curious.

Also my gpa is actually 3.48, not quite 3.5... and I have put down 3.48 on my apps. This might be an absurd question, but I know 3.5 is sort of the target minimum gpa for competitive programs so is that going to be an issue?

Considering applying to about 10-15 programs ranked in the top 20. GPA is low and no publications yet, is that going to hurt me too much to get in anywhere?
