My answer to this is no. I think rejections/ wait even acceptance come at strange intervals. The factors all being specific to discipline, school & some other random subset ? (How's that for scientific?). So my advice is don't sweat it until you know. Which is blatantly easier said than done.
Hi IO hopefuls! I think the majority of accept/reject/wait have been received with a few anomalies. My request to all of you you is please do not hold multiple acceptances at this point. Your top two max and as soon as you know your decision please communicate to your decline school asap . There are those of us in wait list hell- which sucks.
Pleae be cognizant of others (like me) who have severe wait list anxiety & would appreciate final decisions. Thanks much & good luck to all!!
For someone like me - self-dubbed the "wait-list King" - as 4 of my 5 schools have wait listed me. I would appreciate the feedback. My plea to all at this point is please do not hold more than two offers. Those of us in wait list hell would so appreciate it
