  1. Isn't this the definition of paranoia. While it would be a hard predicament for me to say that I'm indeed affected by this delay in results....but I guess we can't really do anything about it, right?
  2. Same for me, "Withdraw" button is still available. I wonder how long it will take now.... (I wonder about the mental equilibrium of the student when they start to notice such minute things, meaning things are really going haywire inside brain.). I have examinations from next week, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to mess them up, thinking about result. The problem here is that unlike some Scandinavian universities, ETH doesn't declare the result in a batch, but rather individually. I guess it has something to do with the order of received applications ? Nevertheless, I'm betting big time on ETH, more so after I rejected job offers at some of the aces of biotechnology industry, and didn't even apply for others (I kind of feel little bit stupid now, but oh well). The funny thing is that from the first day of my Bachelor's, I was kind of determined to study at ETH, and if I get rejected now.....guess it's nothing but bad luck (because I think not many at bachelor's level would be proficient in comparative genomics and HPCtogether xD ). The problem with German universities is that they still require German in some of the courses, specially in my case since no single university provides the complete curriculum in one place; most of the programs in Computational Biology are usually joint programs, and the local participating university which usually teaches courses related to Biology...#surprise surprise#...teaches them in German. Same problem exists with Japan and their "foreigner" specific Frontier programs are so complicated that it is hard to understand what the actual programme is all about.
  3. You have nearly 15 days to reply to your admission offer. I guess it is quite justifiable since ETH expects it be first choice IF a person is applying for admission there. I'm still waiting for my result (CBB, Master's in Computational Biology and Bioinformatics), and honestly, the wait is taking its toll on my day to day working, whereby I have messed up many things just because my mind was (rather is) occupied with result. As for my profile, it doesn't make much sense to post it here since the nature of this particular program is quite different than others. And it doesn't help much by seeing the result page on gradcafe too, as there is no information posted about 2015 results, but a rough ballpark from 2014 means that I should ideally get my result this week.
