Hey guys
Anyone else waiting for Maryland? Given that some people were already accepted, should I be expecting a rejection? -
Hey guys, I recently discovered this forum so if my questions were already answered in the past, I am sorry.
I was wandering what are the chances for those in the wait list? People are really accepted after suffering in this list or it's a long shot? I am in the wait list of Duke, my dream department, and I don't know if I should keep my hopes up.
Related to that question, what do you guys think about trying again next year? I was approved by two programs that are ok, but for some reason I am not very excited about them. I was thinking in sending pretty much the same material but really increase my GRE scores (currently 158V and 159Q). I guess the GRE is the main reason why I wasn't accepted by Duke, and probably the reason why I will not be accepted by Yale, MIT and Northwestern (about those three I haven't received any notice yet).
Thanks and sorry for the long text, I am desperate by now.

A couple of people here have commented that they already had their admitted student visit (or is very soon, can't remember exactly when it is/was). I doubt they would do that without sending out all their acceptances.
Yes, I guess it makes sense. That's sad, why they haven't rejected everyone else then? It's just mean.

Northwestern is definitely done. Stanford is probably done.
Hey Comparativist, Why are you so sure that Northwestern is definitely done? I am still waiting an answer from them.

Does anyone heard from the University of Maryland? My status finally changed to 'Under Graduate School Review', but besides that everything is unchanged.
