my percentile was the same (and i got an award). I assume the top 7% would all have gotten 1st round awards and below 79% were probably rejected in the 1st round... liatris, for me, the percentile was listed on the first page i see when i log in to read my reviewer comments.

I agree. I won with VG/VG, VG/VG, and VG/E, although all the reviewers said I had an interesting and relevant project, a strong background, and strong broader impacts. (my E reviewer called my personal statement "heart warming" haha) Then again, I'm also geosciences, and we did get more new awards than other disciplines.

Yeah, i think geosciences got a good number of new ones, too

hey, congrats to all you who got hm. that's still pretty good in my book (i would have been ok with that, although I'm just a senior undergrad, so I would have had more chances to reapply). I think some disciplines just get funded more easily than others sometimes. (e.g. I'm in geology, but I'm doing a project that oil companies don't care about, unlike a lot of other work that's being done) I wish you all the best of luck in finding other funding opportunities.

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS I GOT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm pretty sure this is the url for the award spreadsheet https://www.fastlane-beta.nsf.gov/grfp/AwardeeList.do?method=loadAwardeeList but it, like the rest of the beta site, is currently purple and useless

this waiting process is actually helping me focus on writing my thesis: check forum and fastlane, go back to thesis and write paragraph. repeat. i have to agree though, that it really feels like tonight could be the night

they probably took it down to lull us into a false sense of disappointment so we'd resign to go to bed early and not stay up and check our emails so that they could delay the wave of responses and questions when they stealthily release them later tonight. (hope springs eternal...) luckily, i'm on the west coast, so it's only 9...

nothing here either... it's always questionable when someone with so few posts says something like that...

does anyone remember approximately what time (pacific) the emails started going out/results were available last time? i'd like to get some work done before starting to freak out if tonight's the night...

actually, they almost always do their maintenance on sundays

as those of us who've been here for a long time already know, scheduled maintenance doesn't usually correlate with any changes on the website or announcements. plus, i doubt they'd send emails out on a sunday morning...

.

speak of the devil... I just got an email rejecting me... whatever dudes, Stanford is where I wanted to go anyways

Nothing from Berkeley for me either... Where is everyone going next fall?
