I applied to Utah, Rutgers, USC, CU Boulder, CMU, CalTech and Dynamical Neuroscience at UCSB. The one poster might have the intention to spread rumour (MIT posters last week were accusing some people of this too.) since it is uncommon to get a result on a Sunday, or it could be a genuine result reported late. I hope we have the results soon. I am travelling this week and I hope that I have the results before then, otherwise it would be on my mind. Good luck to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
