And let me know guys if anyone of you wants to lead the Smith forum. It will be hard for me to visit this forum frequently and keep track of updates. It's therefore best to have a current applicant on the driving seat of the forum. Please reach out whoever is interested.

Thank you! Best of luck to you as well. Wonder if they haven't started sending out domestic invites, as I see you are in India.

Just received my invite, just in case anyone in the US is wondering about theirs for R1!

Interesting! I was checking its movement in US News rankings; Surprisingly, it has managed to stay within the top 40-50 range over the last 12 years: Never made any remarkable progress but not a huge fall either.

2008 ------> 2020
