Last year's round 2 followed a somewhat similar pattern, though the number of days between the second wave and the third wave of invites was 12. Also, sometimes they released the decision at odd times (e.g. ~8PM on a Friday night).
These schools need to adopt both standard recommendation forms (to make it easier for our rec. writers who have a ton of more important stuff to do) and a standard set of notification procedures. The waves of interview invites are especially painful.
Agree. Has anyone even received an "application received" confirmation from Yale? I applied through Consortium...so maybe that has something to do with it.
