Hey bsd!

I received the same notice that LBS is still considering my application and I will get a decision in the next two days. At the moment better than a DING, but still worse than waitlisted.

Any suggestions?!? Anyone been in the same situation?

Good luck to all waitlisted and sorry to hear about the DINGS!

Cheers

I suspect they just haven't gotten around discussing our applications, the results tomorrow could well be a ding.

...and I hope that we survived the first DING round. I cannot imagine that they dinged other high profile applicants without looking at our applications? So whoever knows, we will hopefully find out more tomorrow!

I've heard rumours that some people will only get their admit decisions today or on Friday, together with the offer of a financial award. I don't know how far true that is.

Sorry for those who got dinged and good luck to you guys that are still waiting.

ok, so it looks like we've got 3 waitlists here. anyone have any idea what the odds are of moving off that list? I know it's a long shot, but even the slightest glimmer of hope is still something.
