<p>It all could be irrelevant, but it makes you wonder why some universities have removed the check application status option from their admissions website. Perhaps they don't want smart applicants figuring anything out. Ok, don't shoot me. Just a thought.</p>

<p>Shobhit: Don't worry man...they take like 50 PLME RD (correct me if I'm wrong), so you'll be fine</p>
<p>thanx for those encouraging words cocoapunk, but then again, like 2000 ppl apply RD so it's just pure luck! ;)</p>
