<p>w8 do you need to fly down there?</p>
<p>Ohhhh nvm for camp time, my bad</p>
<p>What’s the probability of getting into camp once you get the letter?
I got one this morning.</p>
<p>Also, sincere congratulations to @papermargins </p>
<p>lol I live an hour away from Purdue.</p>
<p>And also, I think I probably misread the letter. When they say composite score, they’re probably referring to the composite of parts A, B, and C. :(</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone who has received a letter so far!</p>
<p>SUMMARY POST:
The current questions: (I guess i’ll revise to include answers once conclusive ones come in)</p>
<p>Do they send all the emails/phone calls at once (aka, if you didn’t get anything yet, are you screwed?)
– no answer yet</p>
<p>When will all emails/phone calls be done?
– no answer yet; some say the weekend (Wednesday brings conclusive results anyway)</p>
<p>Are open exam scores factored into the decision?
– apparently not.</p>
<p>If you receive an email/phone call, what’s the chance that you actually make camp?
– no conclusive answer</p>
<p>How many people get emails/phone calls, anyway?
– anywhere from 30 to 40; more than 20, at any rate</p>
<p>nah I take it back. It’s not factored in</p>
<p>receiving the letter and not getting into camp would be the most painful thing ever…</p>
<p>Well, April 14 is the deadline for returning the email, and April 16 is when they release the scores.
So all we know is that the emails are going to be sent before April 14</p>
<p>OK, so someone told me that they were 1.5 away from the cutoff last year and didn’t receive a letter. Did anyone here (like Bean) make finals last year AND receive a letter? Because if letters were sent out last year, it’s very possible that the candidate pool may be even smaller than top 30… Perhaps top 20 and ties?
Or could a past finalist tell us if they send out both letters and phone calls</p>
<p>I was thinking maybe they send it out to the top 20 at first? And then, if someone can’t go, they send additional emails to the new open spots. This way, only people who are above the cutoff would get emails.</p>
<p>I would hope so</p>
<p>but lol, that would mean we have a third of the finalists right here on the forum</p>
<p>As a finalist last year, I don’t know of anyone who received email and didn’t get in. Hopefully, it’ll work again this year for me. </p>
<p>wow, so basically, if you received that email, you’re in?</p>
<p>Not making any promises, but probably. </p>
<p>Congrats to you all for receiving the letters!!</p>
<p>Thanks! I’m the one botherme was talking about, so after missing it by 1.5 last year, missing after getting a letter would be like pouring salt in the wound… It’s a long time until wednesday…</p>

Well, I was 3.34 points away from cutoff last year, and I didn’t receive a letter. So, I’m (almost) in the same boat as you</p>
<p>Pretty sure only the top 20 get it. CCongrats to everyone who got one</p>
<p>on an unrelated note, how will this affect my chances at RSI next year?</p>
