Someone GOT CALLED half an hour ago.
I know them from the applyingToCollege reddit!!!
AHh!!! Thats so exciting!!! Have you heard from anyone else? @grundeis
no
@grundeis congrats to them!! I’m assuming east coast?
yes New York. Does that mean that they are done calling ppl?
Cuz that was at like 1 PM pacific
I’m not sure, because for sts 2013 someone on the east coast got a call around 5:15pm
i dont think theyre done, because central time zones are still left
wait so do they call by TIME ZONE? So basically do they call people at 4 pm in each time zone???
ive a feeling yeah, ranging from the 4-5pm period @grundeis
wait why would they call ppl by time zone when they can just call ppl all at once at 4 PM eastern time? Like what makes you think it’s by time zone. Did you hear someone say what time they got the call?
well a few years ago i know that all the people in the central time zone got the call from around the same time around 4-5pm, and youre saying that someone from new york got the call around right now which is 5ish eastern time period, so im assuming theyre going by timezone? Since some people may be at school or something? Just a pattern ive noticed, Not completely 100% sure @grundeis
oh yeah ok that makes me still have hope.
So each time zone is receiving calls 4-5 PM yes that seems the most logical :))
I feel hopeless holding out to the hope 
*on
Congrats to everyone who got the call!
has everyone gotten called already? (west coasters?)
Nope west coast should be in a few hours from what everyone said here.
No west coast should be 4-5 PM our time.
1-2 more hours!!
Does anyone have any info HOW they pick the top 40 out of the 300?
What are the most important factors? (Race is clearly not one of them :)))
still clinging onto a teeny tiny bit of hope
