My Essays were excellent. I’m 100% sure my essays are what got me in.

I don’t think you have too much to worry about in regards to being over 8 weeks, I really doubt they’d just leave someone hanging. I’m assuming some people who submitted a decent amount of time before the deadline probably waited a bit longer too since decisions only started consistently coming out towards the beginning of Feb.
This is probably a dumb question but will they release decisions over the weekend? Sorry just really anxious!!!
it is driving me nuts that I don’t know yet i had all my stuff in by the deadline and its almost the end of march yo. Im sure not the only one going insane
Nope you are not the only one. My checklist was complete on January 23rd and I still haven’t heard back from them either.
We are at the homestretch guys, keep your heads high heading into the end of March.

Essays were the determining factor sure.
To anyone who is afraid of the high stats of other applicants and does not think they have a chance of top tier schools, please just apply. I am so glad I never gave up.
Accepted!!
