<p>Do they wait until after mid-year reports arrive, do you think?</p>
<p>no...there are so many apps that they definitely begin reading as soon as they get them (in a systematic way, of course)</p>
<p>as they add stuff to your file...there will be a final review, but generally they get a pretty good sense of what they're looking at, in terms of the applicant, in the first look (and several admissions staffers will take a first look)</p>
<p>oh i see....haha, i did think it was going to be a nasty rush if they waited for all the mid-year reports to come in...</p>
