大家勿急,随缘~ 转贴一个adcom的FF同学在s2s上比较官方的解释: The biggest variable is how long it takes for an individual application to go through the process. All applications are read in full at least twice, and there are way more applications than can be read in a single week. So your application may go straight out to be read, or it may sit aroud the office for a week or two until readers pick up the next batch. You may get a fast reader or a slow reader. Your file may get handed straight off to another reader, or it might sit around the office for a week or two before it goes off to be read again. Basically all this adds up to a lot of variability in how long it takes for an application to go through the process, for reasons that have nothing to do with applicaion quality. Basically, adcom know that they need to get through X applications per week to meet the interview invitation release deadlines, and focus on giving each application the attention they all deserve. Pausing and waiting for application no. 1437 to become available because it is next in sequential order would actually slow things down, and take away time from actually evaluating the content of the applications. Furthermore, adcom like to deliberately mix things up, so that when applications are receiving a 2nd read, all of that batch will not have been reviewed by the same 1st reviewer. This may sound like mayhem, but as above, adcom are focussed on flow rate and keeping up the flow of applications to readers without overburdening them, rather than maintaining strict sequential order. And the whereabouts of applications is tracked at all times. PS:FF已经澄清1437什么也说明不了: | No, I was just making the point that applications are NOT sequentially numbered and processed. 1437 is a completely random number I made up, an has abolsutely NO relationship to anything. Wharton does not publish the breakdown of numbers by rounds. FF |
