waiting listed by Notre Dame

一般WAITLISTED的人有25-40%的机会被录取，如果不是顶级学校的话被录取可能性更大，因为好多人被更好的学校吸引掉了。

至于能做什么，有人说应该反复接触AD， 有人说干等，it really depends.

请问楼主是什么时候申请的？考试成绩如何？工作背景？

谢谢

我的背影很一般, 普通大学, GPA 不好. G 720, T 650. TWE 4.0.

工作二年半, 都是制造业的小公司. 从工程师到品保主管.

申请是在05年12月中旬.

与yeisu同问。~~~

If I were you, I would choose to wait for a while and see if other schools I have applied could give me more chance.

Writing to the admission office and bragging how excellent you are will make yourself a pest ....  It can easily become sort of you are trying to enfluence the decisions of the admission officers.  It can be interpreted as you think the initial decision made by the admission officers is incorrect based on the information in your application materials. 

Well, I know on this website, many do encourage you to remind the admission office of your existence and how excellent you are.  What I would suggest is you simply wait at the time being.  If they really think you're a very strong applicant, they will contact you when there is a vacancy.  Trust they would process your application fairly.  But you should write to them, say, two or three weeks later, to tell them you're still interested in this school and show some committment to them.  That would make more sense.

Be careful not to be a pest...
