Are "likely letters" ethical?

Likely letters are great for those who get them…
For those who don’t, it’s just another reminder that your college application is still being discussed… hence, where the anxiety comes from!

I don’t expect to get a likely letter from any of the schools I applied to, but it’s just a bit disheartening when others hear from your favourite schools and you’re still left hanging :’)
