<p>FYI - I found 21 people who posted in this forum about receiving the mail requesting mid-year grades over the past 4 admissions cycles (2008-2011). Of those, 5 later posted that they were admitted (24%). The rest either posted that they were rejected or did not post their admission decision. I realize that this is a very small sample, but receiving the letter does not seem to have been an indicator of either a more likely admission or more likely rejection, since 24% is near the standard admission rate over the past 4 cycles.</p>
<p>This concurs with what some of the long time posters have stated.</p>
