Krug - We have experienced very little problems with the MIT website but I think some of that has to do with when the materials were sent. D put in requests for recs and transcripts in October and submitted application part 1 early november and part 2 early december. I think that the sheer volume of materials sent in at regular decision time causes the headaches you are experiencing.

D only had a complaint about one school who managed to lose a rec, despite how early they were submitted, and it was not MIT.
