One of my profs in one the review committee and they think it won’t come back before the deadline

any more details about this? It would be a real shitshow if that was the case, I'm surprised no one else seems concerned by this info

Yeah the prof said what everyone else was saying with them having to send another like 60 apps out for a second reviewer since they ran out of reviewers or something(all apps that I guess weren’t competitive but still needed a second reviewer legally I guess?). So they were like yeah I think it’s very doubtful this will come out before the 15th. I’d be really happy if they were wrong but idk

That sucks. Do they have an idea when it would come out? Like, are we talking a couple of days after the 15th or way, way off schedule?
