    @Jessica Booker What are firm requirements re GDL grades? Do they expect a 'Distinction'/'Merit' (Commendation)', or are they willing to look at someone with 2 'Passes'?

    Most of the time they don't give any indication of when we should get an update :rolleyes: which makes the whole emailing deal almost worse than the wait ahahah

    Question which probably @Jessica Booker has the best answer to: what is the etiquette on contacting GR re the stage of your app? For a few applications I have been waiting for quite a long time, such as Latham (applied mid November) and Weil (did the VI 4 weeks ago). Don't want to seem pushy...

    I'm sure they haven't! Maybe try sending them an email? I have a similar thing with Weil: completed the VI 3 weeks ago and still haven't heard anything back even though they have been giving out AC s). The wait is so frustrating but we just gotta be patient I guess

    did the Weil VI the 4th of January and still haven't heard back, which is probs bad news tbh. Anyone have any advice on whether I should email them or should just leave it and wait?
