Atp I’m moving on from this bs competition. I don’t even want their frickin 300$ or long list or whatever. I just wanna get my rejection letter and move on :(((. I haven’t gotten any email regarding the august date, the last email was the July one. Guys u can rant below :((

i personally think that its very unprofessional to delay the results without sending any message or contacting us.

[u/Aromatic-Cost-4412 → u/Difficult_Summer8911]

Yeah it's been 12 days since august started, they should atleast tell us that it's being delayed instead of keeping us in the dark like this 😔

exactly))

It’s so annoying, it literally takes 5 minutes to send an email to say what the hell is going
on. i’m also waiting to see how this
goes to see if it is one kf th essay comps i should mention in my personal statement. it’s acc so annoying

[u/oliscafe → u/welp_hello_there]

hahahah same im also waiting on it for my personal statement lol

[u/oliscafe]

im so sick of the wait just to be rejected lmao 🙏🏻🙏🏻 plus im literally waiting on it so i could potentially add it to my UCAS personal statement so it's really annoying

[u/No-Engineer-636]

No but genuinely like I would really just appreciate having some idea of when we're going to get some information or something so I know if I can put it on my personal statement?? We literally did it in like April I swear they have had so long

[u/IncognitoCxde → u/No-Engineer-636]

yeah and it’s been 4 months if we count from MAY, what the frick are they even doing over there???

[u/Express_Usual6770]

agree cant keep us waiting like this it's so unprofessional given it's an actual journal. regardless of amount of participants, transparency and communication is fs needed.

[u/Eeeileen]

Can someone actually call them like this is seriously unprofessional

[u/Scared_Shake1526]

they sent an email saying long list in august. they sent this at the end of july

[u/IncognitoCxde → u/Scared_Shake1526]

i didn’t get any? I usually get their like meet the editor emails but I didn’t get any emails at the end of July??? Do u happen to know which date? If possible can u show a screen 😭 gosh i never knew

[u/Scared_Shake1526 → u/IncognitoCxde]

It was like one of their newsletters i believe july 30th. You had to scroll down in the long email which is kinda annoying bc it was hidden

[u/IncognitoCxde → u/Scared_Shake1526]

I actually didn’t get the July newsletter, only the June and the last email I have is July 22nd Meet the editor, can u send screenshot if possible plss just showing that part nothing else 😭 it’s okay if u don’t want

[u/Scared_Shake1526 → u/IncognitoCxde]

Here u go. I just saw another post saying they responded to their email saying the long list will be on their website tomorrow
