Anyone have any statistics on how many applicants are being reviewed at the Board this week?

Alot. But not all. The board only looks at new packets

Are you saying that if you weren't awarded a scholarship in the previous boards, you won't be considered for the final board? Are previous packets already ranked with only new packets being ranked in this board?

Your packet will not be reviewed again by the final board if it was already reviewed by a previous board. If you were previously reviewed by a board, you are already on the order of merit list.

So they don’t take a second look at your application unless there’s new or updated info to review?

You are only reviewed by the board of PMS one time. Any update in test scores of GPA does help, but you will not be reviewed again.

If your packet isn't reviewed again, how are updated test scores and GPA helpful?

Some things add to your overall score of points that determine your spot on the OML, without having to be reviewed by the board. Like adding that you were team captain of a sport, after being reviewed by a previous board automatically adds points to your file.

So the OML is computer generated from the information you provide to your file?

Correct. Just your points will increase based on the updates.
