We always get about half the applications on the last day. It's not necessarily a sign of procrastination. A lot of these people have been working on their applications; they just haven't submitted them yet.



This is definitely the case for us. We started the application process earlier but have not submitted until the last hour. We've been updating answer by answer.


That's interesting. I wonder what the trade off is between submitting a possibly imperfect application early, vs. a polished-as-possble entry on the last day.


It depends on who submitted it. We submitted early, but have made small revisions every day, aside from two large revisions in the last day or two. I guess we were not too worried about it. If it's going to work, it's going to work.


Agreed, if it's going to work... it's going to work. We submitted our app a week or so ago and haven't looked back.
