Based on previous years, I expect each person to review about 12 applications found in dropbox. Each application consist of a 500-word essay, online application, transcripts, and two letters or recommendation. Each reviewer will give the student both a ranking with numbers and a ranking of "must hire", "should hire", "could hire", and "do not hire”.
