Everyone got the results from Dreamer?
I did not ask him and I will not.
Is there someone who will stay awake all night like/with me?
I am in! Scared as hell!

Messaged him about an hour ago but didn't get response yet still optimistic

Did you get your results from dreamer? Maybe you should wait if you did not. There was just a successful MSCA- SE with a >97% that was evaluation all the way.

Yes, dreamer sent me the results. It’s frustrating but the good point is that it’s been my last chance in this lottery! Not elegible anymore...

This is true, in fact I am quite devastated by my 92.0% reserve list...

Real tragedy is when you miss it by whiskers.

I don’t understand how it works. My proposal was much better than that of last year, yet I got a lower score!! Thanks Dreamer for replying me.

The same for me, I am really shoked, a lower score than last years with an improved and revised project... my question is about the choice ok key words for the evaluation phase. I am in SOC, but my project is very interdisciplinary and I suspect I should indicate other panel to ne evaluated (I am dealing with digital humanities methods and I suspect sociologists don't appreaciated it so much, you know, I am not into the mainstream.... It is a big problem for me!). Not to talk about the gender in the proposal: last time I insert a paragraph and the evaliator said: the gender is well explained etc etc but you but you've never been involved in gender studies, so you're not credible. This year I avoided to insert the gender, and I am curios to read them... probably they will sey, your propsal is good, but there is a lack of gender domension, I am pretty sure of this...
Finally, and sorry for the very long post, I think the age is imoortant: I am 40 yo and I held my phd ten year ago... I think they don't want to finance project written by senior researchers, otherwise i cant explain the strange evaluation I had and I am going to have again...
Good luck to all and thanks

I am actually wondering after how much time after sending the results to NCP/hosts they release them to the applicants? Does someone have this in his/her memory from the last year's? It is a few days, a week?

I have the feeling the results will be sent tonight... Last year they started coming out at midnight on Tuesday, and also we are sure that the results are ready so...

Last year the leak was before the week end and then results came out on Tuesday...

But you cannot drop so much from reserve list first year to below 70% in the third/fourth year ...

It is tragedy for me

Same here. I feel your pain... I’m below 70% with my best application in three years.

Oh yeah, you can. 92.6%, 76% and then 68.2% (from dreamer). Application -supposedly- improved over the years. So total lottery for me!

I happened on this discussion today looking into the MSCA-IF results. Are the cut-offs for this year already known? I've PM'd Dreamer with my proposal ID for my evaluation, but am still waiting. Knowing the cut-offs would be useful in the meantime.

All the best to you all out there! If only we were doing a public viewing in a bar together!

I do agree: the biggest lottery I ve never seen
