I hope the next phase change will be occur after the EU maintenance and I am also waiting for my status change.

Hi guys. Anyone had status change today?

[dw2022]

guys, I've heard that some people get external companies to read over their project. I'm guessing these projects have a good chance. I'm wondering if this is the case for any of you? It seems to me that there are more people ranking than in evaluation so maybe it it's the opposite trend? (i.e. evaluation = higher score). who knows!

My host offered to have my draft polished by someone, who I later heard is a formal MSCA fellow in the lab. S/he has quit science and opened a company on language editing and proofreading business (wise decision!!!).
But I in the end did not get time to do it.

You can make your own predictions for this year. It will reduce our stress of the members of this forum in the upcoming call.

Hello, CatTaotao actually for the last year the people who has the phase change to ranking initially for the LIF panel on 03.02.2021 got grant (95%). After fifteen minutes phase changed to ranking became reserved one. I am not sure about the exact time, but the information based on their posting time in this portal about their phase change.

But the prediction about evaluation at longer time based on the summarised one for the fast three years. One of my friend also has the status evaluation for the longer time got grant for the last year (even some one who posted phase changes to ranking immediately has not received the seal of excellence). That's why I mentioned The person who went to ranking at the very beginning got the grant or scored above 70 and below 85.

The person who went to ranking after a long time stays in the evaluation scored above 85 and got grant or reverse list or closed to target value- based on the user comments (I hope Dreamer also experienced this).

I am going to fix my predictions finally from this year result.

Ah ok, I misunderstood your first sentence.
I think in this case I'd rather conclude that ranking means >=70 nothing more

It also makes sense if we say the highest and lowest score (>70) are easy to be ranked by your hypothesis.
Others near the threshold will take more time.

n = 28, a good sample size for a pilot study already!
the more (larger), the better ofc

I think, unlike last year at least, there were quite a few ppl (incl. me) who remained at "submission" for Mar 1 (Tue) and jumped to "ranking" on the morning of Mar 2. Some (not me) have spotted a quite fast transit of "submission - evaluation - ranking".
This makes me wonder if this year is different from past years in the general procedure and how much the past patterns enlightens us on the estimation for this year.

My guess, and it´s only a wild wild guess, is that people passing quickly from submission to evaluation to ranking got a consensual evaluation amongst the three evaluators. Those who remained longer in evaluation might be the case one or more evaluation reports were not in line with the others, so they´d have to discuss further, and then reach a consensual report...
I dont know, I am already in cuckoo town...
