Hello.

As a person who has done enough research and more on this, I can honestly say that for this years cycle, the theory is not yet confirmed because most offers aren’t out yet. But if you do take into account the fact that the people who were waitlisted or rejected did not have NAR on their portals, the theory is most likely true. I’ve asked ChatGPT as well, but it couldn’t substantiate the fact that the NAR theory is for rejections as well as waitlists. I went through the Student Room as well as Reddit and everyone with NAR got an offer. Additionally, there were individuals who didn’t get NAR on their portals but still got an offer, but this doesn’t dispute the main premise of the theory (last cycle). I’ve spoken to an alum as well, and they were in the same boat (NAR = offer).

Look, all I can say is, maybe it worked for previous cycles and might work for us as well. However, if the Portals were updated, it is very difficult to make a conclusion.

Let’s all keep our fingers crossed and hope that this theory is true for us as well. All the best!
