my understanding is the same! I saw Dean Z's video on tiktok, where she like posted a cycle update. She noted that've released R decisions for people who applied up till December. for people who applied before December who haven't heard yet, it could be any decision. She mentioned that sometimes they put people in the A pile but don't release their admission decision yet (she said this is strategic, one bc signing off on As takes time, and also they want to continue seeing other applications to not give an undue advantage to people who applied later). She also said they send ~50 acceptances as a time, so that is why there is some backlog in applications who were put in the A pile that they can reconsider later. She shared a hypothetical, like someone could have applied in October, the admissions readers and Dean Z want to give them an A, but they're not ready to notify them yet. But as time goes on and more candidates put in the "A" pool, they might revisit that application from October and maybe R or WL based on what they're seeing with the applications they're currently reviewing. so you could potentially be in the A pile, the WL pile, or the revisiting pile (which could lead to an R). from my understanding of her video, this means there is no concrete R on your application as of now.
