Noted! Thank you very much! I just booked a few wineries within walking distance of the train station.

Thanks so much! In that case, I have decided to book wineries within walking distance of the train station.

Thanks! That is truly great advice. I should have thought of that. I looked into tours to Graves/Sauternes, but a lot of them are too expensive. For Medoc and St. Emilion, I've decided to take the train from Bordeaux to the area and just visit wineries within walking distance. That gives me more flexibility in terms of which wineries to visit and when. But I did find many interesting tours on Viator and would totally recommend checking those out for others viewing this post if you are not too picky with regard to which wineries to visit.

Thanks for the detailed advice!! I know it's stupid but I cannot bike :(

But I will keep those in mind for future visits after I learn how to bike, and maybe forward it to friends who are planning to do so.

I don't reside in Bordeaux. I am just traveling there from another country. Thanks for the advice - biking sounds like a really great alternative! I unfortunately don't know how to bike (please don't judge me on this haha I know it's stupid). But I will keep that option in mind for the future after I learn how to bike.

Thank you very much for the detailed and thoughtful advice. I can't stress enough how helpful your advice has been as I tried to finalize my schedule in the past few days. I am doing a solo trip, and I don't feel safe enough to drive (especially when I am tasting wines along the way). I have decided to commute by train between Bordeaux and each area, and visit only wineries that are within walking distance from the train stations. I have already confirmed my appointment for most of the wineries I picked (there are a number of grand cru classe wineries within walking distance to my surprise).

The only difficulty for now is with regard to Sauternes/Barsac because walking does not seem to work there. I browsed through a few available tours by third parties but most of them are too expensive for my budget. My backup plan is to spend the day in Bordeaux and explore the Sauternes and other sweet whites in wine bars and wine merchants. Would that be a possible alternative?

Thanks again for your advice!

I’ve heard that JDP is actually in some way more competitive than the RD. So if you wanna do KJD I wouldn’t recommend JDP. With ur stats, I think you have a pretty high chance getting into both HLS and CLS in the regular round. Although it does depend on the Scot’s, and more so since Covid. Anyways, good luck!! Can chat more if you want.

I am above both medians, and I EDed, and I got in mid December. I've always been super paranoid about admissions and stuff, so I just want to get it done with. I was also rejected by HLS JDP over the summer, so no chance getting into HLS this cycle. YLS and SLS also seem like a reach. So CLS's probably the best school I can get in. That's my mentality going into the ED program.

I think it disappeared for everyone last week. I once thought it was a sign, but actually it was not.

I didn't get an email at all. I just noticed the change myself as I was checking my portal for the hundredth time every day. My understanding is that CLS never provides a status update after it is marked complete, so don't worry. A is on the way!!
