It has been six weeks six I sent requested additional materials.  I guess that means I made the long short list. Starting to think I'm out of the running.   Who knows!

Doesn't mean a damn thing.
Stop obsessing, and think about something else.
Do some work.  Watch a movie.

I am far from obsessing.  Way too busy for that.

FWIW, I just got an invitation for a campus interview 7.5 weeks after my phone interview. I had all but abandoned hope on that application.

Also, I had a phone interview on 1/24 for an application due on 11/1. So you never now.

If it can be measured in "weeks" and not "months", then don't worry about it.

And once it reaches several months, stop worrying about it anyway.
