All PMs have been responded to.

Scratch that, I am sure there a couple of people I haven't heard from.

I don't think so but I am not positive. I'm at work and the spreadsheet I use to keep track of the grades is at home. I don't record grades while at work.

Now that we are down to 32 contestants, the rounds should move much quicker.
