The first thing I look at for people reapplying is still the video, but the second is what has changed since the last application.

Alumni recommendations are useful if they're strong, but neutral or slightly negative if they're weak. If someone isn't excited enough to give you an independent recommendation with you asking, it's probably not worth requesting.

Thanks Sama.

PS: if it's helpful to know. The diversity office hours convinced us to apply last time. I hope you continue to do more!
