How are reviews allocated

Reviews are allocated automatically by the system using a backwards-allocation method.

Initial submissions are pooled and early submitters are told they will be notified by email when they can commence reviewing.

When the initial pool reaches the required size (around 4 to 5), each early submitter is allocated two reviews from the initial pool.

Later submitters review the submissions of two students who submitted before them (but not immediately before them). In this way, most students can review immediately after they submit.

The chain of review relationships can continue indefinitely after this point in time.

Here are some facts about the number of reviews students will conduct and receive.
