There should be updates throughout the day. The email last night said a number of firms missed the 11pm deadline, so there would be some rolling updates as the day goes on, and not everything right at 10am.

Edit--this is a general question for anyone who bid heavily on NYC and is doing comparatively well.

Nothing's changed for me either. Have 3 firms on the extension list. Here's hoping they're keen on interviewing lots of us.

Re: UVa OGI 2011 thread
Hey...know that as a transfer I might be upsetting some by posting here. So, if I do - know that I recognize where I came from was not as competitive as UVa, and I'm damn grateful to be a part of your school. That said, I found the results i received interesting from OCI so i thought I would share.
Incoming stats: #1 at high tier 2.
Did well in DC, Wilmington, Philly.
Got absolutely slaughtered in the regional markets. No bids at all. Bizarre. Particularly since I'm a Virginian with extensive Virginia WE.
Good luck to everyone.
