TeflonDon, I feel like you and I are in the same boat. URMS who interviewed late Jan (I was 1/31) and missed that wave of JS2's six days later. My impression is that the JS2's coming out today are V-Day mercy calls for people who were held or haven't heard in over a month. I think we'll probably hear Tuesday if we hear anytime soon.

I had JS1 on 1/30.. Here's to hoping you're right!
