When do you think LA placements will come out? haha
No clue haha. I don't think they'll get to us today though. They probably wanted to get DC/NYC figured out first
You're probably right. haha I wonder if any firms were added to the LA list.

On the bright side, I can't even access the trainings: it says "unable to authenticate user" or something like that. Can anyone access the training?

I doubt we're screwed. You're clearly competent if you got into a good school and SEO believes in you =)

True- thanks for the pick me up. We got this!!! Also, when it says you may go over the material as many times as you need, do you think this includes the exams as well?

Just tried to login and received the same message.
