Can anyone attest how apps are reviewed if one declines to interview or doesn't schedule an interview? I'm guessing this is an auto ding.

How long after interviews do decisions come out?

this year they started doing interviews about two months earlier than last year, so we can't really go by precedent. my interviewer told me it was usually 2-4 weeks iirc, but she made it clear that that wasn't guaranteed or anything, and it might be different for the first rounds of interviews.

Xylo why are you not admitted here yet? What's going on? :shock:

On a more serious note - do they interview everyone? I assume you did it over skype or did you meet someone in yr city?

they don't interview everyone. from what I'm reading in last year's thread, it seems necessary for admission earlier in the cycle, but then later on some people get accepted without it (especially off the WL). they do Skype interviews only, kinda like H.

Same here. I'm starting to get worried now that I went UR2, but no invite :?

Yeah. A few schools. It really has not paid off in any tangible way.

Same here. Also checking in. Probably won't apply until after my December retake, though.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
