Is PT 10 days from complete or 10 days from under review? and is it 10 business or calendar days?

for me, it was 10 regular days from complete to decision. I want to say the guarantee is 10 business days from complete to decision, but if someone knows otherwise, please correct me.

Nope. A couple years out from undergrad. I don't think there's anything strange about my application. I'm interviewing with Dean Hoye this week. I'm interested to see what this interview will be about.

I think it will be. I really like Duke and would choose Duke over any of MVPB. I'm hoping it's a YP thing and I can convince them how much I love their school.

I submitted PT on 10/4 and went complete on 10/5 but my status is still listed as file complete, ready for review, not under review. It's been more than 10 days and tomorrow will be 10 business days since going complete. Should I email admissions to see what's up? Has anybody else gone from file complete to decision made without the status being under review?

from their site: " This program guarantees that you will receive a response on your application within ten days of completing your file."

I would wait through 11 business days and contact them on the 12th!

I also received an interview request. Numbers at and above Duke's 75%. I am worried about what it means.

Sentry: you mind updating me on your experience with the interview, to shed some light on its purpose?

I'm above both 75% and got accepted without interview. Did you write a Why Duke?

There have been plenty of people above both as well accepted with no interview and no why Duke....

I hope Sentry asks the Dean straight out "what is this interview for?" I'm very intrigued now.

Oh, and there's the email. Priority Reserve.

No big surprise; LSAT >75, GPA <50, no Why Duke. Meh. My sights are set a bit higher anyway...
