Interviewer emailed me on Monday to set up an interview, I promptly replied, and haven't heard from her since

Gah! Vanderbilt released decisions on 11/16 last cycle. I've been checking the status checker three or four times a day this week.
It would be an anxious wait if they release decisions right before Thanksgiving and the packages don't arrive until the next week.

Applying to Vandy has been hands-down the worst experience of the cycle so far.

Is that just because of your interview experience or were there other factors as well?thelawschoolproject wrote:Applying to Vandy has been hands-down the worst experience of the cycle so far.

Didn't see anything about interview attire in the thread. Full suit and tie or are slacks and a jacket enough?

Oh Unam, you've totally missed it:
1). Interview lady was super angry. Criticized every answer I made. And, then made political digs at the Congressman I worked for.
2). I emailed Interview Lady my resume. During the interview, she said she never received it, and asked me to send it again. So, I did.
3). The evil snake emailed me yesterday saying how it's "unfortunate" that I'm "not responsible enough" to email a "simple" resume.

My interviewer e-mailed me and said that casual wear is good, they were going to be in jeans. I think it's going to depend on the the person you are interviewing with, but I don't think a full suit would be necessary at all.PrincetonLaw wrote:Didn't see anything about interview attire in the thread.

No suit necessary in most cases. My interviewer wore jeans and a sweater; I wore slacks and a tie under a sweater.bigeast03 wrote:My interviewer e-mailed me and said that casual wear is good, they were going to be in jeans.

Don't worry LSP: you're still a great applicant for Vandy, and they'd be luck to have you!

For sure, Im thinking/hoping that the school is good enough to consider the awesomeness of the rest of your app and admit you regardless of one person's impression. Good luck!thelawschoolproject wrote:anewaphorist wrote:Don't worry LSP: you're still a great applicant for Vandy, and they'd be luck to have you!
ThanksI hope it works out. I really do like the school.

Any indication on when we can expect to start hearing back from Vandy? According to LSN some people had heard by this time last year...

I hope so! I was complete really early (9/29 I think) so maybe they're going through it by completed date.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
