So if we survive for 2 more weeks its a WL, right?

Right?

Doesn't bode not-well...for Waitlists, I guess.

I also had my interview today and didn't think to ask this. Is this a bad sign for those of us who just interviewed today?

I think if you got an interview then you're probably fine. As for the rest of us with no JS1, really means we will be dinged or waitlisted.

I'm still probably going to develop an ulcer. Oh well, it'll hopefully be worth it.

There's usually a big wave of JS2s rights before the April 1st "deadline" so not necessarily.

Main reason I thought it could be bad for us is that would require a very quick JS2 turnaround, meanwhile it seems like most JS1-JS2 wait times are at least 30 days. So unless they just do ours unusually quick because we interviewed last, I thought it could be a disadvantage and possibly mean we will be left for the WL.

I got my JS2 just barely over 2 weeks after my JS1 and I'm not the only one who that was the case for in this most recent wave (several interviewed after I did and got a JS2 the same day as me IIRC) so it's certainly not unprecedented.

I don't think so. They aren't doing interviews just for practice, so if you were bound for the waitlist, they wouldn't have bothered. A JS1 means they're seriously considering you.

That's how I feel. I've been on Application Complete since 11/25. At the very least...I didn't receive a ding today (I'm sorry to all who did).

so with them saying they want to have decisions out by April 1st.. does this pretty much mean if no Js1 yet then it's not happening? :?

I was thinking it would be better for people in your js1 wave. I interviewed early February and feel like it's a setback since they seemed to have passed me over during the last JS2 wave. I guess it's all about perspective!
