You are bringing hope to those without a GPA!

Congrats everyone. That turkey day surprise is looking pretty unlikely for me, unfortunately.

Can anyone with access tell us how many spots their still are? Im guessing they sent out enough for those 40 or so slots, though, judging by all the JS1s here.

Can some JS1 vets offer advice on what to expect during the interview ?

Yes we should gather our forces, the un-GPAed ones.

Pretty amazed here myself!!! Wasn't expecting one at all though

Congratz on such quick review. In your opinion, Is it your softs or your personal statement that prompted their speedy decision?

My softs are above average but nothing spectacular. I think my PS was decent but it wasn't anything extraordinary.

Probably not today, but maybe this week. There are 15 slots open on the 25th.

I wonder why they didn't contact those 15 people yesterday. I guess decisions haven't been finalized...

It would make sense for them to offer more times for interviews than the number of people asked to interview. Otherwise, if you are the last guy/girl to pick you have one time option. If that time doesnt work, oh well. This way even the last guy/girl to choose has some time options to pick from.

I'm not sure those slots were open yesterday. I didn't check carefully, but I think the only slots that were open were through the 21st.

I only saw dates through the 21st when I signed up yesterday.

They're probably spots reserved for TLS posters

psychmusic wrote:I have a wild guess about the slots/scheduling-

It seems like the actual slots for the js1s are in place when they send the wave. After a bit of time has passed, they post a few more slots that will actually be for the next wave to give additional options to people for whom the initial set didn't work. Once everyone from the wave has registered, they take the slots back down, and repost them before the next wave. Does that make any sense/does anyone else who has seen the schedule agree or disagree?

You're spot on. I've been seeing spots for Dec. 1st every few days over the past 2 weeks, but every time I refresh the page, they're gone. I think it's just how their scheduler works. The program won't allow them to hide a slot until it actually exists, so lame folk like myself who have nothing better to do but f5 their page get to see what they're planning.

PS: Post 500

jimmymac · Post by **jimmymac** » Tue Nov 11, 2014 6:35 pm

Any estimate on how many JS1s have been given out yet? Around 100? 150?
