I emailed them and they told me my app is still under consideration - their screening requirements are super vague so idk

If you just had your primary verified, I think UMass takes a little longer since they screen. But for people who were verified in july or early august i would think they may have been screened out

i would say i felt fine after kira. Didn't think I killed it but also felt good about most answers. Ran slightly over on 1-2 answers but otherwise I was well timed.

i felt horrible after mine lol. i made an oops face at the end of mine, not realizing it was still recording. And for another prompt, I was straight up thinking of an answer for 30 seconds before speaking, and I have an RBF too lmao. still somehow got a second-round interview invite tho LOL
