Individuals on this forum have stated similar things said by the dean. However, just a few posts ago, someone mentioned they know a couple of people who got rejected post kira

We’re ten pages deep in this forum. I’d assume some clarity would be reported otherwise. Here’s to hoping!

I'm a current student and I'm personally not involved in admissions interview but a couple of my friends are. They did confirm that the dean said that applicants who get kira interviews WILL be getting interviews. Kira interviews aren't being used as a screening process this year, maybe for future years but not this year.

Also ppl who are interviewing remember you guys signed the NDA...don't go around sharing MMI questions to others it's not fair to others and also to yourself. There's a reason why the school changed their interview method this year. May delete this later but wanted to ease some anxiety ppl are having cause I know how stressful it is to be in your position.

Do you know if Kira will be used to rank applicants after live interview?

ok needed to ask my friends and was told that they weren't told how or whether kira will be used to rank applicants so they got no clue but just treat it like your real interview cause I can't see why doing well won't help u...i mean worst case, it won't do any harm to your chances, but make sure to actually try...?
