I know it’s very stressful and the waiting game is terrible. For anyone who interviewed early October do you think decisions will come out in November or December?

I interviewed 9/24 and 9/30 for traditional and PURCH. from what I have read here, we should wait. When I interviewed, they told me the application first goes to PURCH, then after they make a decision, it goes to traditional. Im guessing they are still in the process of evaluating my application, and this may also be the case for you. I feel you, and sometimes I get stressed out, but be patient. I am trying

Finished Kira on 10/05, still no post II, anyone?

Submitted Kira 10/01 still haven’t heard back yet either. Someone on here was waiting almost 2 months. Maybe they haven’t gotten to the October Kira folks or they send in batches ?

I was 10/2 and received my ii a week ago. I think it’s just going in batches! (Not necessarily in order)

can anyone who completed the Lahey Interview just speak generally about how long the 3 1:1 interviews were? I know they carve out 12-5pm EST for these sessions...are the remaining 4 hours after the 1 hour welcome completely used for interviewing?? just seems like a lot!!

they used the rest of the time pretty much. maybe ended like 10-15 min early? There’s a 1 hr break time built in amongst the interviews. I forget exactly how long each interview was but i think it used most of the hour for each one

okay thanks so much!! if you don't mind sharing--how'd you feel about the general vibe? was it conversational or did you feel like you were getting grilled?
