Monday, July 17 2017 at 11:00 AM

I've been under review since 11/13/17, but no decision yet.

Tuesday, December 12 2017 at 10:16 AM

I went under review finally two days ago, but I guess I won't be hearing from them for quite a while!

Congrats on all those acceptances so far. We have pretty similar stats so I'm excited to see that! How did your Harvard interview go?

Monday, July 17 2017 at 11:00 AM

Thanks! It was a pretty standard interview-- about 15 minutes, conversation flowed nicely, felt good overall!
