Not to rain on anybody’s parade, but...
I interviewed on Monday and received the emails Tuesday and Friday. I highly doubt receiving these emails has anything to do with the admission decision.
I was told that after interviewing, my file goes to a third reviewer who will summarize my app + interviewer’s notes and recommend me as high priority or regular (so he basically meant I interviewed for the WL :/ ). He also said not to expect a response before the end of the month because they’re on break.

Hope this eases your nerves!

Do you mind posting or PMing when you were supposed to interview? Just curious if they are going chronologically from first cancelled interview date or some other ranking?

I was scheduled to interview in mid-March

I was one of the first interview dates that was canceled and I just got an email to reschedule to this week. I think they are just going in order of date I wouldn’t worry too much I bet they’ll reach out really soon!

does anyone know what percentages of HPWL and normal WL which typically eventually get an A?

Not sure what exact percentages but it seems like a majority of HPWL were accepted at least on SDN the last 2 years. No idea about the normal WL as this seems to vary year to year. I’m assuming Einstein will have to accept more from waitlists though since it seems they won’t be able to interview nearly as many people this spring like usual.

I was supposed to interview on April 6th and so they scheduled the zoom interview for the 6th as well. I guess I got lucky?

Copped a tasty R today. Interviewed early march. Good luck y'all and stay safe out there!

Thank you so much for sharing. I'm sorry about that R. I've copped a solid amount of those myself so I feel your pain</3. At least they're getting to early march! I wonder if anyone else got an R/any email today.
 
I feel like they've either made A/WL decisions on March interviews and just haven't sent them out yet, or they're going to wait to put us on HPWL or the regular WL (or R) based on how many people keep Einstein as their top choice by May 1
 
I wonder how many people have heard back recently. We know of the one R because we were updated but no As or any other movement. It seems they really only start sending out decisions close to deadlines. So I feel like the closer to april 30th the sooner we’d hear back. I’m def not used to waiting more than a month for a reply so this is new to me lmao
