last year it was for As; previous years (e.g., 2020), it was for alt list (Ws). just hard to speculate.

Just saying – I think it's very cruel to send out a zoom link for waitlist. Like everything isn't stressful enough and takes its toll on you – if they're going to proceed with the zoom link, it should only be for those admitted. Why set up false hope? Does anyone else think that that is cruel and inappropriate? I hope someone from the school is reading this and takes note.

ZOOM!
Completely agree with this... if it was a WL I'd prefer to just be emailed..
I think its very unlikely its a WL. I don't think they'd want to see the exact moment they crush the hopes and dreams of a zoom full of students.
To be fair they might see me ugly cry regardless of A or WL.

I agree, but according to SDN if accurate they did do it the year before last year

Any precedent in recent years of students not getting the Zoom link and still getting in?

It says that if you cant make the zoom, you will get the same information in an email later that day

Are they done sending them out?
I would 100% agree with you except that it did happen in the past lol. I'm hoping that maybe a lesson was learned from that year not to do it again and that this coming monday is A's
If I remember correctly** from the interview day they said that there are multiple points of accepting people into the program. In other words, if you don't get an A Oct Xth, then you might still be eligible on future days, outside of even a waitlist.
** I am forgetful, and have been fed a lot of information from a lot of different schools

Is the consensus that if you didn't receive the zoom link yesterday, you're not going to be accepted on Monday?

Can we just call into the Zoom session and listen in if we're at work?
I don’t see why that would be a problem. go for it

I am using this as cope thanks
It seems pretty clear to me that they send zoom links to people that are getting As, and then ask them to not disclose that zoom link=A during the meeting. The post above from wallstreetbroke admitted that the people he is referring to were not too reliable and could very possibly have received zoom links but didn't notice them/they were in their spam folder. So yes, I would assume that if you interviewed in September, then no zoom link=alt list. Expect the worst, hope for the best 🙁
Didn't even get an II lol

You are too good for them. Without a doubt, you will hear a multitude of acceptances tomorrow. Best of luck!
No Zoom link, I'm going to assume I'm rejected rn to save myself the mental anguish of a post II WL/R. Whoever came up with the idea of a pre A Zoom to give applicants another thing to stress about, I don't like you :/

I’m obviously butthurt bc I didn’t get a zoom link but seriously. What an absolutely terrible idea.
it is what it is. They just telegraph their admissions decisions a few days early and try to have fun with people. But those well versed in SDN forums know exactly what a zoom link means 🤣
I also think it's quite funny how people rush to SDN to post about their acceptance 0.1 seconds after getting it (rightfully so I might add), but in previous years, there is almost nobody reporting As on this thread. Just zoom links, and then those people magically disappear

+1 Alt
Maybe adcoms told them to not say on forums for confidentiality?
That is correct, it’s just so obvious lol, they’re not fooling anyone. +1 alt btw
+1 Alt
Alt list, does anyone know how good our chances are? I forget how many candidates are pulled from the WL
+1 Alt :/

does case even send out Rs or does everyone who doesn't get an A today get alt list?
Judging from Case's other yearly threads on SDN, it looks like everyone else gets alt listed.
