I interviewed at a later date than y'all, but I remember the admissions guy saying decisions would be out some time after noon PST but definitely before 5 PST.

According to the AAMC Waitlist Procedures doc, around 30-35. I believe Brian last year said between 10-20% of the WL (which tends to be 300 people).

Does anyone have interview tips/ how was the interview?

 

[brazzimamma]

Does anyone have interview tips/ how was the interview?

It was heavily situational. I'd say be yourself, approach every situation with an open mind (see all sides and never assume the worst of anyone), and if you don't know be honest and try to have a dialogue with the interviewer! There was one station I didn't quite know what to say because I was unsure so I was just honest about that and it worked out!
