Think about times you have made mistakes, examples of your strengths and weaknesses, those types of examples. The website has non situational prompts that you can practice.

I interviewed on a Wednesday and received the hold notification the following Monday. I know they mentioned their goal is to review interviewees the Monday after their interview, but some folks here have seen a delay in their hold so don't stress if it takes longer!

Screaming crying throwing up so excited but also terrifiedWhat time are we expecting some A's tomorrow? Let's get some hype in this thread!
I saw in last year's thread that it was expected to come out around 4 in the portal and 6 via email. But I can't see the timestamp on thread replies so idk when it actually came out.What time are we expecting some A's tomorrow? Let's get some hype in this thread!
PM? I really hope not that late lol.
Sadly yes!
Looks like last year it came out at around 5 PM!
Welp. I guess the joy of being West Coast is that it will happen a little earlier in my day. Let's hear some good news tomorrow!
What I want to do: Just check my email once at 6 PM and find out my decision then
What I will be doing: obsessively checking for "tabs"
What I will be doing: obsessively checking for "tabs"
Exactly what I will be doing. Also doing this for my other schools 😵

Tabs?
Basically, if you got an A, in years past, extra tabs would show up on your portal around 4 pm eastern.
This is info from 2021 SDN
"Okay good luck everyone quick run through of how today is going to go. The official acceptance will come on the portal at 6:05 pm eastern: thats when the portal updates. However, sometime today they will input all of the accepted peoples names. There are 4 decision dates where there are roughly 150-200 people considered per date and 50 acceptances given. Ultimately about 200 people are put on the waitlist 2-250 with about 75-100 being pulled off of it. If you do not get the acceptance today, you are deferred to the next date. Your highest chance of getting the A comes on your FIRST decision date. It IS possible to get in on subsequent dates, but historically your BEST chance is that first date you are considered.
Once they put the names in of who is accepted- people will start to see tabs. This is essentially anything out of the ordinary on the portal. Often its a transcripts tab or just some weird box in the portal itself. you WILL know if its tabs.
ALL tabs come at the same time- when someone says they have tabs if you dont have them you aren't getting an acceptance today.
I think thats everything."
I don't think that's what happened last year tho

They usually input peoples names into the system before they release, and when they do, the accepted applicants can see extra tabs on their portal. And then a few hours later they get an email
Man this is not good for my heart
No tabs for me currently, few hours early but doesn’t hurt.

does everyone who gets a hold get an A?
Don't think so. I think it may just mean you weren't outright rejected post-II.
People on hold just means they were voted on favorably enough to be held for a potential acceptance on one of the four days.
TABS CHECK: No tabs. Time for a shower and nap, if i can sleep before this.
4:08 EST update: no tabs.
