This is random, but I read a few years back that Sinai has all exams online and on Fridays, but that was before the curriculum change. Does anyone know if that's still the case? In general, does anyone have a sense of what the new curriculum has been like and whether students like it?

Do y'all think it's worth submitting a letter of interest/intent if I haven't heard back yet? Submitted secondary 7/15 and nothing since, Icahn is one of my top choices but I don't know if I should submit a letter pre-II. ORM, LM score 74, no ties to school. Didn't think I had much of a chance but the lack of a decision is tempting me

During interview days they emphasize communication and updates so dont think it would hurt

Gotcha, do you think now would be a good time to send that? I also don't have any updates (I am just continuing all of the activities I listed in my primary), so it would pretty much just strictly be a letter of interest

First wave of acceptances are coming soon so I would say earlier rather than later given where we are in the cycle but this is coming from someone who doesn't know any better than you haha best of luck

Gotcha, thanks! I'm gonna crash out if they reject me immediately after I send my letter
 
Does anyone have any idea (school specific or in general) how quickly decisions are made -> released? Trying to decide timing of an update letter and wondering if it’s too late (interviewed in December)

Does Sinai just have a massive rejection wave at the end? Still no R or II
 
Hi guys! have an upcoming interview and was hoping to hear what the interviews were like for all of you. (were they friendly or formal etc.) Thanks in advance 🙂

fwiw, my Icahn interviewers were kinda cold? or distant? it's not even that they were overly formal, they just seemed sort of stressed and distracted. I thought the first one was odd, but then the second one was the exact same. I wouldn't worry about it too much. The questions they asked were very standard.
