So during the first week of classes I changed some classes around and basically am now taking intro spanish and business fundamentals instead of comparative anatomy. Should I mention this during interviews and try to give my rationale (as some schools may interpret this as switching to an easier load when they suddenly see it on the academic update as they are making admission decisions)? Or should I talk about it only if the interviewers bring up my current semester classwork? Does it even matter?

Also, I applied to 10 schools (mostly in August) and currently have 2 pre-dec and 2 post-dec interviews, how would you guys rate my acceptance chances (3.9 GPA 21DAT 17 PAT)?

I have had a few interviews so far, and none have mentioned anything about that. I would not say anything unless asked, at least until after you get accepted. Lay low till then :ninja:
