Congrats, but dang what's your secret to nailing all your interviews?

It's just me. I wish I could tell you a secret, but it's all the stuff that everyone already knows. Be yourself, have fun in the interview, don't overprepare, be confident.

I guess it's just a skill of mine.

Agreed.
I cannot stress enough how important I feel it is not to over-prepare for interviews. Its can kill any conversation that may come up. You go in with these interviews with paragraph answers engrained in your head and say it turns out to be a relaxed conversation. Bam...you have to shift gears so quickly the people tend to falter.

Trying to keep my confident high, but its really hard, especially after i was put into the waiting lists. Congrats for those who got accepted.

Keep your head up.. You should be very proud that you were able to get interviews at 4 schools. You should be pretty confident that you will get in by the end of this cycle. I envy your position! Good luck!!!🙂
 
Thank you my friend, but as you can see the status for this cycle are insane and mine are very mediocre.
I wish you the best.

that was fast..congrats!

..anyone else hear from BU about acceptances post-Dec 3?

BU Interview was 1/8 and got accepted the next morning 1/9. They said 4-6 weeks on interview day, but I was pleasantly shocked to find out the next day! First acceptance.

Also have post-Dec interviews at UMaryland (1/22 -- found out 1/8) and Tufts (1/28 -- found out 12/19). Only school I haven't heard from that I really wanted was Marquette. Application was put on "hold" as of Dec. 3rd, but does anyone know if they are officially done? I guess three out of my top four isn't bad...

I'm interested if there are any evidence that this cycle's stats are "insane." I'm assuming this is your second time applying?
