@FancySpiritualKnight: Don't think so. I had DLS for a while after getting WL. They also emailed me to look out for an interview invite soon so don't think it means R.

anyone do the WL interview yet? how was it?
8:59
i did it, it's typical interview stuff. You get asked some practice question first to get used to it, you can pratice as long as you want 2 questions at a time. You have 45 seconds to think then 1.5 minutes to answer. There are 5 questions in the actual test.

do we think they even have space still
luckyapp
12:09
Not impossible that they still have space
luckyapp
12:09
But there's no real way to know
I spoke to admissions and they stated they are still in a process of wholistic review, and that that process takes a long time. I would imagine they would not still be reviewing candidates if there were absolutely no spaces left
luckyapp
10:42
Agreed yeah
luckyapp
