I just got an email from McDonough with subject ’application update’ that my application is successfully submitted and that I may be contacted for interview after a ’preliminary review’. I submitted the application on Sept ~27 and got this email today. Is this normal?

Ah, I see it's the same for me. I think they're finally reviewing the application. I'm freaking out too.

I got it as well. Does look like a glitch, since I was invited to interview a few weeks back.

Oh she directly she directly told you that your chances are good

?

For me I had normal questions - I did stumble a bit on some of the TMAY questions - Mine was with a 2 year student. But she was just taking notes and didn’t say anything about the next steps or anything

what’s your profile like?

She had your profile too or just on the basis of the interview itself she was convinced

She’s the director of admissions, so I assume she had access

Aah okay

I am guessing interview with a second year student will be different than an adcom member
