If you've signed up for your interview already, do the potential interview dates give you the sense that they may be done with Cambrdige invites already?
Keeping fingers crossed for a Cambridge interview invite of my own in a future wave.
Hard to say. Assuming a 13% acceptance rate and ~4500 applications, that's ~585 offers of admission. Assuming you have a 50% shot of acceptance after interview, that's 1170 interviews. The rest is a crapshoot - based on past data, ~60% of the class is from North America, which is ~700. Assuming, worst case, that ~43% of those people are from the northeast (again, hard to actually know, but basing this on employment location statistics), that's around 300 people to interview around Cambridge.
I did notice that the available interview slots were only over a 2 week (10 day) period. This would mean doing around 30 interviews per day, again, in the worst case scenario, which is definitely doable but could be exhausting. I wouldn't be surprised if they did another two weeks of interviews in Cambridge. Don't give up, but also don't obsess over it! It'll happen when/if it happens! Good luck!
Edit: ~half that amount for the R1/R2 split
