It’s a bit strange that they decided to release some decisions on Friday evening (at least from the clear admit posts, they didn’t start calling until around 8 pm Eastern Time). Weird to then close the office all weekend while everyone else waits and wonders. I wonder what set the Friday admits apart from next week’s admits (if anything).
