Do we think we have enough of a sample size on this board to know when invites go out?
If only 300 people apply, and about 100 are invited to interview, I imagine we at least hear from 7 people on the board getting an invite, not to mention a few people not yet registered who will come here to ask questions before their interviews.
but like they said: invites are issued between now and all the way up to the admission date, so some that don't hear back next week might still get an invite later on.
I used similar numbers. If we assume only 20 people are here, including lurkers, and that anyone who received an invite would post it, the probability that no one here received an invite is incredibly small: (I assumed independence to simplify, it's fairly close to independent)
\((\frac{2}{3})^2^0 = .03%\)
We can be 99.97% confident that invites have not been sent out, yet. That's high enough for me to rest easy.
