Good luck to all those doing interviews tomorrow and those early April in Sudbury! I don't know if things were just easier this year, but the questions were definitely more forgiving than last years! -

I know the individual that got in on Wednesday... I am still unsure if someone dropped to attend another school, or completely opted out of their seat. Regardless, there is always hope! -

I saw this on their website only yesterday and was waiting for a trend to start.
