Does it matter when you get an interview?

[Guest Jazz]

I heard applicants with higher averages receive interviews earlier, is there any truth to that?

[Guest kellyl20]

yes, those with higher rankings go first

Kelly 120. Where did you get your info? As far as I know, that's a bit of an urban legend...according to the last Dean of Admissions, anyways. They try to minimize making it obvious where you sat in the rankings to minimize comparisons within the class that's eventually chosen. For example, if you don't get in, you can have a meeting to find out what your scores were in different categories. If you do get in, you cannot access this info. Same goes for order interviewed. It is not supposed to signify ranking
