damn I've now got a 6 months + wait before I get to know when my phone interview. Is there anyone else out there in the same boat?
I think that everyone applying for the summer program for next year will be in the same boat. think almost everyone gets a phone interview for the summer program, so you have a ways to go until you are accepted onto the program, but I am sure you will do good anyhow! ;D

I stand corrected. I am sure once they actually start the hiring process for next year you will do great.
it just feels so good to know that i am that little bit closer to going there (even if there is an awful long way to go before I know for sure)
