I got a good guy to talk to. He was telling that October would be closed and commuication would be sent out next week. I told him that some guys got Chennai interviews for Novermber and asked him to give me the factual position. He said that those who got November interviews are done but a few of the us still waiting for interviews have a chance of getting October date, as Chennai always comes up with late openings in the first week of the month.

It looks like a few of the lucky ones will get into October and the rest will get into Novermber.

You and I and Dave have been on more or less the same track, but I guess I pulled ahead a little because Costa Rica is not a busy embassy so interviews come a little quicker, but you and Dave will be right there sooner than you know, and we can all share some electrons in celebration

Yes, they will most likely ask you to carry the x-ray portion to the interview though.
