any idea of Princeton Molbio post-interview acceptance rate?

I have an interview coming up this weekend and had a quick question about what to say in terms of giving a short spiel about my research (for explanation in passing, etc.). I'm not currently working in a lab- should I focus on my undergrad microbiology research (as the program I'm interviewing at is Micro program) or my most recent research experience?

At this point no news is bad news right? I'm wondering mainly about UCSF Tetrad. Invitations were sent out before Christmas, as mentioned above, but there also haven't been any rejections sent out. Does that mean the deadline for responding about the interview just hasn't passed yet, and they're sitting on the applications until then?
