Just declined UVAs waitlist. Will probably decline an acceptance at Georgetown and a waitlist at UW Madison soon.

Hi guys! I've mostly been obsessively watching the results page but finally decided to join you lovely people on the forum.
I got accepted to Princeton on Monday (2/25)! Planning to accept their offer, so I'm declining the other two offers I was considering (UNC and Arizona). Hope this helps someone!

Hey! I hope I'm not too late. I wish you luck!
Here is a link to a similar question asked in the philosophy forum:
Included in the thread is another link to answers from a similar question, you should find all these helpful
I've never done a skype interview for grad school specifically, so I'm not the best person to ask for advice. But in general, make sure you're somewhere with a neutral background and a good internet connection. Speak clearly, and if you're a nervous talker who speeds up under pressure, intentionally slow down what you're saying until it feels waaaay too slow. It'll sound normal speed to the people you're interviewing with. Don't ramble or go back over your answers if you're second guessing yourself--it makes you sound insecure.
Best of luck!
