Does anyone know if MIT BCS is sending out invites over a few days like they have in the past, or am I completely screwed? ?
Your post sent me an email alert, which made me freak out haha seemingly you are not alone!

Good to know. Thanks! Do you usually know who you are matched with right away so you can prepare? Or do you have to wait until interview weekend to find out? Also, is it ok to RSVP to the interview 1 day late? I think I need more time to research what other 5 PIs to put on my list.
I think it is up to the administrator, but in my case I was notified about the faculty list and time schedule around one month earlier so that I can prepare (or just chill). Since all of my interviews were and will be done in Zoom, they arranged me a detailed timetable which tells me whom I would meet.

For my interview invite, they asked me to list up to 8 profs I would like to meet (ranked by preference). I only have three. Should I research and list more? Or should I focus on the three?
Isn't it mandatory to list up to 8? In my case, the school asked me to choose 8 and then allocated me 5 professors considering both the time availability and my preference. Thankfully, none of 6~8th priority professors were matched. I think you should search again
