A quick definition of kleptomania:

Term: KLEPTOMANIA

Definition: Kleptomania is a condition where a person has a strong urge to steal things, even if they don't need them or can afford to buy them. This urge is often uncontrollable and can cause the person to steal things they don't even want or need. Someone who has kleptomania is called a kleptomaniac.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Kleptomania is a condition where a person has an uncontrollable urge to steal things, even if they don't need or want them.

Example 1: Sarah has kleptomania and often steals small items like pens or candy from stores, even though she can afford to buy them.

Example 2: John has kleptomania and has been caught stealing from his friends' houses, even though he has no use for the items he takes.

These examples illustrate how kleptomania is a compulsive urge to steal, even when there is no economic motive. People with kleptomania may feel a sense of relief or pleasure when they steal, but they often feel guilty or ashamed afterwards. It is important for individuals with kleptomania to seek professional help to manage their condition.

you too haha, i was super surprised to have received one so early not gonna lie
i heard the group interview is really chill and I'm kinda excited to do it
seems cool

Yeah, 7sage has a page that talks about the questions for each schools interview, GULC's seems unique
13:15
Idk how much of an effect it has on admissions chances but should be cool either way
ive heard the conversion rate for gulc group interview is pretty high even moreso if you have the stats
it's hard to say but i've also heard that the group interview is harder to get than the alumni interview. but who really knows tbh
im p sure they don't interview everyone and getting one this early should be a great sign!

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
