A quick definition of traditio brevi manu:

Traditio brevi manu: A fancy Latin term used in Roman law that means giving something to someone who already has it. It's like when you lend a book to a friend and then tell them they can keep it instead of taking it back and giving it to them again. This is a type of delivery that doesn't need any extra steps. There are two other types of delivery, but they're not important right now.

A more thorough explanation:

Traditio brevi manu is a legal term from Roman law. It means giving something to someone who already has it. This is called constructive delivery. It is different from other types of delivery because the person who gets the thing doesn't have to give it back and then get it again. For example, if you lend a book to someone and then decide to give it to them, you can just tell them they can keep it. You don't have to take the book back and give it to them again. This is an example of traditio brevi manu.

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!
13:16
Yeah I've heard the same ab the group interview
