How many days/months to know if we've been preselected?

Just to have an idea

Judging from previous sessions, I'd say we'll hear something by end of November, but keep in mind that each session may have different timing.

Does anyone know if we get any kind of notification even if we are not selected?

I think such long delay in their response, makes us forget that we have applied in the first place. They should give us any initial notification before late of November, so to keep up EC in our mind.

I have asked. We will be informed about eligibility check/ inclusion in the Blue Book at the beginning of December
