Hey, in my opinion, this thread was created to track the applications of everyone who applied around the same time. Me being there is also a bit of a stretch, but all applicants here applied within 3 weeks of each other. By the time your application moves to IP, we'll already have a few citizens and this thread will eventually die out. Personally, I have no issues adding you here but it probably won't add much value due to different (and faster!) processing timings for you.

Nothing specific, i was told could be couple weeks to couple months, because of lacking citizenship judge.

Ask me to watch from invite, that was it.

Do you have an idea of the number of people that did the test with you on that day?

Likely not. Others here who had DM on Mar 2 said that the wait for oath would be 2-3 months, one person said 'weeks to months'.

How was your test today? Any thing you can share with us? Was there also 20 to 30 people doing test today?

Btw, it seems the office has not sent new tests invitation for a while.
