Citadel Process Timeline

Was interviewing with a Citadel pod for an Associate gig and they've gone quiet with me since my last interview (last Thursday) with the PM. I know it's barely been like 3 business days (not including the interview day but I'm kind of getting worried since they were really quick to schedule me for everything prior (Analyst interviews, case study, and case study debrief). I don't think my PM interview was bad or anything but I didn't walk away thinking I knocked it out of the park.

What have people's experiences been with regards to process timeline? Should I just expect that I'm cut and move on or hold out hope that I'm still in the mix?
