It doesn't matter; your case has been processed, and you're waiting for the interview.
Receipt Date (RD): Date when application was received by USCIS.
Notice Date (ND): Date when notification was sent back to beneficiary/attorney by USCIS
Priority Date (PD): Date when application for LC received by DOL or date when application for 140/130 received by USCIS.
Out of above three dates, Priority Date is most important date during immigration process. PD decides your eligibility to adjust status (to file I-485) in US or consulate processing at US mission outside US.

Unless you're the immediate relative of a US citizen, in which case it is irrelevant.
