Hi everyone,

I just heard the news that I am waitlisted as well. I am an R3 applicant.

Profile:

French, 28
5 years in Investment Banking and Private Equity in London
Lived in Canada
3 Languages spoken
GMAT 710

Does anyone know the chances to be accepted when waitlisted? I guess it is harder to be accepted once waitlisted when you are an R3 applicant no?
I am not an active user of these forums but I really really want to go to INSEAD and would appreciate your insights.

Is there anything to do: contact my interviewers? Go to Fonty to demonstrate motivation?

THOSE WHO GOT ACCEPTED AFTER BEING WAITLISTED, What would you recommend to do?

Hi
I Got wait-listed today too

I researched the matter an apparently staying in communication with your AC is good without pestering them. so a letter once a month is good .

In the case of round 3 it is not more difficult to be admitted. I have called my AC and was advised that they will do there best to shorten the waiting time, it is just that they do not know how many seats left.

my instinct tells me that wait-listed people will be moved onward in two dates, 1- after the 25th of October once they know how many people are accepted/denied.
2-after the 22nd of November, once the deposit deadline has passed so those who have not managed to secure their seats, will be denied and waitlisted candidates will move on.

The good news are you are not DINGED, I would rather wait few weeks than be told good bey

good luck

Do you think some people who went through the interview stage are DINGED after that? Or do they offer everyone who went through that stage (i.e. people with a decent background) to be waitlisted?

I am sure some are dinged

Someone with MBA Connect access can give us the stats for admin for French/ German/ British nationals? thanks

Still 433 in total, so it's not updated with the latest R3 admits yet.

25 British
46 French
14 German

433?! So applying in R3 is meaningless no? Why do they say that you have the same chances to be integrated no matter the round to which you apply?

Don't they admit from 500 to 550 overall? And they say that the bulk is applying during the round 1-2 so the number of applicants per place is similar in all rounds.

yeah maybe but look, there are already 46 French nationals taken in R1 and R2. How many seats left for a French applicant in R3 ?

Overall chances are higher during rounds 1 and 2, round 3 is more unpredictable.

Hi I'm R3 waiting list. Have you done anything for the waiting period?
Thanks.

Wait Listed (R3) and no clue how to go about it. What are the rest planning?
