Invited to interview!! For those who haven't received an email, check your spam box. Mine was sent there so I didn't know I'd gotten it for 3 hours or so.

Guys, something is not adding up!

After the final wave went out today, we only have 27 interview invites +6 already interviewed. This is 33% of the 100 R1 applicants.
Last year there were 76 people were interviewed, which was 75% of the 104 R1 applicants.

Obviously well have many more people update their status within the next few days so its quiet possible the number can increase a bit, yet I still don't see it passing 50% for R1 this year (at least not until the waitlisters get interviewed)

would love to hear your thoughts

Is interview a make or break deal for Ross, I had my interview (with standard questions mentioned in previous posts - why MBA, ST, LT goals, Leadership, teamwork stories) but I felt the interviewer wasn't very convinced on some parts though she felt I could bring tremendous value to the table.

I felt on whole, it was ok-ok, but I don't know honestly.Any admits had similar experience before?

Any thoughts are welcome!

i would give it a few days for all invitees to update their status. if a lot fewer people get invited, that's a good thing for those of us who are invited right? :twisted:

Does anybody know whether Ross emails candidates who have been denied? Or whether it shows up on their account on Ross website? I understand there are no guarantees, but am still a little surprised at not being called to atleast interview :(

I was interviewed and waitlised in R2 last year. But I didn't get an interview for R1 this year.

I guess that's because I don't have much change in the past 6 months.

Sigh, I guess that's it.

From my experience, in general, a non invite is not a ding. You can still be placed on WL. however, i read Ross admissions blog that they do try to interview WL candidates to lighten the load for future interviews.
