I am a reapplicant and applied on Jan 5. Last year, I got my interview invite within 3 weeks after the submission of my application. Last year, I applied with my GRE score with nearly perfect quant but a weak verbal pulling down my overall score. This year, I took quite balanced GMAT of 730 at my first attempt and prepared quite more professional resume with a cover letter.
No invite yet! Any idea if Kelley leaves the review of the reapplicants behind?
thnx!

Hey, I sent a mail to the adcom regarding the same and this is the reply I got
"Reapplicants will be considered for a new interview, but if they interviewed well the prior year, they will not likely be asked to interview again."
So I believe, we will get to know on the day the decisions are released.

Thanks for relieving comments 
Then, that implicitly means that interviews are just "yes" or "no".
I don't know if any interview invites from now on? I hope, I passed from the interview last year. Let's wait for the decision day then.

In round 1, the deadline was 15th October and the results started to come out after 2 months on 16th December.
The round 2 deadline was 5th January. So can we expect the results to start coming 2 months after that date, i.e., 5th-6th March or will the results be declared mid-march?

As far as I remember from the last year, there were some guys who had been informed before mid-march, this was rare BTW. But vast majority of decisions were released on 14th of March (Friday). I believe the decisions will be released either, hopefully, on 13th (Friday) or 16th (Monday) of March.

| FROM Kelley MBA Blog: Tackling real business challenges in the Consumer Marketing Academy |
 By Lyndsay Hoban, MBA'15 Each spring semester, first-year Consumer Marketing Academy students are given the opportunity to replicate the summer internship experience through an 8-week project that tackles real business challenges from some of the country’s top brands. As a second-year in the program, I was given the opportunity to serve in an advisory role to one of the project teams, just as junior managers will do over the summer at each student’s respective internship. After completing my own summer internship with Dr Pepper Snapple Group and experiencing both sides of the CMA project, I’ve been able to better reflect on just a few of the characteristics that make the opportunity so valuable: The emphasis on consistent reflection It’s easy to draw logical conclusions and recommendations from research, only to realize later that the data was not as impactful as it may have initially appeared. Throughout the internship process, it is crucial to continually review the findings and ask myself, So what? Where are the true impacts on firm performance or consumer behavior? What inputs are making the biggest difference? By routinely meeting with junior and senior managers played by second-years and faculty members, CMA teams learn the importance of regular gut checks. The importance of a logical and persuasive narrative The final project is not just a collection of PowerPoint slides, but a convincing story. My goal for the end of the summer was to have the CMO leave the presentation going, “Why aren’t we doing that already?” The Who-What-How framework established by the CMA project allows students to develop a persuasive argument by fully understanding the mindset and demographic of the target consumer, the functional or emotional benefit the product or service is offering that consumer, the tactics to employ to communicate to those consumers, and the ultimate size of the prize from winning that consumer. By breaking each piece down into smaller assignments and memos, students learn to give each component the attention it needs. The ability to hit the ground running The semester flies by, as will an actual summer internship. One of the things stressed during the CMA project is the importance of incremental goals and benchmarks, as well as the importance of gaining stakeholder feedback through the process. One of the most valuable takeaways from my experience as a first-year was the plan I created for myself to use my first week on the job. At which point will your scope of recommendations start to narrow? During what week will you begin to build the final deck? When should senior managers see my research? If given only 10-12 weeks to make a positive impression, you need to use that time wisely. Although second-year advisors are instructed to provide only limited coaching and allow the teams to reach their own conclusions, there is one point I have to stress–take this thing seriously. These projects are like elaborate dry runs and are something other MBA programs do not have; something that gives Kelley students an incredible advantage over the summer. Good luck teams, make us proud! |
