So I just got a loooong confirmation email from Berkeley - basically saying, hey, thanks for applying R2, we ain't even gonna LOOK at your app until late January.
Ah well.

Yup! Be prepared to wait for a really long time. I thought Berkeley was kidding when they said they would take 6-8 weeks to send out interview invites. They really must be reading those applications. Oh well! I hope it's worth the wait.

Yup I got the same email for R2. Thanks for your application, we're not inviting for interviews for another 2 months. So does this mean that the Super Saturday is just for R1? Or do they do a seperate one for R2?

Kryzak, I'm not worried about you. You bring a lot to the party - they're gonna LOVE you.

Clobo, my nose is firmly planted in my other R2 apps, so that's taking my mind off the whole waiting thing. Well, a little, at least...

well, I started my Kellogg essays yesterday (the app is done). Cut and paste from my other R1 essays, I think I have the material for all 5 essays. It just needs lots of "massaging" to gear towards Kellogg.

I'll try to do that to keep my mind off Haas...

Don't mean to discourage anyone here ... but I got the invite!

Looks like I have to travel for this one though ... the scheduler is not showing my country.

Discourage?! No way! Good karma for gmatclubbers, I say! Congratulations, BCC!

CONGRATS BCC! You're the first Gmatclubber this year to get an invite! Hope more comes out!

Like uphill said, it's encouraging to see *someone* got an invite here. =)

Congrats and good luck w/ the interview...I'm still hoping to receive an invite, I'm an expat based in Asia. Anyone from Asia receive an invite yet? Where you located BCC145?

I applied in R2 and just received an email saying my application is ready for review. I'm really surprised because yesterday (or the day before) I got an email saying it would take at least 4 wks for them to get all the materials together and then another 4 before they start reviewing apps. Just interesting....
