Anyone else noticed that Yale seems to look at your two highest GMAT, GRE or whatever scores. When you click on review, there is room for the scores from 2 attempts, so I take it unlike many B-schools that claim to only care about the highest score, Yale must look at both, right?

Here's what they say: "We see and consider all the scores you have received as we review your application, although we credit the highest score you achieved. We do not average scores. "

So I have a problem. I'm about to send in my application (deadline is 5 PM ET) and I notice an error in my resume. I go to upload a new version, and the website just won't get through. It begins to load it, and then just sits there for eternity, never uploading my new resume. Anyone else have a problem similar to this? It's very frustrating right now.

Ya it's doing the same for me with my essays. The website is really slow overall, so it's probably just overwhelmed by heavy traffic. Hopefully it clears up soon...

Hey if you haven't submitted yet, try saving it as a PDF, it will export exactly the way you have it and PDFs are less likely to get viruses attached to them. I saved my essays as PDFs as well.

BTW count me in for Round 1, submitted last night.

That all depends on app volume. When I was applying, they sent out decisions gradually before the decision date. Last year, people complained that they didn't send out decisions earlier, etc.

By when, will applicants get notified about the interview? What percentage of applicants get invited for interveiw and what percentage of interviewed applicants get admitted? I wanna weigh in the probability of success before I hit my credit card with $220 load.

You will have many heart attacks throughout the process. I have a VIP card at my local hospital. Just wait until you get those darn emails with the subject "Yale SOM Admissions" (or any other school for that matter) and it's a newsletter, or an invitation to some event and not an interview request.

You all seem so stressed. Breathe. But I do wish you all the best of luck. I'll be in your position in January.
