The more time it takes them to decide, the less time and flexibility candidates have in preparation and interview schedules, not sure how this is optimal in terms of getting a strong student body but being slow is what they like then we will go with it lol

I doubt the admissions staff which went on a month long vacation would be interviewing during the Thanksgiving week. I guess its a ding for all those who aren't invited yet and that includes pretty much everyone on this forum.

Hard to believe they dinged 98% of us, while our GMAT average is significantly higher than their admitted average lol

And to think that Olin was a safe school for most of us. This is unsettling. I still expect an invite.

Round 2 deadline (15 Nov) is around the corner and they haven't even sent out round 1 invites. Now that is some efficient work. I'm sure many of us have interviews lined up in Nov and Olin invite is only going to disturb everyone's scheduling/planning. However, we would still take an invite over ding without interview lol

I just had a Skype interview. I appreciate the 'blindness' because the interviewer had just my CV, not the entire application. Good luck to everyone.

I hope you asked them why they are so slow to respond or why they rejected 98% of GMATClub members? :x

Believe me when I say that I was very much tempted to ask about the anomalous situation, but had to bite my tongue.

When I grow up I want to be an admission staff at some schools, seems like easy money for zero work.

I think Olin's admissions committee is following this forum. First they were slow to review applications but then they purposely decided to screw us all gmatclubers for making fun of them lol

With only 4 weeks left for decision date, I think it's safe to assume we got dinged :roll: Or maybe all of us got direct admit without interviews :lol:

Someone who hasn't applied should call and ask. Man, all this waiting, I should have started applying last year.
