Any updates/invites today? So quiet!
I spoke with GSB earlier today and they told me that many went out by then. In the conversation they told me that a "few" can still go out until march 4th and lets put "many" as "majority" for the record sake.
What was the context of your call? Did you just cold-call them and ask about invitations?
I am honestly a little bit suspicious/surprised, as my understanding is that admissions offices don't usually talk to candidates about these things over the phone. My understanding is that if you're a waitlist candidate, AdComs will talk to you about your particular case, but yours is LITERALLY the first report I've ever seen of a candidate getting an admissions office staffer to release information about the process as a whole. You'll forgive me if I wonder if you're BSing people, especially because you've taken a negative/contrary tone on this thread for quite a few pages.
So, ILoseUGain, spill the beans: what's your deal? Are you waitlisted from R1? Are you even an applicant? Where are you located? What's your age/WE? On the call today, were you just willing to beg for info? How did the call go? Who did you speak to? What was the tone/context? Did you have to press for the info or did they just volunteer it? Inquiring minds want to know, especially since you don't have any applicant profile listed here and haven't been a member for very long. Where else did you apply? How have things gone for you so far at other schools? Where are you interviewing? You also don't appear to have used the forum to prep for your GMAT. 100% of your posts are in this Stanford thread as well, from end of January until now. Suspicion warranted, in my opinion. My troll-alarm is going off.
