Re: Tepper (CMU) Class of 2016 Calling all applicants! [#permalink]
same status, waiting for interview invite. Doesn't look all that bright but you still have to hang on to slim hope.
The interviews are sent based on the competitiveness of the applications, this is what I got to know from ad com director.

Mine is 'Submitted'. No change. I guess we have to wait for another week. Still some hope.

Have you received an interview invite? Mine is submitted too and have not received the interview invite. I wonder if anything will change in the next week.

This is what my understanding is - Your application will be compared with other applicantions and based on that you may or may not get interview invite.

Oh thanks. Something else that I thought it could be would be how competitive the field you're coming from is. Say you're in I Banking, that's more competitive than marketing. Are you sure that's not what they meant? Because I got an interview invite 2 days after the application. Would that mean that they liked my application THAT much more than my competition? Good luck with everything man.

I received an invite 2nd week of November. Online status has been "Submitted" since the date I submitted the application. Nothing has changed - before or after interview.

Honestly, I have no idea. It would not be fair to comment on this.

No invite yet for R1. Decision Date is 16-Dec, next Monday. Looks like a ding now.
App status is 'Complete'.

Anyone else who submitted in R1 and still waiting for interview invite??

Anyone else who is waiting for interview invite? No information as yet. App status is complete.
Decision is due by Monday. Any admit calls yet?
Looks like a ding now. It's time for ad com to consolidate R1 admit list.

While y'all wait for your decisions, here's something random you should take with a grain of salt!

Odds of admission based on GMAT scores!

According to https://www.businessweek.com/bschools/ra ... ellon.html, last year there were 1411 applicants, 32% of which were accepted. We'll round a bit and say that means 452 applicants were admitted. They also publish breakdown of GMAT scores as shown:

We can extrapolate and obtain odds of admission based on GMAT scores.



Again, remember to take this with a grain of salt and good luck everyone!

That's helpful but those aren't really set odds, just observations based on one year of data. If those were actual odds then it would be impossible for anyone with a 0-580 GMAT to get in. That said, it's an interesting guide.
