This is nerve wracking  , any thoughts on how the invites are being sent out based on application submission date or random?

The bad thing about the way invites are being sent out is that the group slots are filling up. Many of the days and times are full already. Posted from my mobile device

Do we have any idea of approximately how many of the interview spots are filled up? Is it too early to give up hope? Posted from my mobile device

How worried should be if we haven't heard anything yet? I know it's earlier, but these posts are scaring me esp after not getting anything from HBS :-/

I signed up just 2 days ago and every spot was still open.

How is Wharton's middle 50% range 660-760? so it means 25% or ~200 kids have 660 or lower? that's strange for a Top3 school. Any thoughts?

I'm not sure, just guess... finger cross for next week

I'm assuming that's a reasonable representative of % of invites gone out. Well, for the on-campus interview dates there are about 30 total groups/interview dates shown and only 4 that have not filled up completely. However, as I was probably one of the first to signup for my interview (all dates were available when I logged in 3 days ago), I do not recall there being so many interview dates. My guess is that the Wharton AdComs have added new slots after the first few started to fill up. This leads me to believe that its very possible more invites will go out and more slots will be created.

Did Wharton give a window in which they will send interview invites? If it's a 3-4 week invite window and only one week has passed, it is way too early to think that all of the invites have gone out. Wharton invites people throughout the invite window, not just in the first few days. Sit tight and best of luck.

I think the bulk of the invites will go out in the next 2 weeks, so there's plenty of time for those anxiously awaiting for invites. Best of luck to everyone.
