Me in WL. I've one thing to mention. Though it might sound good don't loose your heart or something like that but if someone applied UNC, UVA, Ross etc and when you find you are not in UNC , the confidence level be lower for the other schools preparation. You need to re-plan your selection of schools. For me after this I probably not submit my apps in Ross R2


it is weird thing and definitely a loss in confidence... i didn't receive my interview invite from Georgetown and I had high hopes in getting an invite at least but it is what it is. I did contact the director and she said WL applicants get into same pool as next round folks so there will be no discrimination....which is a good thing i hope... But you should try Ross though.

Yes , ideally I should. But I was thinking otherwise after the result. Ross , profile wise or rank wise better than UNC. So WL in UNC logically concludes ding in Ross and I've yet to receive an interview call from Darden , which reinstates the fact. Probably I should think about Simon. And WL means you can't expect to get scholarship that will make life more difficult for an international.

Hey Angel2009.. i came across this article on MBACrystalBall's website.. you might be able to identify with some of the points written there.
https://www.mbacrystalball.com/blog/2010 ... -strategy/
i wish you all the best but sincerely feel that you should give Ross a try.. you never know !!
Its better to have tried and failed than not to have tried at all ( cheesy yes but true!!)

what is your stats if you do mind sharing? I dont think you should change your mind based on one school's evaluation of your profile though. The article is pretty good but in the end there is only 1 thing you can control -the essays. GMAT retake is a bit late at this point for RD2 especially if you want to prep for it again. Reccomendation letters is more or less out of your hands unless you go the unethical route of feeding "answers" so the only thing left is really the essays imo.

Hi, everyone -

I'm a 1st year at UNC Kenan-Flagler. If you have questions about the program or even about the social side of school, feel free to ask. I can't answer any questions about candidacy, but I can definitely give you an insider's perspective on the experience here so far.

This forum helped me a lot last year, so I'd like to give back.
