Hello, all:

I just found this forum. As for the slides question, anybody knows if the notes below the slides will be printed out for adcom to read or just the Powerpoint slides themselves?

Thanks ahead! It really confused me after reading the requirements


Excuse me, what notes??? I've just checked my application proof and there's nothing below the slides.


In a powerpoint, you can add notes below slides that will print out in a certain view. I do not think the Chicago admissions people see any notes someone may have added. Though I could be wrong.


Sorry, I had no idea of that kind of note.

fyi i think they said they arent going to look at the notes, everything has to be on the slides - i think last year you were allowed to use slides but no longer

is it safe to say we all think a very small amt of invites wento ut today?

Congratulations to both the persons who got invited so far.. To me, it looks like a slow start on the part of Booth adcom in inviting people. Hopefully, they will send many more invites over the next couple of days and that list will include my name as well :) .

Hi all,

Not a frequent poster but I got my invite earlier today as well via email. Once I checked my application, all the way to the end where it shows your materials received, fee received, etc., I saw a status update and a link to set up interview times.

I submitted my app a day before the deadline.

Must admit, I was baffled and the first thing I did was throw my arms up in disbelief, and then quickly checked to see no one saw me. I hope the same happens to you all!!

On to the interview!

Looks like those who applied the day before the deadline (10/11) got the invites yesterday. If Booth is indeed proceeding with a Last In - First Out progression, wonder when those who submitted on D-Day (10/12) will get their invites. Worse, I submitted my app on 10/06 :( . Somewhere at the bottom of a considerably large pile?

I doubt that they would follow a strict last in first out procedure. That would have the effect of punishing those who sent in their applications earlier. I also read an interview that Kurt gave and there seemed to be the possibility of having multiple people read your profile before having an interview invite sent out.

I think that there are still a lot of invites that need to go out. By my observation there are a lot of qualified people in this forum that also have high GPAs and GMAT scores who have not been invited to interview.

Completely off-topic, but..
I am somehow visualizing someone dressed as "The Joker" from "The Dark Knight", sitting in the ad-com office, saying "And HERE.. WE.. GO..."

Just that instead of something dramatic ensuing immediately, the Joker gives a crazy smile and decides to release just 5 interview invites on Day 1 to make the suspense more sadistic and more killing...


Ok, so now I need to really start focusing on my work and quit thinking about Booth invites!!! :roll:

I had a bit of a conniption when I woke up this AM. Had an email in my inbox from Booth with the subject line, "Join us in Chicago for an Admissions..." and was then severely disappointed to open it and see that it was just a generic invite to a Booth Admissions Reception on 11/17. Seemed like a cruel joke by admissions team.

The actual invite coming a couple of hours later was a nice pick me up after that cruel cruel fake-out...
