Stanford GSB Class of 2019: Calling all Waitlisted Applicants!

Anyone know acceptance rate for waitlisted applicants with interview?

Also i have a low GMAT score. Do you think retaking the GMAT would help my chances of getting off the waiting list? Also when should I typically schedule the GMAT? When would be a good time to let the adcom know about the score change and also have enough time for preparation?

How's the waitpool crew doing? Are you all staying or anyone accepting an offer elsewhere?

Any updates for this group?

Should we all just safely assume that the acceptance cycle for waitlists is over? between how many of you accepted the waitlist offer?

I did, but no news yet. More or less lost hope at this point...

BigTuna.. You applied anywhere else?

HSW. Back-up is Wharton. You?

@Rajeev007 at what time did you get the call?

BigTuna nowhere else.. applied only to stanford

I accepted my spot on the WL as well. It will be difficult to stay on if it goes into July or August though...let's hope we shine after R3.

Any R2 people who were waitlisted get an email survey? I submitted and got no email confirmation.... when I click the survey link again, it shows up fresh to be filled out. Has that happened to anyone else?

Yep. Filled it out but no email confirmation. I'm not too worried.
