oh ive asked too fast, found this online for those interested:

In recent years, INSEAD has invited 40-50% of the applicant pool to interview, ultimately admitting 50-60% of those in this “preselected” group.

so it's a 50/50 after the interview

Haven't heard back from EL. I think there was 1 invite I saw from EL that was posted on the forum, but I guess it was for someone who applied quite early (not sure). Guess we'll have to wait it out!

Since some have GMAT scores and others don’t, i think that for this round of invites they will not consider the GMAT to be fair to everyone. I mean how can they penalise someone for a low score and call for invite someone without a score. It doesn't make sense.
Before the final decision though, all are required to have a GMAT score.

I've been thinking about this too. Someone with a GMAT score, albeit low vs. Someone without a GMAT score isn't a fair comparison. Ideally the interview decisions shouldn't be taking the score into account, but we have no clue how this would work.

INSEAD says the scores are required upon admission, not during interview stage, so invites should be extended for people who did not submit scores, to be in line with what they indicated

Absolutely! I don't think there is any doubt in that. They will consider applicants without a score. I think the question is for applicants who submitted a score. Will their applications be evaluated with the score or without? Since, evaluating with score is not fair, considering that applicants without a score could score on both ends of the spectrum.

Don't overthink it ? we are still 2 weeks away from the deadline, so plenty of time to hear back. I do understand that the wait is hard, but I see that you have an admit from Tuck, and that's brilliant! So hang in there.

Hi. I got similar feedback from my AO when I reached out to her with this query.

Hi all, I just got the interview invitation:) I am Asian, applying from France (don't know if it has any impact on the application review process). My application was sent on the last day May 20th, without GMAT score. My AO is AN.

Congratulations! Would you mind sharing details of your AO. That would probably help us anxiously waiting ?
