Hi MBAPrepCoach,

Thanks for your reply!

I'm Spanish and looking at previous posts from ARLeeConsulting it seems that it was one of the largest national groups for the class of '18D and '19D.

Nothing that can be done now though. Will just make sure that I'm prepared on the off chance I am invited to the interviews :)

Thanks!

Going by the decision tracker data from the last year, the decisions were reported starting November 20th. You can expect a similar timeline.

Folks applying for R2 Sept20 intake. Have you received the confirmation of complete submission of application from your AO?
I completed my submission end of Oct, post which i got a mail from my AO that within a week of complete submission ( video, lor etc) . Those parts were done by Nov 1 but i still haven't heard from my AO regarding the final confirmation.
Something to be worried about? Should I contact her and enquire?

Applied in R1, denied without interview :) I think it's for the best.

Thanks and all the best to you too!

My plan is to hope one of my other target schools come through. I have been invited to interview at 2 of them, and finished applicant-initiated interviews at 2. I have more chance of success (for my specific career goals) at 2-3 of these schools compared to INSEAD, so I'm not that sad. I just was hoping for a strong 1 year program because of better ROI.

MBA PREP COACH,

Do you think there is any preference for gmat over gre for INSEAD MBA considering INSEAD ( and almost all b-schools ) have started accepting GRE for MBA ? ( GRE Quant is a bit on the easier side than GMAT quant ).
