dang the amount of posts in this thread exploded

Berkeley-Haas does NOT give out dings until the decision deadline. Depending on the interviews and final admit lists, others can be placed on waitlists.

Hey folks, I just wanted to highlight this opportunity to chat with current students over winter break. There are a lot of locations available. Not sure whether it's new but I hadn't seen it before now.

https://mba.haas.berkeley.edu/admissions ... dates.html

Anyone planning on attending? It'd be cool have a show of force and meet some fellow gmatclubbers!

Back to the R2 application...

I plan to be out of town from 19-the 1st, so if they call during that time, does anyone know what happens in this situation? Are they flexible in scheduling a meet after I come back or do I have to find a interviewer in the other city?

I'm having a hard time staying in love with Haas when I did Berkeley undergrad and Wharton West is so close by with a more rigorous Executive MBA curriculum and a better name. I've audited some haas classes because of people I know there, and Wharton students just seem far more committed. Anyone with experience to the contrary? Or thoughts as to what I'm overlooking here?

Not quite sure what you mean by "far more committed".

Also hard to compare Executive MBA program with FTMBA program. You'll have to compare the Wharton West with the Berkeley-Columbia Executive programs to really have an apples to apples comparison.

The FT program is not just about curriculum and academics. It is equal parts academics, leadership/experiential learning, and getting to know your classmates well.

Berkeley undergrad (even Haas) is VERY different from the MBA program, as any Berkeley undergrad will tell you (including myself - EE major - and my classmates who were Haas undergrads).

With that said, it's truly up to you on what you want to get out of an MBA program. If you are there purely for the curriculum and academics, then an Executive MBA or a part time MBA may be better for you. If you want the full experience of academics, hands on experience, and build a network of very close friends in the future (plus an internship in the middle), then FTMBA is for you.

BTW, the Executive MBA programs do require more work experience, usually upwards of 10 or more years (on average).

Hope that helps!

Hey everyone.

I dropped by Haas yesterday during my visit to the Bat Area. I was told by the admissions office that I had been
invited to an interview but my invitation had not been sent out.

They asked if I could conduct the interview on campus tomorrow. I would have love to but I had an early flight to
Chicago. Despite the fact I was not able to interview on the spot, it was still a pleasant surprise to learn that I have
progressed.

I am waiting for my email and will coordinate an interview when I get home.

Good luck everyone.

PS : I submitted my application on the deadline date.

Seriously. Does Berkeley interview that few people where barely anyone would hear for Super Saturday? I'm not quite sure what to make of this, if anything.

It has been very quiet on the BW thread as well. Strange, especially compared to the Sloan threads which have been going nuts lately and are in a similar point of the admissions cycle.

Also, thx for counting me in for Rd 1. I submitted 10/19. Still waiting...

For those waiting for Super Saturday invitations, this thread has been disturbingly quiet lately.

Seriously. Does Berkeley interview that few people where barely anyone would hear for Super Saturday? I'm not quite sure what to make of this, if anything.

It seems like there's two scenarios:

1. GC and BW forum members are doing terribly this year and many of us are screwed.
2. Berkeley hasn't sent a good number of their invitations yet.

While I clearly prefer option 2, I also think it seems more likely. The people on these forums are highly engaged applicants; it would strike me as odd if such a high percentage didn't even get interviews.
