RD review seems to be right on time as last year, with last year review beginning Nov 17th.

If this year follows last, it seems like all apps from September and earlier should be getting interview invites in the first week of December.

Here is to us getting an interview...

bSchool2018 and d2D13 - I understand how you guys must be feeling, one of my close friends is in a similar situation.

I think there really is a difference in the way schools look at candidates. The people who make the cut at (say) Booth and Columbia may be very different from one another. So don't carry the baggage of other schools' rejections into your Columbia interview (here's hoping!) or your R2 apps.

TL;DR - chin up! All the best! (Y)

Hey guys,

did anybody have Skype interview with CBS Admissions team member? or if you read a post in this thread, can you please give me a link to that post?

I was wondering if there is anyone who had Skype interview and got their feedback submitted or even already heard from Admissions about the final decision?


Thanks!
Good luck to you all. :wink:

Hey guys,

Is there anybody who had an interview on November 11th or after this date, and got feedback submitted and/or acceptance (or denial) email? You may have posted it already but if you have 2 mins, please post it again, i'm doing a little research and it will be a great help :)

I'm not sure how long does it take for an interview feedback to be submitted. I saw some of the posts and it's generally 2-3 days post-interview. and then, from what i read on this thread, average 7-8 days to get the final answer (acceptance/denial).

Thanks a lot

I did a quick feedback submission analysis yesterday from 20 data points. The average time to submit was about 3.1 days, the median was 1.

16 of the 20 submissions were within 3 days or less, 2 took 7 days, 1 took 8 days, and 1 took 17 days.

I didn't include myself because my feedback hasn't been submitted yet, but I'm on day 8 right now (interviewed 11/9).

The website says that interviewers are supposed to submit within a week, though.

I haven't done an analysis on how long it takes to receive an acceptance/deniall after submission, but I believe it was generally no more than a week.

Do you mind sharing when you get your interview feedback submitted? :)

My interview was on 11/6 and feedback posted the same day. I haven't heard anything one way or the other, any thoughts?

Does it usually take the full two weeks? Anyone else waiting on post-interview results for more than ~13 days?

Hey Engr2012, got done with my interview today, after frantically searching for an available ambassador, which seemed far too scarce. Usual questions, but really really grilling. The most challenging interview i've had until now. Informal, but not friendly. A real man of character, this old bloke. I hope he submits the report soon now.

Wat abt u?
