Have any November round applications heard about interviews? My app went "under review" a few days ago.

The adcom at Cornell has stated that the percentage of applicants interviewed this year is approximately the same as last years'. I guess, the gc guys (and gals) just did a great job which led to an 80% invite.

"same as last year's"...which is what % of applicants, 50?

From what they told us at an info session:

Approximately 50 percent interviewed. Approximately 50 percent of those interviewed eventually accepted.

I think that GCers tend to skew slightly higher than the schools average simply because we're a self selected group. Not all applicants are as neurotic as we are =]

I just read on the Ask Johnson Admissions BW thread that less than 25% of interview invites have gone out for R2 applicants, but they are going to get more out before the new year.

Just a clarification on the November round. I read through the BW thread that you were talking about. This was posted today by the Johnson staff:

"We plan to start scheduling interviews for R2 applicants next week. We'll schedule as many as we can through the end of 2008 and continue into 2009. The percentage of R2 applications that we've reviewed so far is less than 25%. "

Sorry for the incorrect info...thanks for updating it.

Anyone else's still say received? Now, I'm worried my app is missing something.

The application process has definitely shortened a couple of years from my life. Small things make you freak out so much.

Don't worry about it. They said only 25% of R2 apps have been reviewed. In R1 peoples status changed to under review throughout the round. Mine changed a few weeks after some other people had already gone under review and there were others that went under review well after me.

I think mine was about 10-12 days before an invite. The amount of time has definitely varied, based on postings on this board.

I have a feeling that the floodgate of admits is going to open on Monday. Make everyone sweat it out for one more weekend.
