Don’t think that’s the reason

They’re prioritizing experience and employability

Job market is ass

They’re willing to comprise lower stats but cannot compromise bad employment reports

The days of getting a 330 gre score / 730 gmat score to guarantee admission are over

I can confirm I applied with a waiver I received at an MBA admissions fair, here in India.

That is again not a concrete argument

People are getting invites from more prestigious schools with similar application.
U gotta look at the interview rate across those schools. Cornell doesn’t interview as many people as Kellogg for example

Cornell interviews a third of applicants

Don't think high test scores ever guaranteed admissions at any T-15 school.

That’s what everyone says before they get in, then they start sending scholarship reconsideration letters 😂
