We will not accept the new GMAT Focus exam as it will not be available until after this year’s Round 1 deadline. As a reminder, test scores are valid for five years from the test date, so rest assured that your scores from the traditional GMAT exam will continue to be accepted into the future. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UCnbzKuG2q8 Harvard-Business-School-768x432.jpg

OK very sorry - I was a bit sick and missed noticing the date, and it didnt occur to me this page would still be live on the HBS admissions blog https://www.hbs.edu/mba/admissions/Page ... interviews

For reference, the R1 announcement on the "Direct from the Director" Page ( https://www.hbs.edu/mba/admissions/Page ... ector.aspx ) came 1 week exactly before R1 interview invitations. If the target date for interview invitations is Feb 2, we can expect to see the date finalized by a post on the "Direct from the Director" page this Friday. Interview invitations and admissions decisions were posted to applicant portals promptly at 12:00 PM ET.

Did anyone receive the interview invitation for round 2 from HBS?

Last year it was on Feb 1, and they announced the date that they would send out invitations one week before then... (which this year would be today, assuming that they send out invitations on feb 1 this year too). Have been refreshing the website, doesn't seem to have updated yet.

Yeah the "Direct from the Director" page says it will release one batch today at 12pm ET which should have happened But nothing yet on mine Posted from my mobile device

All the best everyone. Please remember to sign up for the free interview prep sessions https://www.airmeet.com/e/8f9c23e0-b359 ... 39bfe1bd2b

Can you share the link - I don’t see it on the site?

Isn’t that page last updated in 2018? I saw that the date on that page is 16th Jan, 2018! Whether they have given any such intimation this year too? https://www.hbs.edu/mba/admissions/Page ... interviews This is the link I am talking about
