I doubt we'll see any invites today. They skipped Monday after sending them Friday.

As the clock ticks..My ambivalence deepens...a part of me says ''This is it'', its all over... you need to keep your head straight and start preparing to re-apply to the next class....yet a tiny part of me ...that small voice..sending up silent prayers....says ''it's possible'', that voice is hope, a tiny flicker of light waiting to burst into a roaring inferno...will it die unsung, lonely and lost in this uncertain wind? or will it burst forth, roar in its fury and become a legend? only time will tell.

Guys, I just have to say this thread is increasingly depressing. If you'd let a business school define you or the magnitude of your future 'success', that is sad. If I were an adcomm I'd want a incoming student with enough character to make it happen for him/herself. Do I want to get in? Yes. Definitely - I'm reapplying this year after having been waitlisted w/ an interview last year. Reading this stuff helps remind me not to let it tear me apart.

stand up, walk away from your computer, and get laid tonight.

you'll care a little less about business school, and feel a lot better about life - trust me :)

Unable to avoid thoughts about re-applying. Still hopeful though.

I've read Dee's blog but one question out of curiosity - anyone applied on Jan 10/11th got interview invite?

Thx

I suspect the bulk of interviews have gone out.

We're just grasping at straws now!

I'm going to focus on the one interview I do have so far...

I agree--I too think that most of the invites have already gone out.

Well looking at it based on this forum, we know for sure that 52 or 53% of the invites went out on Friday. It looks like some went out yesterday, although probably not at the same volume as Friday, so I'd estimate possibly the percent of invites sent may have gone up to like 70% or even less. And it looks like one person got an invite today on the forum, so I would say very few were sent today.

That still leaves about a third left that will most likely be sent out before the 16th, probably on Friday. Or maybe I am just kidding myself...

One of my friends was admitted last year. His interview invite came on the last day, and he was a very strong candidate. There is still hope for those of us that have not been invited yet.
