Really sorry to hear that and I definitely feel for you.

Who was your A.O? Why would they interview you if your GMAT scores weren't sufficient....?

I applied with GRE scores; they said they liked me but wanted GMAT scores.
Wasted a lot of time and effort doing that and got the interview, then they just rejected me outright.

That's poor form.. if a candidate's GMAT/GRE scores aren't sufficient, he/she should be told that from the start.

Are you perhaps from a more competitive candidate pool?

I'm a white American but have been working in Asia for 7 years.

I really felt like I was led along for a year; would have been much better to receive the ding from the beginning.

I would feel the same way; anyhow, best of luck with your other applications and since you were encouraged to re-apply, you really should.

If you don't mind me asking, who was your A.O?

I did re-apply; this was my 're-application', and I got rejected after the interview.
It was Jennifer Meunier. She was on maternity leave during my entire re-application and someone else called Perrine was filling in for her. She apparently just got back; I called her regarding the result and she barely seemed to know who I was. Wonder if that had any effect.

Sucks indeed. Did you get to interviews the first time?
I have a friend who is going through the same thing. He applied with a GRE of 326 and he was asked to take the GMAT to be considered for interviews.

No interview the first time.
I had almost the exact same GRE as your friend.
Just a weird situation overall, left a bad taste in my mouth.
Tell your friend to be wary.
