Mine told me that they would specifically have access to my file. That it wasn't a blind interview. :(

Good or bad?

I would love to know what were the areas that they covered. What are they likely to cover if it's NOT a blind interview?


Don't worry dude...! It was the same with me..They told me they have my complete file, but when i received the phone call my interviewer told me that it was a blind interview !

Specifically, the interview had questions already mentioned in this thread. The interview was friendly but they want to know why you did this and that and stuff.... Mine lasted for 50-55 mins...

I don't feel i would get through !!

All the best to you.

I've got a feeling today....

Maybe Kellogg will call me on Monday. They can see in my app that Monday's my birthday and what a present that would be!! (I'd be okay with an early present too.)

Unfortunately that didn't work for me, my birthday was last saturday.
Checking the website can apparently only result in bad news, so I'm just waiting for a call!

"NJMike" on the BW forums got a call today.

Notable info from the BW Kellogg thread: "the AdCom mentioned that they had only just started making calls"

and "The call came up as "unknown number" on the caller ID"

Hope we get some good news over here soon.

He got "called" yesterday (Thursday). The post saying he got called at 3pm EST was posted 2:39pm EST. I'm still skeptical that admits are going out. Hoping for great news all around next week.

I meant he either got called Thursday at 3 and posted that on Friday at 2:39 or he wasn't called at all.

Ah who knows... I guess I won't really believe that they are making calls en masse until someone here posts an admit.

Why the heck would someone lie on a message board about their admit decision?

Obviously no update for me today either - no call and no change on the website.

Whoops, guess my BS meter was lacking on that one. Must be the anxiety...

How much longer are they planning on keeping us in suspense?

may be he didn't lie...may be he did get the admit and may be he got the call at 3 pm EST/2 pm CST and he posted the reply at 2:39 pm CST and instead said 2:39 pm EST...coz he would have been all happy and excited and didn't care about the timezone anymore...

lets keep our cool...and not get too anxious...whatever has to happen will happen whenever it has to happen....not worth spending too much energy thinking abt it....if we (you and me) have to get the admit....we will ...no matter what....

I believe him, check out his stats on admissions411.com (Mike4MBA), he's the one who listed an Admit on that site.

Also, he applied to 3 schools last year, dinged at all 3 according to admissions411. Even more reason to believe he's not lying.

Guys remember today was the last day of classes...and also the last day of visits. I can tell you that there were a HUGE number of prospectives here today. In my decision sciences class there were like 8 to 10 in the back row...mind you this is a class that typically only has 1 or 2 at most in it since people prefer other more exciting classes. So it would be safe to assume admissions would have been extremely busy today with all that stuff.

Finals are next week so admissions wont have any distractions.
