Just checked my status online. Rejected. Indian based out of India. Before questions start coming in, no email received notifying me of status update. I just checked my status online.
Move on Onechance, I guess we've come across in several threads... How's your R2 application results up to now?
I also checked my status, which still says "All the required elements of your application are complete...blarblarblar". Hope I have good news today.[/quote]
Have we? Either way, it's not been too good for me. Rejected without interview at HBS, rejected after interview (invited) at Tuck and still on the Ross waitlist from Round 1 (after being interviewed).
I put in everything I had into the Kellogg app and can certainly say that my essays here were my best work out of all the apps. That may well have been a function of Kellogg being the last app I submitted. I don't know. Also, I don't come from a traditional Indian pool (education and work experience) and I saw that in R1 1/2 Indians from this pool were made offers by Kellogg. That could've been a reason. It's hard not to be disappointed with this one since Kellogg is where my heart was set...I love being in the thick of things and in the midst of people. For what it's worth, my interviewer just didn't care to listen when I brought out these aspects in the interview and strangely, for the most part, tried to convince me that going out of India at the moment is not wise!
Anyway, waiting to hear from Duke and Booth (was interviewed at both). I really hope one of them comes through. I have interviewed at every place I applied to (with the exception of HBS) and have nothing to show yet apart from an ISB (in India) admit. 6 out of 7 interviews and yet such a low final hit rate. Increasingly I think I suck at it.
All the best to you.[/quote]
Cheer up dude, quite amazing that you got 6 interviews out of 7 apps . And I'm sure Duke and Booth will appreciate you. I am also waiting for Duke, so wish us best of the luck![/quote]
And I'm sure Duke and Booth will appreciate you.
>> Amen to that.
Thanks, Bonnie. Are you an Indian based out of India?
Here's wishing both of us the best of luck..
