This is a poorly executed joke and there’s no need to make others anxious. Decision date is still far out in December and you claim to have been accepted. What’s that supposed to mean?

My interview was October 9th, 2024.

This isn't a joke. I applied the first day they were accepting applications. Had my interview on October 9th, 2024, and I just got the call today that I was accepted.

Do you have any proof to back up this claim?

His decision tracker shows Weekend MBA. Not full-time MBA. So a bit misleading on his end.

How is this misleading? Is this the full-time MBA discussion?

Definitely the wrong word choice on my end. Though, congratulations on the acceptance! Just wanted to reiterate what Jimmy had said that people do get anxious here on any updates. Forum is for all full-time, part-time, weekend, exec, online, though majority are geared toward FT. So unless explicitly stated, people will think you were FT and raises eyebrows (as you saw with Jimmy’s response). Regardless, I was just clarifying for others - apologies if it came off wrong

I appreciate your response. I am not a typical MBA candidate, and I only applied to one school (Ross). I haven’t been using this site as much as people who are search for FT opportunities. In the future, I will denote my program as well as school when I reference it so there isn’t any confusion.

Hello. A little help here please. Whenever I access the interview link sent (on my mobile) and try to click on the “resume” or “schedule interview”, I’ll be logged out. I have repeated this process several times but it seems like there is something I am not getting right. Can someone kindly direct me? Also, please is it compulsory (or advisable) to match with an interviewer in your region? In the event that the slot available in your region is not convenient, can you match with someone in another region?
