Does Owen provide a grace period after the deadline to submit the LOR ?
Yes it does

I in fact received my interview invite before that

I don’t believe they interview everyone, they interview around 70 to 80 percent applications and data shows they admit around 60 percent after interview. I spoke to current students and adcoms that what they confirmed. Decisions are also on rolling basis first they admit domestic students and then internationals. Let’s hope for the best.
i deeply hope my interview counts so much, it was an amazing interview and the interviewer told me about how impressed she was about me several times... we also had a lots of laughs and wow moments

I think most of us would have done well in our interview. In mine we instantly bonded regarding Manchester United and we both are licensed scuba divers. From that point it wasn’t an interview anymore just fun conversation. So, it will come down to your test scores luckily I have 335 in GRE and how much your goals make sense (it is not easy for a IT guy to explain why MBA and why now as most of the times essay’s and interview debrief won’t match or confuses them). If your work experience is not over represented you will have more than fair shot even if you have say only 2 years or work experience.

Interviewers get training prior to conducting any interview, they will make sure the vibe is ALWAYS positive, and they will ALWAYS try to make you feel comfortable, and they will ALWAYS make sure that the interviewed person CANNOT GUESS what would be the result.

I have heard (multiple times) from friends who applied in R1 that they had SUPER AMAZING interview, they clicked with the interviewer immediately, still they were dinged.

Interview is just 1 component out of several, and it does not supersede other components, it only adds up to everything else.

Interviewers are supposed to make the interviewed feel comfortable and not let them guess the outcome.

17th March is the decision date. I don’t think Vanderbilt releases decisions on a rolling basis for international candidates

Is 690 GMAT good enough for Vanderbilt MBA.
I have 5 years of we as a software developer, leading multiple teams and projects.
I also tried my own startup for a year.
I'm Indian engineer from IIT.

Then No.
As you fall in highly represented bucket of Indian IT Male.
You would have been competitive this R1.
I can’t say the same about the next year’s R1 though.

As we saw this R2, I’m expecting more applications for next year. It would be highly competitive, my guess.

This is just based on the limited info that I have about you. There are outliers everywhere, there can be some things/ ’X’ Factors that can compensate for the GMAT in your profile.

Can’t say for sure, there are so many Indians applicants with 740+ score this year, especially males from IT, apparently IT people score higher in GMAT.

If you are an Indian male candidate nothing in your profile compensates for the GMAT score. The competition is just too intense
