It doesn't seem like there have been many Mountain/Pacific time zone admits noted here. There was one from LA yesterday, but I don't think I've seen any more. Let me know if I'm wrong

I know the result. Still I refresh this URL every 3 seconds. My mind goes to my interview and thinks I wish I had answered this differently. Interview is keeping(kept???) me out.

interview kept me out, too. worst interview of my life. cell phone vibrated several times until the interview told me to turn it off. what an idiot i am. tripped over my words several times. just an all-out debacle. such a bummer, too, because i was so excited about this application and i think everything else about my application was good enough to get in.

I'm totally with you...felt like I was a blabbering idiot at my interview. Knew coming out of it that it was going to be a large uphill battle...put too much pressure on myself to be myself...if that makes sense.

wow..sounds like the interview did a lot of people in...
Same here actually...I think I didn't represent myself as well as I usually do :(

That said, I'm sure they can do lots of calls and e-mails (especially batch ones) in an hour!

If it makes you feel any better I don't think my interview went so great either, I definitely rambled a lot and never even got a smile out of her. I didn't send a follow up thank you email because I couldn't remember her name and didn't get her card. I was so focused on how I did that I didn't think to write it down. Later on at the reception current students were asking me who I interviewed with and I felt like a complete idiot not knowing and having to describe what she looked like, thought for sure they were going to mention it to her :oops:

This whole MBA ordeal is a challenging, frustrating, and humbling experience. Of everywhere, I thought I had a decent shot at Ross given numerous factors and a clear commitment/connection to the university. But as I sit here completely helpless at the decision that awaits I can't stop to think why not me? Is it b/c my GMAT didn't break 700? b/c I'm a white male? Is it my career goals? Is it something I said in my interview? Who knows - I could have done something so egregious that I don't even know about that will be sitting right there in my app when I reapply next year even after I retake the GMAT, take on even more leadership roles, take on more team roles, etc. that equates to an instant ding. It's certainly a painful process.

jb88,

I agree. I dont want to give my sob story. I had put in unimaginable effort and hardwork just to be there at campus to give my interview to show them that Ross is my top choice school. I am sure every applicant works hard. I was really in an unique situation and still took time to go there. Anyway time to reflect and move on.

I thought I did pretty well in my interview. Now the interview I just had at Anderson, now that was bad. Granted, I was mad distracted by Ross. I thought I had a good vibe from my Ross interviewer. Now if I got an interview even if I didn't have a chance, that would suck.

I think you can not count the vibe you get from the interviewer. I thought that I impressed the interviewer and I was 100% sure that I am in :(

Now it is Wharton or NOTHING!!!!!!!!!

Anyone from latin america still waiting?

Total silent in Venezuela... Losing hope....

I would prefer an email...

I'm from brazil and heard nothing so far. I know only 1 guy from brazil that got called yesterday (with $).

I just talked to a brazilian guy that has a very strong app (760 gmat and had the 1st glitch). He also didn't hear anything yet.

Do you think it's possible, for some reason, almost all latin american guys receive their answers only at site on the deadline?

Hopefully! Although a Mexican guy already reported a call :|
Anyone with a 2nd glitch that didn't have a call yet??
One hour left :cry:

For me, I think this was the best application, including interview. I really connected to my interviewer. I think being an Indian techie and that too in 30s did me in. Have decent GMAT (mid 700s and AWA 6.0) and GPA etc. I think the game is over for us who are still waiting for that magic call or email.

Your interviewer is just a 2nd yr student. Adcom isn't gonna let them make or break you. Well, maybe break you.

Still waiting in Canada… not fun
What was the discussion about the financial aid tab? I have a whole section on Financial Aid in my wolverine profile… not sure what that means…
Thanks

I find it hard to believe that no Canadian has been admitted (at least on this thread) in R2.

Any Canucks with admits out there? Please chime in...

Totally agree. One of the most nonsensical questions you can get asked by friends/family/co-workers is "how did your interview go?"
WHO KNOWS?!!!
My interviewer at Ross was totally poker faced. I even tried to whip out my most impressive stories and achievements...the guy never cracked a smile, frown, lifted eyebrows, nothing! At the conclusion of my interview I had NO IDEA how it went. As of about 2 hours ago I assumed it went horribly but apparently it was acceptable after all.
