I hate to be that guy but seriously, those who didn't get an invite (that includes me too), lets just move on?
B-School applications have always been a black box and it is the schools prerogative to invite the applicants it does. If you think that Ross has been unfair to you maybe you should read the stories of who Harvard dinged this year (https://poetsandquants.com/2015/10/25/yo ... his-month/). And I get the feeling - I have been rejected twice by Ross, both the times without an invite, I took the GMAT twice between last time and now and even hired an expensive admissions consultant this time- to say that I am disappointed will be an understatement. But you have to move on knowing that these schools are able to maintain their top quality only by doing what they do. The application process is a black box and you knew that going in. Keep telling yourself this - you have to get into just ONE school.
All those who have invites and those who are preparing for Round 2, I think you guys should take over the discussion from here on. For those of us rejected, let's just wait till December to see what Ross has planned for us.

Well, I don't think you did get it right. Her post says those were the two most common reasons, not the only reasons, so saying they don't look at the rest of the application is an exaggeration. It stings to get dinged (I for one wouldn't mind getting back that $200 from my Yale application), but it's part of the process and probably not useful to take it personally or hold a grudge. Plus there's always waitlisting, and aditya0401 's post about R2 for international applicants: calling-all-ross-applicants-2016-intake-class-of-198487-160.html#p1593153

I am from Brazil and got an invite.
Anyone knows how many invited applicants usually get into Ross?
Best of luck to everyone who got invited
