Good luck to everyone! Keep hope alive.

Congrats sfmba2011 and thanks for sharing full stats!

Debunks my hypothesis that they read apps based on industries. Maybe they are onto the re-apps now?

I think I should burry my hope. I mean, their final decision is at the end of March. So, it is hardly manageable to schedule an interview, submit and make a decision from now on. The process will simply take too long, I guess it's over.

Thanks for this update! Although very late in the game, gives us a bit of hope. I'm also a reapplicant.

I know of people who have been invited to interview *days* before the decision date and been accepted. GSB will keep inviting people right up until the last minute.

There's no point losing hope at this stage. Given that the process is almost entirely opaque and that there's no discernable batching of invitations by geography/industry/age etc then nothing can be gleaned from the timing of your (pending) invitation and our applications have just as much chance now as they did when we first applied.

Good luck all!

EDIT: for clarity

Thank you Ramsay for keeping our hopes up!

When I visited Stanford, I met a guy who didn't get his interview invite until March 13th or so, so it's still not too late!

My prayers are with you all :)

just to keep the hope alive a bit...at the bottom of the int invite email there is a list of FAQs...here is an exerpt regarding the timing of invites:

6. Is there any significance to when I received my interview invitation?

No, the timing of your interview invitation reflects only the order in which your application was reviewed. Interview invitations are extended from about a week after the round's deadline until about a week before the round's notification date, because it takes the Admissions Committee that entire period to review all applications thoroughly.

So there is still some time not to mention the fact that if you get an invite late it is no indication that you are a relatively weak candidate.
