I couldn’t find anything on this ... You mean R1 = EA?

I think he/she meant about the guaranteed interview for R1 which works like open period. Only diff being the decision comes on R1 deadlines.

Anyone still waiting for interview invite from Tuck? I know website says invites can be send 1-2 weeks before deadline but looking at clearadmit/decision tracker from last year, seems like most invites were out by Oct end. Anyone knows (reapplicants maybe?) do they send out invites even in November

I submitted my app on 20th and I am still waiting for an interview. Do they not send it till mid nov?

Not sure, i couldn’t see much update after 3rd November on clearadmit or GMATClub decision tracker from last year

SMTV , Still awaiting interview

A new Tuck Interview Debrief has just been posted: https://gmatclub.com/forum/tuck-194/interview_debrief.html#debrief-1969

I interviewed on 25th of October with a second year student. It was perhaps the toughest interview I had yet. Almost all questions are personalized. For example, instead of asking "tell me about an challenging team experience" he would ask specifically "tell me about the the challenge you faced during project XXX", and several times he asked my motivation behind not just the jobs I chose but also the projects I did. So just know your story/resume really well and be prepared to think on your feet Tuck interviewer is the only one I didn’t hear back from my thank you note. Trying not to think too much about it I also advise against adding your interviewer on LinkedIn. Would like to hear people’s thoughts on this. Just feel like this might look unprofessional

We just had to follow the train CJ !!

Why do you feel / think this might look unprofessional? It seems like a normal thing to do, especially in case you had a good conversation and want to maintain contact with someone
