Hey everyone, quick observation from the decision tracker of this year and previous year’s, the number of Indians who received an invite is much higher this time around and the average GMAT of those who received an invite is also much higher this year (Higher number of 750s, 760s and 770s) any insights on this trend? intuitively looks like the conversion rate will be worse off this year for Indians but just checking if any of you have any other insights on this

I think some might be interviews that happened due to the guaranteed interview option at Tuck, so maybe more Indians took the guaranteed interview this time around.

Oh! come off it. I submitted my application early which ultimately guaranteed me an interview. Guess what? I wasn’t guaranteed an interview because I obtained an app fee waiver. I didn’t fret because I knew my app was solid. Eventually, I was invited to interview.

I think that was not OP meant. Diversity and having a solid application/GRE/GMAT are two different things.
