Hey Souvik,

True that. Fingers crossed.

No invites to anyone on Tuesday and Monday? Weeks are just going by..!

I'm a bit confused with the Decision Tracker. Have only Americans and Indians got invites yet?

I sense that out of the few applicants who are on GMATClub, most don't report their updates. Which means that the number of invites must be much larger than what it looks on Decision Tracker.

Which then makes it unlikely that there is going to be a second wave of invites. A trickle till the first week of November maybe.

Any thoughts on this by old-timers here?

Most colleges follow the 4-6 weeks format of rolling out invites. I'm sure I missed out on the big ones so I am really looking forward to UCLA

It seems to me that a lot of people are in the same boat. Not a lot of people have more than a couple of invites.

Yes I know my main point was that it seems like most people have less than 2 max except for a few notable exceptions. So my gut tells me that there will be more to come. The wait is hard.

Apparently that's what keeping me on the positive track. I have 3 colleges to prepare for. So lets see. Also today no one has reported any invite(I am hoping atleast 75% people report), so i really hope there is more to come.

I don't think so. McCombs for instance has somewhat 150 applicants on forum. However in their report it is stated that last year there were more that 4000 applicants. So I am totally sure that people from the forum are about 10% of the applicant pool. Maximum. R1 should be the biggest in terms of the number of applicants since scholarships, visas and so on. So I am sure that it is at least ten times more applicants out there than those who report on GMATclub.

Well R2 is the largest in terms of applicants usually for all schools including Anderson.Anyway there is no point making such extrapolations.Lets wait and watch.This forum is just giving me more anxiety.

Check ClearAdmit's livewire from last year. I don't think there's a set deadline, so just sit back and relax.

Has anyone had their interview yet? If so, how did it go?

I’ve had my interview. It was very conversational, relatively laid-back — I was talking to a second-year MBA student who mostly asked standard questions about my resume/background/goals/why MBA, followed by a couple of questions about community and fit. It was very relaxed, and I enjoyed talking to this person!
