That's what I'm thinking too, especially since I got an HBS invite today.

I heard wharton is younger-applicant friendly from many admission consultants, so I dont think that would be it.

I would wager that you will get a W invite tomorrow. It is very rare to find someone who is invited to interview with H that isnt invited at W (not a knock on W, but H tends to be more selective within the interview process)

Congrats for HBS - that's already an achievement. I'm not sure however whether your age is any issue for Wharton:

Mark, we are seeing more students coming from non banking and non consulting industries as well as students who are coming to us earlier in their careers, which is a change of pace for us."

That's from the most recent chat on accepted.com

You got an invite from HBS, I think if you spent as much time on your Wharton application, you will get one tomorrow. Cheer up :)

Anyone care to take a stab at how many invites will go out before the deadline?

Funny thing is, I thought Wharton was my strongest application out of all 6 and that HBS was one of my weaker applications. Hopefully I can stop worrying after tomorrow! :)

Sleep well tonight everyone! Tomorrow will be a busy day for us!

I agree, and considering your H interview, this gives me hope there will be more.


JJ, when did you go complete?

so regardless of what the adcom says, it does seem the later invites go out to people who applied later and complete later. I applied 8th and complete 16th, hopefully I have slow readers:)
