Wishing R3 applicants the best! While R3 deadline is a couple of months away, if you're starting afresh then it'd be good to get the standardized tests out of the way so that you could focus on brainstorming and editing your essays as the deadline approaches.

I don’t think so, every recommender gets it maybe.

Yes! Both of my recommenders received it. It’s a common procedure.

I wanted to ask the group members about what they are doing during this period. With almost all schools releasing invites on a rolling basis or in a few days, 17 Feb seems to be very very far away.

Hi. I wanted to connect regarding the Wharton TBD. Please let me know if you’re comfortable discussing it. Thanks a ton!



This user wants to stay Private
1. My slot was later in the day and might have been the last. The Zoom call opened 8 mins before the scheduled time with two 2nd year students and whoever else had joined by then. The 2nd year students announced they were the moderators and went on mute.

2. At the scheduled time for the TBD to start, the 2nd year students unmuted and introduced themselves. They asked everyone to state their name, and the intended major at Wharton, which has been mentioned previously on other debriefs. After, they told us the rules. They also told us they will give us a visual indication that we have 10 mins and 5 mins remaining by holding a paper on the screen. They asked if anyone has any questions before they start the timer.

3. Once the timer is started, there was silence for about 15 seconds before someone piped up and began. Our TBD went well, we came up with a solid campaign and used the last five minutes to brief it. I didn't feel my individual performance was that great. I felt like I didn't add as much as the other participants and had a hard time getting in my comments.

4. After the TBD we go into the breakout room, the 2nd year sets a time on his/her end and asks only 1 combined question: “Why MBA? and Why Wharton?” If you have time left over, he/she will ask you to ask him/her any questions. Once the time is up, you are released into the main room. I felt nervous and rushed during the interview for my one-on-one because of my performance in the TBD. It would have been helpful to have had some quiet time between the TBD and the interview to regroup but we all talked to each other while waiting.
