Some people on this thread are saying that we can expect the first wave of interview invites in the week of September 19th, but that doesn't make much sense considering the fact that the video essay submission deadline is September 21st. I think they would want to review all components of the application (including video essays) before taking a call on interview invites.

I think that interview invites will not be sent out until last week of Sept / first week Oct.


Check last year's thread. Someone reported submitting the video questions the morning of the deadline and receiving an invitation later that afternoon. First round of invites went out the day of the deadline.

I stand corrected. Thank you for pointing this out. I found the relevant info on this link: calling-all-yale-som-applicants-2016-intake-class-of-200065-60.html

Just finished the video essays. I think they went well. Similar questions as other people have mentioned. I was really happy with how smooth the tech was.

On another note I can't believe the median GMAT for SOM jumped to 730...

I actually find this trend quite annoying. Business school applications were always meant to be really holistic, and it's a little disappointing to see that it's becoming a numbers game.

Sorry, I thought you mentioned that you just took the GMAT test. I was just asking how you did. I may have been mistaken.
