aniabra: Congrats!! If you dont mind, could you please share your profile.

Congrats to everyone who got invites! No dice for me - have to hold out hope for 1 more week.

Refresh... wait 5 seconds... refresh... cry... WAIT MAYBE IT'S IN SPAM... checks spam... resume crying

Are the invites still coming? Or were they all blasted at once? Time stamps.. anyone?

Going by Dee's post on round 1, you can assume ~90% of the invites went out today--but I'm still hoping for the long, now really long, shot invite on Feb 6th.

Hi, Could anyone who got an invite check if their application status has been modified online? I'm having some trouble with my mail, and would like to double check. Many thanks in advance!

I didn't hear anything sadly, but I wanted to give people a reality check here. Out of 100 R2 applicants, about 25% get an interview and of those 8/9 happen in round I. That means: R2 Applicants: 100 Wave 1 Interviewed invites: ~22 Wave 2 invites: ~3 Total Interviewed: 25 ------ As of 10 minutes ago, our chances of getting an invite were 22%. Now they are 3%. Pack you bags guys - there's basically no hope. ----- About me: Ex banking (bulge bracket), ex VC (top 10 firm) , startup founder who sold his company and now senior person at hot startup 710 Gmat 3.6 top Ivy
