Well, I don't, but I guess it's definitely before R2 decision day (which will most likely be our decision day too). Or why else would it matter?

Btw, yeah, I'm gonna go to Booth if I don't get into HBS. I already paid the deposit, actually. Did you?

I will pay tomorrow, Booth is a very good school anyway.

Did you guys reply to confirm your continued interest?

Earlier on they had said something about 120 people being on the WL, so 50 out of 120 is great odds! I'm trying to keep myself optimistic.

So just to keep this thread going... apparently some WL-without-interviewers got "released" today.

At this point I don't know if this is good or bad news, or simply irrelevant for the rest of us. This is really frustrating.
Do you think that those people were among 120 waitlisters?
If yes, that means something to us.

No, I am actually 100% sure of the opposite: that the no-interview-WLers were not in that group of 120 people (this was said explicitly by HBS).

I would like to believe, however, that when they say they have 50 spots for "candidates from the R1 waitlist", they are talking about the 120 people, and that no-interview-WLers who got interviewed in R2 are considered R2 candidates for all practical purposes.

Fair enough, we have 40-50% chance.

I got a call today telling me that I'm in. Someone over at BTG also got an admission call today.

I'm blown away.

Good luck to you all.

There 45 new people in facebook group in last 10 days, so it seems we have already gone.

Also we are like 3-4 people in the waitlist and if they sent only a few acceptance i,t would be a low chance for Joe to get an admit but he got and one of his friends so I guess the decisions for waitlisters have already given and communicated.

You know what, no idea if it was just yesterday, or if they've been doing this for the last two weeks (calling people and telling them they're in), although that would explain the facebook count fluctuation.

I got it yesterday, and two other people I've seen on the internet also got the call yesterday.

Don't lose hope, though... what they're doing is so unorthodox, that who the hell can predict their behavior now! Anything can happen at this point.
