Pant-pooping here! It's a very long shot for almost everyone, but worth a try.

Profile: 710 GMAT, 6.5 years work experience (3.5 in Lat AM + 3 in Africa), several extracurriculars in Africa and home.

My only confort is that my HBS essays were my best so far (I prefer shorter essays to longer ones). Let's keep this thread updated on the interview process.

Cheers. L.

Looks like we have diverse backgrounds across the board. I myself have worked and lived on 4 continents too.

Hopefully, HBS sees this as a positive differentiator for all of us.

Godd luck guys!

Let's just hope we're not a "representative sample" of HBS applicants.

So anybody have any idea when we should start getting anxious (i.e. when will interview invites start rolling)?

Thanks.

You still have some time to relax lepium. I heard that they start coming in around the first week of February.

Up until then, I'm trying to fill my time with business trips.
