Thanks a lot Souvik for starting the thread!

Hi Everybody, I did the pre application assessment on the IESE website and I got a reply from the admission office, encouraging me to apply. I am wondering though, do they send out a standard reply encouraging everybody who requests this assessment to reply, or do they discourage people in some cases.

I did the pre-application assessment for HEC (which is actually obligatory), not for IESE, so your mileage may vary on this from me. However, I'd imagine that they do this to discourage people who would have absolutely no chance of making it into the school from applying - saves time for everybody all around.

Thank you very much. I guess that boosts my confidence a little.. I am a Ugandan living in Uganda, and I have failed to find anybody on this forum who is also from sub shaharan Africa... especially applying to IESE. I hope that is a good thing and not a bad one.

Any R1 applicant from india got any invite yet?

I applied in R1 and received an interview invite on 15 Oct. I will be travelling to Barcelona for Open day and Assessment day on 16th and 17th Nov. My profile: 31, Indian Male, IT, 9 yrs, GMAT 690

Just applied to R2 today, literally last minute. Hope everything goes well. Best of luck to everyone!

I applied for second round on Nov 28. Extremely surprised to see hardly any activity at this forum considering IESE is among the top programs in the world. A question for the round 1 applicants, when can i expect an interview invite if the adcom likes my application?

I got my reply in 4 days. However I get the impression that with Xmas you might expect to wait longer. They have yet to send offers to those interviewed in first round.
