Some people wonder how student admission interviewers are different from Adcom interviewers. Here is a Johnson student blog post regarding that aspect https://www.johnson.cornell.edu/About/Life-At-Johnson/Student-Blogs/Post/203898/Musings-of-a-Johnson-Admissions-Group-Member . Hope it helps.

Did anyone else notice a possible trend of interviewing really high GMAT scorers first in this R2 ?

I don't think that's true at all. If you look at a few people who are active on this thread for R2, a lot of them have 750+ GMATs and were still waiting. Although, some people may also be slow to report back when they've received invites. Lastly, surprisingly no one in R2 has reported back about how their interview went. They've started some of them already nes pas?

I see that you have already got thru Johnson. Congrats !! How many days after submitting the application did you get the interview invite.

I'm a R1 applicant and so my invite came on the same day as everyone else in the round (Nov. 5th, the initial notification deadline). I submitted the night before the R1 deadline and so it was 37 days from submission to invite. I think R2 is going a little differently because they received many more applications and trying to arrange interviews with the JAG will be difficult with recruiting and immersions going on.
