The following post concerns the applicants like me, who haven't received an interview invite.

I wrote to the admission committee to confirm the exact status. They replied that till date they have only reviewed 50% of the applications. They also informed that they will keep sending the invites till the end of November for first round applicants.

Hence all is not lost as yet..

I had my interview yesterday. It was not at all a stress interview. It was more like a conversation and less like an interview. I was told that decisions will be out in 2-4 weeks.

Hoping for the best.

Cheers.

Hi Abhisingla,

Your profile is good and thus you stand a good chance. However, a mere good GMAT and work ex does not guarantee an admit. The overall profile and how well you can display your strengths and convince the adcom plays a vital role.

If you are asking whether applying to Olin makes sense, I would say yes. I hope this helps.

As AdiRedDevil said, your profile is well suited for Olin. It's just that you need to add multiple angles (goals,interests,social work) to your application. Your score and experience is good enough, just made a story and you will be good to go.

Cheers.

Guys, did anyone receive an interview invite recently? Its been more than a month since I submitted my application and still haven't heard back. From the forum it seems like they have sent only a few invites. When should we expect the rest? I am losing hope :(

I would say do not lose hope; there is much time left before they announce the decision of R1. Also, you can contact the admissions committee. They would give you the information you seek.

Re-applicant from last year. Back then my GMAT score was 620.

I probably screwed up my SOP and resume.
