Is anyone else preparing for the interview in this forum?

And for everyone else, hang in there, there is still hope until March 8th =P

Can you share your profile?

27yo mexican female, work at CEMEX (a big construction material company) at the corporate finance department, 5 years of experience all of them within the same company and had some changes of position and a big promotion. As for my GPA is a 9.49/10, TOEFL 116 and GMAT 660, not an extraordinary score but I took a pre mba quant course and stated it in my application...went to visit campus in December.

Hi Knopfler, this is not the place to be promoting your startup. Please do not do this on other forums either.

Thanks.

My 2cts - whoever is trolling the livewire feed should consider partaking in the GSB Show if they get in. ;p

In round 2, 28 people reported their HBS invitation on the MBA Livewire.

Stanford is 2 times smaller than HBS, so we can expect 28/2 = 14 people to report their round 2 GSB invitation on Livewire.

10+ people have already reported their Round 2 GSB invitation on the Livewire. In other words, they've sent ~80%+ of the invitations already?

What do you think of my maths?

Actually, there are ~40 R2 HBS invites on Livewire. so applying your logic, we anticipate ~20 for GSB. There are 11 now, so we just passed 50%.

We are almost half way through the month too - so keep eating your favorite food my friend - there should be ample invites to be distributed.

I must have gained 10 pounds from the stress eating of "my favorite food." I think I need to block MBA Livewire, or I may just lose my mind!

I like this math though -- praying we see some more invites next week! At least March 8th isn't so far away...

Seriously mate you are already invited for interview at HBS, Wharton, Sloan and Haas... You already have a very comfortable security margin, so no need to stress out for Stanford GSB. Think of applicants who has not received a single invitation yet!

I wish all the schools were as clean-cut as HBS/Wharton

I think you're too stressed to get an invite mate.

Look at me. Cool as a cucumber. 8-)

No invite either though...
