Hey MiZlaN,

Just curious - are you from Sweden or just living/working there?:)


I'm Swedish but lived abroad 2009-2014 :)


Cool. I just have Swedish boyfriend and was living in Sweden for a while.

Where have you lived abroad?

I am interested about post-interview stats...

On the web-site they are saying they accept about a half of people who interviewed.

But then also saying that they interview around 1000 people and the class is 400. Which means 2:5, not 1:2.

Hi MarieAndreeva,

Some people will be accepted in many different schools.

Good luck!

GSB has about an ~83% yield rate, for a class of 417 they have to admit 502. That's about a 50% success rate post-interview.

Hmmm so.. 1004 total interview invites, over 3 rounds, around 334 interview invites per round.
Assuming 7500 over all applicants distributed evenly across 3 rounds, 13% chance for an invite to interview and ~ 6% chance of getting in..

For those who have followed this process for a few years - anything different with the new dean? E.g. Fewer interview invites? (330 feels high relative to invites to people on this forum, no?) Or interview questions?

This week will be pretty much the last week to receive invites. Any idea if most of the invites have gone out yet ?

Wouldn't agree with this. I know of people who got invited on the very last day (i.e., this year that would be 16-Nov) and ultimately got in.

Don't lose hope :-)

The assumption of equal invites per round probably isn't 100% true.

Round 1 and 2 probably get the bulk of invites, as it's encouraged to apply in those rounds and spots start to fill out. As spots fill up the competition per spot increases. The split might be more like 45:40:15.

So the invite split per round might be more like 451:402:151.

Several people from my company (specifically my office/location) got invites last week at the same time. Officially giving up on Stanford :(

Jole101, if you got invited (and accepted) to both HBS and GSB, what is your pick?:)
