When I setup my interview, there were a TON of open slots left. I would say only 10 or 15% were filled, so don't start panicking yet.

I need to take my own advice and relax about Chicago GSB. They haven't sent out any invites yet and I am already anxious!

good luck with the HBS interview! I heard from a few students at Haas who applied to HBS and got an interview said that they were just trying to break you down until you had no answer to questions. It was supposedly one of the toughest interviews out of all the top schools. Let us know how it goes!

According to Sandy at the BW forums, HBS is already at the halfway mark for interview invites...

That's what I thought too :-) But apparently, he is a Harvard University (note: not HBS) grad who worked in the ad-com for some top school(s). He is like, the dude on the BW forums. To clarify, I just thought I'll share some information that I found somewhere else. But helg, thanks for reminding me: Information that I bring in here should be credible, and quite frankly, this wasn't. My bad.

No worries. I am anxious about not yet geeting an interview invite too, so I might have taken your post a bit too personal :)

Ya, i read the same post by Sandy and my reaction was pretty much the same as helg's. Sandy does appear to know what he is talking about, but its hard to imagine that they sent 850 invites in less than 10/11 days.

Also, Dee said on her blog that she will post when they are half way through the interview invites. That hasn't happened.

So, I am inclined to believe, just to keep my own hopes up atleast, that HBS is not done with the invites. Hang in there, everyone.
