whoa. Everyone who applied has an invite.

Collegesenior's the only one who hasn't got the email yet. I am sure he will get 1 soon.

Man.......is it just GMAT Club or is it really hot in there....
Just a few pointers...is U Chicago really dishing out the invites like crazy or are we just caught with the cream here..
It is becoming increasingly confusing on how to view this invite....which leads to more confusion on how hard to prepare for the interview...
Throw some light guys...My thought is that GMATClub is the reason for a highly skewed statistic... 14/15. we are talking about more than 90% here.

I am surprised collegesenior hasn't gotten an invite considering he got one from HSB. It would be amazing to get a clean sweep, it would be even better to have us all get in.

Admissions411 is only showing about a 40% invite rate, we are flying high here. C'mon collegesenior, I'm hoping he got an invite and just hasn't seen it yet b/c he is in India.

More people need to add themselves and keep admissions411 updated to really make it useful. There are half as many profiles there this year...I only wish apps were down that far.

I just checked admissions411 and some kid claims to have been accepted by chicago during rolling admissions. I hope he just clicked the wrong school and meant columbia, cause no way anyone knows yet.

Does GSB have deferred additions from last year?

I thought that it was very strange, I went there to update my profile and saw this...

I am sure its a typo by the kid...someone commented about it on his profile.

The amazing thing is all the interview invites are high GMATs except for the females (only sub 700s w/ invites). Then again there is like a 730 mean/median of the profiles on that the site. I think there are only a few sub 720 invites on for guys.

Maybe he meant the Chicago GSB part-time MBA, which has rolling admissions (I think)

Lets hope our luck with invites translates to acceptances...and our R2 brothers (and sisters) have as much good fortune as we have had.

just got the invitation today.

Is is worth it to fly to Chicago for the interview? I am willing to if it will increase my chance of getting in. But at the same time, I rather interview with an alumni than an adcom so that it might be more informal.
I am in the SF Bay Area.

Not sure whether an On Campus would increase the chances. I will do Off campus because I'm very far from Chicago Campus, If I had the option to interview with GSB staff at London, though I would fly there.
