Yeah, I think you should remove anyone that has less than say 25 posts from the list. They aren't actually GMAT Clubbers until they are around for a few weeks. Considering 100% of the people you added in the last 7 days received interview invites, then that would certainly skew the results. No invite for me guys, not sure what to do going forward. :|

I agree with rhyme and jb32, only regular GMATclubbers should be on the list otherwise the stats will be very skewed.

"status = complete"...so it means a ding in waiting for tomorrow. Submitted on 10/15.

Reapplicant from R2 (with Interview) last year. Wonder whether this application was not worth even an interview 2nd time around :(

All the best guys !!!

It ain't over till the fat lady sings. You guys never know - they were bogged down this year with so many applicants and could very well send invites in the morning. Hang in there!

I totally don't get Booth's interviewing qualifications. Seems like random, not to say that people didn't deserve it. It's hard to see where the line is.

It may appear random because we don't know applicants' stories outside of GMAT/GPA/Age/Industry. All that will in itself only take you so far.

I completely agree. The posted profiles are very limited.

Seems fair to me, although I wasn't a lurker - I found the board after getting my invite and reading on BW that people had been talking about getting invites on other boards. Seems that other boards were this one...

I do wish I had known about you guys before. I think there's a couple things I would have changed for sure...
