Just to help boost confidence, whats the consensus of Pr(admit|interview)? I have seen figures ranging from 0.6 to 0.78.

It depends, this year the numbers are much lower. In my region they are about 0.4 and I guess it is the same in other places (looking at GMATclub it is 10% from 25% - very much the same). This is a very bad year from our point of view.

Would you please elaborate? Links to these data?

Also, GC trend (25 down to 10) isn't a concern to me since this group is heavily biased for international applicants and self-reported.

Edit: Calling All Apps Sloan 2012 had an invite rate of 20% and 13% admitted giving a Pr(Admit|Interview) of 65%.

I am international student, so it is not biased for me... :)
There are about 4000+ candidates and about 340 spots, so the final number will be less than 8.5%(but you are right that I do not know what is the initial percent of interviewees). Moreover, a lot of candidates got waitlisted so you are also compete against those students.

I heard nothing back after my interview until I was accepted.


I'm on the East Coast. Is there any rhyme or reason to the order they call admits? Like, do a 9am sweep from EDT to PDT to Asia?


Does MIT call admits just as Stanford does? as in before the online decision is posted ? or do they do it after the fact like HBS?

None of that matters when we're talking Pr(A|I).

The results have started coming in.

I'm in India, and I just got a phone call from MIT to let me know I was admitted into the program.

So hang in there and hope for the best!
