Well, maybe that Stanford accepts half the percentage that Harvard does and still maintains a higher GPA and GMAT.....Easy enough.[/quote]
Ah - okay. I thought you were saying this based only on response rates in the forum, which didn't quite add up for me. Agree on actual stats but I still wonder if that has to do with smaller class size. In either case - both are fantastic schools.[/quote]
Most definitely has to do with class size...Stanford's is fairly small for top programs, yet they still attract far more applicants than any program near their size. If HBS cut their class in half they would still likely get 7,000+ apps and have a similar admit % to GSB. However, GSB has the smaller class and a crazy high # of apps so they can still pick and choose their students a little more closely. Both are great programs and both admit quite different students (with some overlap)....I myself got dinged at HBS but was interviewed @ GSB (+ Haas & Anderson) and am hoping for an admit.

R1-ers awaiting decisions and R2/R3 applicants planning ahead -- here's some info about application notifications and decision notifications. NOTE: Based on this, it does not sound like any decisions will be released, via phone or otherwise, before the decision notification date (for R1 that's December 12). Good luck everyone!
