This is all very speculative: a) i hardly think gmatclub stats are representative of the total applicant pool b) many schools also interview up until the last week c) last year people were also invited to interview days before the decision. What makes you think something is going on in this cycle?
I think the problem is that many applied to cornell as their "safety" school and it turned out to be more competitive or they didnt work as hard as in other schools apps.
If anyone has official/reliable info stating the admissions process is indeed behind schedule i would surely like to see it. Send me a PM f you do and dont want to post it here.

Gmatclub is filled with people who are 'over achievers' looking to gain as much info about the admit process which is why the admit stats here are always higher than the general applicant pool. So if anything we should probably see more invites here.
Johnson was my #1 school, I worked extra hard on that app, even visited them and had a meeting with ad-comm. Also got a recommendation from an alum.

I do hope you get into Johnson and we all can have a Cazcadilla together!
Gmatclub is hardly an indicator, I bet most people add a few points to their GMAT score, plus you have a lot of IT Indians with high scores, also some people dont bother to update their status and when they are not admitted to a school they delete it, so the next year some dinged students dont show up in the stats. I see the same happening in other schools
Still, my main point stands, I still need to see reliable info addressing a possible delay. i visited Johnson and none of the adcom members mentioned a delay, the school is known to interview up until the last moment. This is business as usual. The admissions office closed on time the day I spent there, had they been behind schedule I bet they would all had stayed working til late.
Some people are saying adcom screwed up and left people out, where are they getting this info from? the only official data released has been an increase in apps of 30% - which I am sure can be handled by the adcom.
Invites are still rolling out, i wish everyone good luck!!
