Did anyone from Eastern Europe get an invite? A few pages back no one said they did, but maybe someone got one in the mean time?

Last couple of days for invites...
I'm crossing my fingers, walking my neighbor's dog, feeding stray cats and giving money to each homeless I see.

Good luck everyone!

Seconding the question of whether or not anyone from London/UK has heard anything. Haven't noticed anything on this thread and the few people I know who are applying haven't heard anything.

(ETA: Oh yeah, also donating to Philippines charity appeals and making lots of intros for people looking for jobs. Loving this karma sub-plot on this thread ;) )

Does Stanford normally send out so few invites?? With HBS and Wharton (Ok, Wharton sends out lots!) i knew other people who got invites, with Stanford I know no one!

Maybe i'm over thinking this, but I think as an African candidate you may have a strong chance of being wait-listed to the 2nd round. Not because of your stats, but because given the full ride scholarship they are offering, they may want to have a better idea of what their African applicant pool looks like (which would require at least seeing what round 2 looks like) . Again, this is all purely speculation, but it makes logical sense to me.

I guess it does make sense.. i know MANY more people who are now applying round 2 because of the fellowships. Hope thats not the case though as I thought I would have a leg up applying round 1. It was this fellowship that made me think i had an opportunity to apply in the first place... I dont think any other schools offer anything close to it!

Did anyone who received an invite to interview also apply for the P4D Fellowship? Because I applied but haven't heard back. I'm thinking they saved us for last though, and my invite will be coming later this week or next.

Or maybe they haven't found anyone in MN to interview me yet..

That was my exact reasoning as well... I'm also from somewhere on the African continent :) I figured if I applied in Round 1, I'd have a pretty strong chance, and even now I'm not too concerned. Between today and tomorrow, I will receive the invite :)

Does anyone else resent any email that pops up in your inbox that isn't an invite?

So far today I hate: Google Alerts, Lumosity, Comcast, Starbucks, and a whole slew of schools sending me promotional stuff. :twisted:

some were/are to be interviewed by H, S and W and will turn down 2 of the 3, while some are desperate for an interview by any one of the 3....(though I do not apply to W....

maybe they can have early round, the decision of which is binding to applications, as Fuqua does...

anyway, keep the faith (I love Bon Jovi :)

All hope isn't lost... yet. The stats don't quite line up with last year's "Stanford GSB 2013 - Calling all Applicants" thread...

In R1, it looks like 42 (15%) of GMATclub applicants got interviews. This year, it's sitting at 15 (4%). This means a few things:

1) GMATClub R1 applicants are of less quality this year
2) People have not been updating their profiles
3) They're going to send out a huge wave of invites tomorrow

Fingers crossed for the third option!

Your analysis is not quite right. You are not including the people who already have interviewed. Although, it's directionally correct.

I think it's most likely the option two...

As much as I hope for a Stanford wave, someone a few pages back mentioned a logical flaw in these types of arguments. People always derive hope from seeing a larger % of people get invites from prior years, and conclude that another wave must be coming. But it doesn't take into account the following two factors:
- Historically, a lot of people join gmatclub AFTER they interview or get admitted (so not part of the big pool of R1 applicants you see now), pushing up the # interviewed after the decision release date
- After people get rejected, they opt to remove the school rather than post the "Ding", thereby shrinking the # of applicants after the decision release date

Both of those push up the % invited / interviewed, which is why we always see that in prior years 1) fewer people "apply", and 2) more people interview.
