Same here man. I am a bit bummed with the total ignorance from California schools. I was also really hoping for a kellogg invite but they waived it. Here’s hoping to come out of that limbo.

Cheers to us, man. I am barely this optimistic ever in life but i’m really glad to have someone who overcame that much adversity and depression in the last year.

Holy Smokes, you are like my twin AnthonyV

I was rejected without interview in 7 out of 8 schools that I applied to. I applied to all my target schools in R1 and I have managed to get 7 invites so far :)

Holly Molly. That’s awesome. Sloan, Booth, Tuck, Ross- care to share the other 3?

Anyone else here faced a similar dilemma/ interviewed (or got admitted after interviewing) with a beard?

Cheers!

You'll be totally fine. My spouse got into Harvard, Stanford and Booth. And he interviewed with a beard for all three.

It's just a beard. Don't worry about it.

What are everyone thoughts on padfolios with notes. Little prompts on certain behavioral answers and writing questions down beforehand. In standard interviews I️ know this is perfectly fine. Don’t know if MBA interview protocol is different

Hello All!
What do u think about an additional letter of support post interview?
Maybe I am trying to overdo things here, but any genuine advice would be welcome.
Thanks,
Sid

My thinking is that it's too much and might hurt your application.

Hi guys. Here is my paranoid question:

Did you guys all submit a Thank-you email immediately post-interview? Does not receiving a reply imply anything negative? Or, on the other hand, does receiving a rely mean anything positive?

Submitted a thank you and received no response. Could mean any of a few things:

1) standard protocol not to show favoritism to any candidate
2) interviewer received plenty of thank yous and needed a moment to respond
3) it’s thanksgiving week and they cut out monitoring email early
4) they hated me and my interview

Send it if you want, I did last year because I wanted to add one more detail that I didn't get to mention during interview and the interviewer did reply back. No biggie tho
