I have heard that a person with 710 gmat got off from WL at Cornell and converted it! Anybody here in the same boat?

I had a 720 gmat and was able to convert my waitlist to admission. Got a call only day before yesterday Posted from my mobile device

Hi Kalaivani, That's great..congrats on the admit! Can you please share when did you get the interview call from Johnson and how you strategized to convert this WL? Cheers, Vinit.

Congrats! May I ask were you placed on the waitlist with or without an interview? Thanks!

I interviewed with them on Jan 14th. And was Waitlisted after the interview on Jan 31st. And for converting the waitlist I did exactly what the Adcom have been saying through the emails and webinars. I assessed my profile to identify potential weakness areas and came up with action items to address the same. Shared the action plan with adcom and got a comment saying I was on right track. Although the comment made me wonder if it was an actual feedback. I guess it's the nerves and stress of being on the waitlist. Although they did not ask me to improve my gmat score, I did do MBA math course to prove my Quant skills. During this time I also tried connecting with the Johnson community in different ways. I got in career management team and current students who were waitlisted. Not just to understand how to convert my waitlist but also to understand what can I do better to be a successful Johnson student and alumni later on. Posted from my mobile device

Hello, congratulations on your admit! I’ve been waitlisted this year and was wondering if you would help me understand a little bit about what I could do to get off the waitlist. Also, can you share any rough number on how many students cornell usually waitlists every year?
