Anyone currently prepping to apply for R2? Posted from my mobile device

Unfortunately, HBS will not provide feedback. If they did it for one person, they would have about 8000 other applicants they'd have to offer that to in order to keep things fair, so that is why they don't do it. Today my B-Schooled podcast episode on "What to do after a ding" just went live and it goes deeper into what a ding means and what your next steps could be.

Yes, ESPECIALLY if you have only taken it once. I would keep a running list of everything you accomplish or are involved in (personal, professional, volunteer) since you submitted. They may provide you with an opportunity to submit a brief update before they reevaluate your materials alongside Round 2 applicants. Best of luck!

Hey Folks, I applied last year in R1 and was waitlisted - Further Consideration. Later in Dec they asked me to submit an update on my candidacy, if anything had changed profesionally or personally. I drafted a short response for it highlighting my recent promotion, some thought-leadership in my industry and some personal insights into my marriage life which had just started as I had filed my R1 application. Apparently they liked it and bumped me up to a confirmed interview along with R2 decisions. If you folks need any specific help with this do contact me on chat.
