- I had missed reading the part without interview. Fully agree with
; would count those as dings basically and focus now on the upcoming cycle. Even my 2 Indian clients on the Duke WL w/o interview submitting superb updates (got a job, promoted, etc) to Fuqua haven't received interviews but thankfully one is headed to IESE and the other Booth. Would recommend you apply to a lot more schools next time.
Honestly, I would say to engage a trustworthy admissions consultant with a solid reputation to review your applications and identify why adcom has pause. This might be a matter of too much competition or there might be something actionable. After reviewing your app then take the appropriate actions (improve leadership profile, redo test, etc), or incorporate resolution to problems (impractical goals, etc) in the update letter. If you plan to reapply, the input will be really helpful, especially because consultants know how your merits stack up against others in your profile group. This gives you a plan going into the reapplication process should things not go your way, this season.
