I knew a guy applied 2 years ago last round and got dinged without interview and he reapplied in R1 the following year, dinged after interview. Sloan was his dream school. He went to HBS instead LoL. I just admitted to this year R1but dinged from HBS.

Damn what was his story that he didn’t get in go Sloan but did to HBS

Not “significantly” (R3 is though) and in webinar, adcomms explicitly stated R1 and R2 are the “same”. But they’re also the only school that writes “Apply early” in the tips and suggestions slide of every PowerPoint 😂

As long as you have a major change to show as a reapplicant . Otherwise it’s gonna be tough in such a competitive cycle
