Is not having a a manager rec letter what killed my chances for Duke EA MBA


760 GMAT 3.1 GPA ORM, F500 tech PM and former FAANG SWE. 3.5 years total exp.

My team consists of me and my Manager, whom I didn’t want to ask for versions reasons. I had an engineer colleague from FAANG that I left 1 year ago write my letter.

WL Duke ED? Was that the reason why? I got invited to Ross interview with the same rec letter (duke was schedule your own) so idk if it’s a total deal breaker
