Kellogg cares. CBS probably cares the most of the M7.

HSW doesn’t care about any of your engagement.

I think Booth & MIT kinda care but not as much as Kellogg and CBS.

CBS & MIT ask what events you have attended on your application.

If you are going to miss a session, cancel. Don’t no show.

MIT cares and tracks. They often feel like they are the backup for HBS and don't want to be considered that. They want students who have researched the program and want to be part of the MIT community.

Yale don’t care about the engagement, but they stay having endless amount of admission events

Basically everyone except H/S to an extent. But some care more. Tuck/Duke/CBS etc

McKinsey & Company Anyone have any experience with repeating the same PEI story with different interviewers at McKinsey & Company

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?
