Dear Sandy,
First of all, I would like to say congratulations on running a very informative and well-organized blog. I recently found your blog after searching for the answer to my question, which I hope you can provide an answer to.
For the HBS admissions process, is an interview required of all applicants who are to be accepted? Or do some people get accepted to HBS without being interviewed? (I know this was the case ~10 years ago, but I’m not sure if this practice continues today). Similarly, are interviews a required part of the admissions process for other top 5 schools?
Many thanks in advance for your reply.
Best wishes,
