Vinner66,
Congrats. Its a good sign.
Since Kellogghas a large volume of Indian applicants especially from bangalore and Mumbai, they tend to blindly first waive off the interview.
Then after a quick read of apps they call applicants for interviews.
So, dont worry and all the best

As for me, i applied to K at the 11th hour. My interview was also waived off. Hoping for a good sign.

Hope this helps,

Now on Oct 27th, I've got a mail saying 'upon review of my file', the adcomm wants to schedule a phone interview.

Does anyone know if this is a good sign/bad sign etc.?

I've scheduled it for tommorrow night IST.

I think thats a very good sign. This says that they read your file and are interested and hence are asking you to interview!
Congrats! Please let us know how the interview goes.

I personally think that the interview adds up on the positive side. I say - take this opportunity and tell them that Kellogg is a top choice and you are willing to travel to another city (Bombay, Delhi) to have an interview.

It will have a very strong effect on your candidacy and put in the right terms, it will show that you put in that extra effort and interest.

Just my 2 cents.
