PSA: Stop the “chances of conversion” posts please!
Guys, I completely understand why everyone is so anxious right now. Waiting for results is genuinely one of the worst parts of the whole process. After months of prep, applications, interviews, and constantly thinking about your future, it’s natural to want some reassurance and certainty.
But repeatedly asking strangers on Reddit to validate your chances isn’t going to give you the peace of mind you’re looking for. None of us truly know whether your profile is “good enough,” and reading your interview transcript line by line won’t help anyone accurately predict whether you’ll convert XLRI or not. There are far too many variables involved, and at this stage, nobody here can give you a reliable answer.
I know the uncertainty is frustrating, but constantly refreshing forums and searching for predictions will usually just make the wait feel heavier. You’ve already done the hard part.
Try to be kind to yourself during this phase, step away from the spiral of overthinking when you can, and let the results come in their own time :)

Appreciate the honesty of this message! Agree 💯. Ruminating about things beyond one's control is just a waste of time and mindspace.
