Believe it. I am (most likely) below median. I have a 3.1ish. I got 7 CBs, and I have 3 offers. No, I am neither a hot chick (I'm a guy) nor a URM (I'm white). I credit it all to my personality during interviews.

Honestly I don't care.

AS CLS, below median, with 3 cbs/0 offers, I actually don't find your story all that amazing. You might have a good personality, idk, but the bidlist seems solid and sometimes that's what counts. How did you do wrt the Boston market- because I know people who got shut out there.

What Vault range are the offers at?

Need to know more about you. Since this is an OCI thread:

What is your greatest STRENGTH; and your greatest WEAKNESS?

Tell me about a time you triumphed over adversity (assume you are a middle class white boy).

If you could meet one famous person from any period in history, who would it be?

When do you think you work at your best?

Only one Boston-based CB, but I haven't done it yet (and, I might cancel, at this point). All my other CBs are NYC. Vault ranges are all V50 - V100 for the 3 offers. I didn't really bid beyond V40 (as you can see from my list).

EDIT: Also, never said anything about this being amazing. Like I said, this thread was not even meant to focus on my job search.
