Do the megafunds fill their entire class from on-cycle?

If I didn't get any interview invites am I screwed? Also, how long does the on-cycle process typically last?

Heard from numerous during coffee chats it’s 50/50 and getting less every year

 

No they don't. Agree with others, 50/50 

That said if you want MF and don't get any outreach in this first wave, you should be thinking about how to make yourself more competitive or what else you would be interested in with this. If you're not at a top group it becomes very difficult, and maybe that informs what you say to HH about your goals
