Anyone else just lurking around and trying to absorb as much as they can from the veterans on board here? :P

I discovered this forum a few weeks ago, and it's reassuring that there are folks here who are going through the same process that I will find myself in a few months from now!

To you 2009'ers...best of luck!

I'm applying next year as well. I took my GMAT so I knew what schools I could target and then I plan on getting as many visits in as possible this year. I really wanted to visit the schools before applying.

Absolutely! I've spent many days just poring through post after post after post.

I'll be taking my GMAT sometime in October, so we'll see how that goes.

just a quick tip to the 2010 applicants. Pick an avatar and stay with it over the next year. Your posts and contributions to the forum will be remembered by the 2007, 2008, and 2009 folks and you may just get some extra personal attention when it comes application time in a year. :)

Advice heeded, kryzak!

Gulp. I'm already getting nervous just thinking about the whole process. Sheesh.

Kryzak (or anyone else!) - do you think visiting schools THIS year would be a good option? Or would you recommend pushing that to sometime next year?

i'd wait until spring 09 to visit, that way the visits will be fresh in your mind when you begin essays while still being early

spring 09 makes more sense, and you'll get better info from the 1st years who have survived 1.5 semesters (or 2 quarters) already.
