Wharton is definitely my first choice. Just about 1 more week of waiting. Been a long journey...

Wharton is DEFINITELY my first choice and I will probably send the deposit on Friday if I get good news next Thursday. Wait is absolutely killing me though. :x

Anyone going to the Wharton India Economic Forum this weekend?

https://www.whartonglobal.com/india/index.php

Heard it was a big success last year...and they have some impressive speakers this time around.

I am still thinking about going, but have no particular reason to attend...If only I had a interview invite, I would have been very excited about this...

For those of you who remember my posts. Dinged at all three schools I applied to including Wharton/Lauder russian. That jump-started my job search. I'm leaving the large asset manager where I've worked in client service for 2 years to join another large asset manager in institutional sales. I'm totally stoked. FT MBA is totally out of the picture for the near term. Those of you who don't get in use it as motivation to improve your situation. The introspection required on the applications really solidified my goals and made me realize that I belong in sales. No point really in waiting...

I don't know about you guys, but as it gets closer to decision time, my anxiety level is going through the roof. Anyone know what time we can expect decisions?

I heard all the decisions are released on Thursday am, 9.00am'ish. All calls will go out after that. You may or may not get a call if admitted.

Honestly, I am really anxious. I have no admit so far and 2 dings, which make my hope really dim. Not expecting any call from MIT either at this point.

:(

BKk, I know how you feel. I have 4 dings, 1 WL and I am not expecting to hear from Harvard or MIT either. This is basically my last hope, but no pressure, haha.

I am waiting on Thursday to get some direction on my future path of action. I am in at Duke and Darden, waiting on Wharton and not yet heard from Stern. Good luck to everyone.

whew, glad to know i am not the only one sweating it out here. somehow, i was doing pretty well with the wait until last week when I very unexpectedly got an interview from a 3rd school. for some reason, that last interview really threw me into a tailspin and now the wait is friggin killing me. i am hoping that chicago or wharton come through in the next few days so that i can basically forget about this whole mess and get back to productive work. friday was a day off for most of the finance industry, but i did nothing with my 3 day weekend except watch HBO and do other mindless tasks to take my mind off the decisions this week.

Good luck to everyone waiting for R2 decisions, here's hoping y'all get in. In R1 calls started going out around 7am...decisions went live around 9ish.

Hey shmegs, does that mean that Wharton started calling (calling=phone calls) admits before the email/notifications went out?

In R1, they started calling people in Asia around 4 or 5 AM eastern time (Shmegs, didn't you get a call pretty early?). Most accepted folks, though, hadn't heard anything by the time the decisions were posted to Apply Yourself. While Wharton had said decisions would be posted by 9 AM EST, they didn't actually come out until 10:30 AM. Very annoying :x My interviewer called to congratulate me at ~ noon or so.
