I went to a rhyme and toured the b-school with rhyme so I needed to use him.

Thank god both my recs came through and I got the emails for that or I would be so friggin stressed right now. I am just converting everything to PDF and making sure it all looks right at this point.

Rhyme I use your real identity in one of my essays.

i didnt reference rhyme, even though he helped me a great deal. i didnt want to be grouped into the "kids rhyme helped" demographic, which is probably larger and more competitive than the Indian IT group :)


LOL. There are even some folks like me who belong to both the demographics. Talk about competition ;-)


me too one of Rhymes wunderkints.......missed him by a whisker in GSB, but he totally told me what exactly gsb can give me - thanks again. Though I was tempted, I controlled my my name dropping in the essay ;)

So after much consideration I decided not to submit my 200 word extra portion to the PPT. I think my slides stand on their own very well and reading their notes on the subject it seems like thats the way they really prefer it.

D@%m it!

I just found an agreement mistake on my 1st essay... :stupid2

I hope they do not be too picky!

I promised myself I won't revise anymore my essays.

Sorry guys, paints start pooping

Kwam I dont know if you went to a GSB live event but if the essays we read there are any indication of how strict they are I wouldn't worry about a little agreement issue. Mistakes will happen, I doubt anyone outside of a masters level english major with far too much time would submit a grammatically flawless essay.

Now I feel like I am too late :(

Any R2 applicants for GSB here?
I have registered for the October 26th event at Chicago. Is anyone else also visiting the school that day?

Thanks

Congratulations to all you R1-ers! Now forget about Chicago (till you get the interview invite) and start stressing about the others, if any.

Was there a pdf copy of the complete application that you guys saved before submitting.

I think I missed that step (hope I didnt miss anything else).

I am only able to see an HTML copy of my application coversheet - it dosnt show the essays I submitted.
