I'll be there! I'm not sure what the schedule is for the event - April 20? What time?
I'm planning on being there Fri-Sun.

Come in on Thursday before 7pm if you can - people share drinks the night before. You'll have access to the schedule today as soon as you get your admit portal login.

Hey rhyme,
I've gone back and forth so many times over the past few weeks. I'm either bipolar or too emotional...
Now that I can get into the GSB admitted portal I hope to make a better comparison of what the experience will be like. The one thing that keeps jumping out at me is the instant finance credibility that I will have with GSB. AS someone with a Social Science undergrad and only sales experience I see great value in that, no matter what career I choose.
On the flipside, I think I might be a better fit at Kellogg as the atmosphere suits my background a bit more. Although, based on all of interactions with GSB and Kellogg I have been more impressed with the GSB people. I am slightly leaning towards GSB at this moment so I might see you at admit weekend.
The debate continuees...

Well, in all honesty, if you are going to make a well informed decision you should come to the admit weekend and experience things for yourself. Its funny you bring up the "impressed by" thing, because I felt the same way.

I think I'll be there. I'm going to Ross the weekend before so I will be able to compare. Right now still leaning Ross because of the advantage in general management/sustainablity....but GSB has rhyme.

I will be there. Unfortunately, can't get in early enough for Thursday night.
Does anyone else have access to their GSB email yet? I can't seem to log in.
Hey Rhyme - where in the admitted student website did you see all of that information about how many people accepted offers, etc?

See the community portal. You have to extrapolate from there, see the 09 class google group for a discussion.

I'll be there. It sounds Holiday Inn isn't honoring the $99 rate that weekend, so I may have to use hotwire and hope to get lucky again. If anyone knows of a good deal, please post it.
