Done with all apps this season!! [#permalink] New post   06 Jan 2007, 10:41
After a lot of late nights and weekends, working my @$$ off through putting in 70hrs/week at work, I am finally done for this season (except if I get any interview calls)!!

The positives:

1. Ross - R2
2. MIT - R1 no interview call yet
3. Yale - R2
4. CMU - R2
5. ISB - R2

The negatives:
1. Officially an anti-social in my friend circle
2. Called a bunch of friends and they dont return calls any more :(
3. Ding from Wharton after interview (think I screwed up in interview).

I really owe a lot to you guys for your inputs. Now if one of these schools dont take me...then I'm joining quitting Comedy Central to work on apps full time for next year :twisted:

I didn't know a lot about ISB until I met their representatives at an MBA fair in NY. The program looked quite appealing and the student body was older/experienced unlike the IIMs. Since I am not switching careers, I thought it would be a great experience to finish the MBA from there and work in the Indian economy. They have some placements outside India and giving my background I felt that I could get an offer outside India as well if wanted to. Plus I wouldn't mind spending a year in India and visiting family all over!

Given that you are not a career switcher...makes a lot of sense.

Well I am done too!!!!!!!!
Cornell - R3
Chicago - R2

Seeing lot of dings and waitlists here, I am not too optimistic anymore? Any suggestions/ideas? Should I apply to any other as a back up?
