Congrats Rhyme, that's pretty sweet. You must have been an easy admit considering how early they called you.
I'm hopeful, but not optimistic. Chicago was my first application, and my essays for subsequent applications have been so much better that I feel like I'd be really lucky to get in.
For the rejects/wait list, I wonder how they notify you? Email? Certainly not a call, right? All this waiting is making my heart pound.
I doubt I was a clear admit - my GPA is low - 3.0 - my GMAT is strong but I took it THREE times. I honestly think that going to Fall Preview, connecting with students and admissions officers and probably a HUGE essay effort did it. My work experience is also very mixed.
