For US applicants - remember Thanksgiving? Seems pretty recent, right?

The period of time that has elapsed between Thxgiving and today is the same amount of time FROM today when we will find out our fate at HBS.

Yes... I am a huge tool.


Hahaha - this is EXACTLY what I have been doing for the last 2 weeks.. :P gives you some peace...


9 days! Single digits! Really hoping for some good news on the 12th. I am dreading the thought of having to submit for R2 anywhere and start the whole process over again.

Had a dream last night I received a phone call that I was accepted at HBS and then subsequently told it was a mistake and I was actually rejected...

Then I somehow ended up at a Tom Petty concert and there was a talking cat on stage. Dreams are crazy, huh?

Couldn't sleep last night...expecting tonight and tomorrow night to be even less restful. Thinking of coming up with an HBS rain dance in hopes that the admissions gods might look favorably upon me.



I hear you on that - these last couple days will be some of the most anxious I've had in a while

Logged to my application and it no longer has the under review paragraph. Does that mean I am a gonner :(

mine doesnt say anything anymore either. the "this won't change until 12/12" whatever is gone.


oh boy .. mine too


I was logging onto my app last week as well and it never read anything like "this won't change until 12/12." All I saw then and see now is the same -post interview reflection (status submitted), app for admission (status submitted).. Do you guys see otherwise?

Perhaps time to chill and leave it to God. Always a believer in whatever happens happens for good. Que sera sera!

That said, nervous nevertheless!!

I think I logged in over the weekend and still saw the "this won't change until 12/12" statement. Logged in today after seeing everyone's comments here and now it is gone (i.e.: I only see the post-interview status and app for admission status). That's interesting that the "this won't change until 12/12" on your profile was gone as of last week. You know what it must mean... that we are all looking into this way too hard!!!

I just have to remember to breathe and actually get some sleep these next two nights.

I did over 60 mock interviews for HBS round 1, and many of those kids had not visited--it is really not a factor.
--good luck to all on 12/12

Applying to round 2, i visited HBS november 29th. Anyone from round 1 get an interview and did not visit HBS? and did anyone from R1 who did visit HBS get an interview ?

Most of the people i talked to at HBS said they visited before they apply. Even though HBS, states you don't need to come, I really think it was such an important component to talk about the school's unique qualities.


I did not visit HBS before applying and received an interview. I went to the school for my interview.
