Thanks! Yes, I know that question was in 2012 application. But the strange part is that that question was part of my application like a month ago.
Also, the deadline for R1 ended at 5PM ET.
You're correct about the 5pm deadline.
Also, I noticed something similar with the questions. I had both the current question and last year's question in my spreadsheet of essays for Darden. I'm like 90% sure I pulled them straight from the application, and not from earlier in this thread where there's some confusing discussion making it sound like both questions exist. I would have pulled them within a week of the application going live. I found their overall online application to be less than stellar, so I'm going to write it off to it may have been there by accident at first and they took it down. I was particularly disappointed with their treatment of the 'Description' field within the company popups. Other applications make it sound as though that's asking for a description of the company (some even explicitly say so). With Darden, it changed that field to say 'Job Description' only after you reviewed the preview PDF. The Job Function list in the same popup was also obscure - the list items better described industry than job function.
Anyway, three down and one more to go before I get some breathing room. I'm also starting to really burn out on these, but trying my best to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
