collegesenior, I just saw your profile in the askaccepted.com forum. Jeez, with a profile like that, I'd be shocked to death if they didn't accept you straight away.

collegesenior, kripal's comment forced me to visit "Ask Accepted.com" section and view your profile. I must say that you have an interesting profile and age is on your side. So, even if you get dinged at H/S/W (In the worst case), I would recommend that you gain some experience and become a much stronger candidate (As Paul said in his feedback) next year (or year after that) instead of following your back-up options. Just my $0.02

abhishek sardana? So with HBS' famous 14% acceptance, this means that at most two from this list will make it in...

Uh-oh, does this officially turn into a pants-pooping thread now that our apps are submitted?

Working on my U Chicago app I guess. Although that will, in turn, generate more pants-pooping. I just accept the fact that, at the end of the season, I will have pooped my pants quite a few times.

Not so much alleviating it, but delaying it... I'm busy working on Chicago GSB & Kellogg's apps. After that I'll start working on Ross & Wharton for R2 which should hopefully keep my mind out of pants-pooping mode. That is until I start seeing interview invites coming out and start freaking out about not being invited yet.

Well, again, 14% is for the AVERAGE applicants. GMATClubbers are not AVERAGE. With scores over the GMAT Mean and good preparation like I've seen here, I think our changes are much higher than just 14%. I would even dare say 20-25%.

I think we had two admits last year. Dont know how many applied. With some luck, we should be able to atleast equal last year's record.
