It's going to be a very tough day


Sure of this? I had a problem with my second recommender. I added a 3rd recommender. She got the mail, and submitted the reco today. I have even received confirmation mail from Sloan. Then I sent a mail to second recommender saying that she need not worry about the reco.

We can't remove the recommender once we enter the details, but we can add recommenders.


Let me check once again... I couldn't find on the system.

On the make things worse, I had a physical examination and the physician told me my blood pressure is high: I told today everything but my patience is high :lol:

Did you guys single or double-space your essays? I can't find instructions either way for Sloan. My cover letter is single spaced as that's business standard, but the essays?

Well have officially submitted. I used 1.5 spacing for all my essays (even cover letter), it makes the much easier to read, which is probably appreciated by reviewers after reading hundreds of essays. All mine except my cover letter fit on one page.

My boss feels so bad about screwing up the time that he actually is leaving to go home so he can submit his rec. I gave him all the rec forms 3 months ago and he had them done just never bothered to submit them.

Only Tuck left for R1. Then a few weeks of relaxing before getting R2 ones ready just incase. All I want is one success and then I can go into total mind melt mode.

Updated with what I could figure out:

I am amazed at collegesenior's ability to get these done so quick.

I should have submitted last night but decided to head to bed and get a good night sleep for work. Then I submitted during my lunch break nice and refreshed.

I used "MIT Sloan School of Management" once in my cover letter. For the sake of economy, I used either "Sloan" or "MIT Sloan" in other places.

I am inclined to be conservative. If you write this hastily, then chances are you will make mistakes and end up with an essay that is not at the same level as your other ones. BTW, what is your theme for this supplemental essay.
