Let's hope we hear positive news on may 13th then.... The wait is so painful. The waitlist is truly purgatory....

Based on last years forum seems very unlikely any of us get off the waitlist, but they seem to keep it going throughout the summer... hopefully this year is different. Does anyone know how long it would take to get a visa (outside the EU)?

Me too!

Would I be right in thinking are chances are probably less than 1 in 10? It's so frustrating waiting as LBS was my number one school.

On another note, does anyway have any thoughts on the value of applying again next year? My profile won't have changed massively (a bit better experience, maybe a bit better GMAT) - but ultimatly 90% the same as it was when I applied before. Is it worth a shot or am I wasting my time - time which would be better spent applying elsewhere?

Thanks in advance! Joseph

I am in the WL as well. Does anybody have news about someone you was succesfully admitted this year after being placed in the WL? I have seen nobody so far...

From previous years I know that it is very difficult but did not understand how much (someone was optimistic other no).

I have a friend who has been admitted through the WL. He applied in R3 and was admitted after the first review of the WL....

I am a WL as well. Looks like the odds of converting an LBS waitlist are rather bleak.

All

It would be great if all waitlisted candidates could at least post their nickname on this thread so that we can track the real number of waitlisted candidates.

Anyone expecting positive feedback on May 13 ?

I'm not judging (or hating) - this was just an FYI. Thought others here might be interested to know (and for all we know the person is one of us here ..)

Nothing here, last time I got the WL email at around 3:45pm (new york time), so probably similar timing... although I'm expecting either further WL or rejection based on prior years

It's not as crazy as wharton WL results yesterday... 50+ people and everyone go re-waitlisted until mid July
