I am in @ Duke and waiting on UCLA. I loved my visit to Fuqua and will be happy to attend. I only applied to 3 schools that I would love to attend.

Helg, I hope that Wharton & Chicago come through for you, and you should have an excellent shot at Tuck or any other school you add in R2.

R2 applicants, the interview calls start from tomorrow! Hope everyone is ready with thick diapers, as the interview calls will continue until 2/15.
My status changed to 'Complete for Round 2' a few days ago. The status also states that it has not received the official GMAT scores. I am sure that I selected Wharton during my test....I will be pissed if mba.com requires me to pay again.

I think it takes some time for the AdCom to put together the info they receive from various sources. Hope you will not have to pay twice.
