Please add me to this thread for R1.
Also, I'm starting my essays only today and am literally crapping bricks...I have goals/leadership essays from other schools though and I just have to write 2 new ones.
I just spoke to Adcom and they said R1 does have an advantage so I'm rushing to get this into R1.
Is anybody else in the same boat or am I the only idiot?
Any "you can do it" words are appreciated, and so are "No way " advice.
good luck to all
I'd been planning to apply in R1 since the beginning of this year. However, I'm starting a new job and I'd like to include my new position in the application and essays, so I've decided to apply R2. I know about the advantages of applying early but I've been telling myself that there's no point in handing in a mediocre application now if I can hand in something much better later. I'll keep working on my essays and I'll retake the GMAT (my quant score was "meh" and an LBS rep said, in an
Accepted.com chat, that a high GMAT does help) so hopefully the delay will be worth it.
Honestly though, if you're happy with your application and know you won't have any regrets after hitting the Submit button, you should go for it.
