Booth 2012 - Calling All Applicants

Thanks @rid82!
For the benefit of the lucky R1 folks who will be invited to interview down the line, can you please share your interview experience from last year?
If you have already posted that (last year or earlier this year), we will really appreciate if you could guide us to that post!!

Guys,

Just submitted my apps and couldnt feel better. I realized, though, that I didn't put in a degree that I earned at my undergrad institution. So it says "Degree: No Degree". It was a Bach. in Business, and says so in my resume.

Any thoughts on how this would be viewed?

mail the adcom ASAP. there's still around 10 hours to go before R1 closes.

Thank you scorpionz!

It's very strange because I removed the last essay and everything started working fine. I think it's a problem that arises only when the application is complete.

Thank you anyway.

Btw, just minutes to press submit button!!!

My manager rocks.. he just gave me feedback on my presentation slides

Just submitted the application! Feeling very relieved now!

All the best to everyone!

Hey, I had the same question and called up the ad com office to clear up the confusion..
Ad com confirmed that this question only pops up on the application form if you indicate that you are a US citizen. However since the preview generation tool is common for everyone, that question appears for everyone in the previewed application (blank in case of non-US citizens)..

Also, just as a heads-up for everyone, I observed that my mailing address was getting truncated in the previewed application. I checked with the ad com office and was told that the address is stored correctly in the back-end database. It is just a limitation of the preview generation tool that it cannot display long addresses. So no worries!!

Thanks gmatpapa, I was thinking of just letting it go.

I hope they can correct it!

Application just submitted!!!!

Just submitted the application with 4.5 hours to spare! Fingers crossed now!

All the best to everyone!

Submitted mine last night, that presentation took a lot out of me.

Good idea.

You could always look over the posts from the Booth 2011 section. Basically, browse the November 2011 and February 2012 time frame.

Here are a few that might be helpful:

Submitted my application--breath out

Submitted, 2:12 am India time.. I'm a sleep like a log now.. Have told my boss I'm going to come real late tomorrow

So when I submitted, it still said "awaiting test scores." I called up the adcom a while ago and they said I wouldn't have to submit official scores unless I'm accepted. Am I mistaken?

Submitted at 4:57 CDT! I was up until 2 AM last night reworking an essay and the presentation... whew!

Here is my "dumb a.s moment" in application process (hopefully it is the last one for me). I started filling parts of application few weeks ago and at that time completed the "Source of Information about MBA program" section indicating that I have not visited any Booth organized event. A few weeks later I made arrangements and actually participated in Chicago Booth Live event. It was great, I spoke to many of current and prospective students, and learned tons of useful information. But guess what---I did not change my previous entry about source of information and it still says that I have not visited any Booth events.

Million dollar question---should I contact the admissions office and notify them of my mistake or should I just let it go? Another thing to consider is that I have mentioned visiting Chicago Booth Live in my essays.

Any suggestions?
