Just when you thought the last admit was reported...I got into work this morning to discover a message from Kelly Curtin waiting for me. She didn't say exactly what it was about, but I assume they didn't call me to ding me. Tried to call back just now but it's 9PM in Chicago, so will have to wait until the morning there to call back. Feeling incredibly pumped!

Any idea at what time (Chicago time) was the message delivered?

Message was left at 10:30PM China time, which would translate to 9:30AM in Chicago I believe (they're on Daylight Savings Time now right?)

Man, I feel so emotionally drained right now.

Cheetarah, LRW, scorpionz, congrats. Definitely expected it for all three of you. My stats buddy, Consulting2Finance, and I, will learn of our fate tomorrow morning. I'm not too hopeful about this or about my prospects at Wharton, but I refuse to be a defeatist.

Solidarity my friend. At least you have CBS to fall back on. Plus when we both cash in Wharton this will seem like a bad dream.

Missed a call at 4:02. Admissions office left a message. Called back and got VM.. can it be???

That's a YES... I had a similar experience (described in the last post on page 101).

Congrats! And congrats to everyone who has heard from Booth today, really.

For those who haven't, I remember from going through last year's posts that the calls didn't stop going out till 7-8pm CST... so hang in there.

Thanks! It is a yes. I was waitlisted in R1.

I won't believe there is bad news for you (or Consulting2Finance) unless I see it in writing. I'm rooting for you. Booth would be stupid to turn either of you two down and I don't think that Booth is a stupid school. #teamhelloandc2f
