Hi rianaamy, I trust all the business schools accept applicants from people having 10-12 years of work experience. It’d be better to:
1. prepare a list of your target schools and connect with their current students to understand if your goals align with the class profile
2. Identify the middle 80% range for your target schools

Here’s a link of consolidated class profiles at top business schools for your reference

9 AM CT is what I’ve seen too for R1 last year.

How’s is everybody dealing with the stress (if you’re stressed out) of admission decisions? I’m freaking out sometimes and the other times I’m like I don’t want to open the decisions on 30th and want to wait a day or two.. lol.

Seems they might be uploading results already.
One applicant reported on clearadmit his website glitched for a sec and he accidentally saw his waitlist decision early

Just got an email about December events at Booth. I think schools shouldn’t be emailing anything just a few days or a day before decions.
