Oh dear... in which case I must have been dinged if I haven't heard then. Correct?

I don't think anyone can tell you definitively if you've been dinged. Just keep thinking positive until the 19th. Anyone else second guessing and doubting every aspect of their applications?

Hi, I'm thinking about applying to Tuck in R3. Is it doable or is it just application suicide in R3?

Haha, well not definitively. But if the first calls were to Consortium applicants, and I am one, and I haven't gotten a call then that doesn't seem good. I am trying to remain positive but it's very discouraging to read all of this.

Maybe or maybe they're just making their final Consortium decisions right?

I understand what you're saying about getting discouraged and, for many, this whole process is discouraging in general. I'm looking at the strong possibility of not getting in anywhere so it could always be worse for you. I was dinged from Duke after an int, and have since only interviewed at Tuck (self-initiated) and UNC with no interviews from Cornell or UVA. It's a tough process for most of us - please excuse my inappropriate venting! Good luck to you.

Hi lbird,
Not inappropriate at all. Totally understandable! I just want this to be over with. I understand how you feel about the possibility of not getting in anywhere, as I could be in a similar position. Good luck to you too. Pretty soon this will all be over either way.

No, regular Jan round applicant. Don't know how they sort applications/calls, but I was the first to report an admit in EA and looks like my wife is first in this round!

Hope there are many more phone calls to GMAT clubbers today, tomorrow and Friday!

Apologies if I sounded brash, but I'm just unable to contain the excitement and don't know how to react, this is probably the happiest I've ever been. Best of luck everyone!

I was in Minneapolis, it was one of the harsh winter nights and I was tucked inside my blue comforter when I created this account. Hence the arbitrarily chosen name "blueblanket".

ACCEPTED. I just got the call. I'm a R3 applicant (January round).

Issue is that I got a good scholarship (50K) from another B-School that accepted me (not as well ranked as Tuck), and at Tuck I missed the deadline for applying to scholarship (January 14), so I am not sure if I should go to Tuck or to the other one.
