Is everybody writing Optional Essays?
What kind of word limits are you guys working with on the Optional Essay? 500?

Well, I'm not writing it. There are 4 required essays and not much left to discuss for me personally.

I wrote a pretty brief synopsis of my undergrad gpa, and that was it. It probably took up just 150 words.

I didn't write an optional essay. Sounded to me from the question it was more for explaining problem points in your application like low GPA for example. I didn't have anything like that to say so I didn't write one. I thought about writing a little extra about how much I like tuck, but thought it might ended up annoying them instead of adding to my application.

I came home tonight to a full mailbox. A thick package grabbed my attention, and when I flipped it over and saw Tuck on the envelop the rest of the mail I was holding quickly fell to the ground. I stood there tearing open the package to be greeted with …a Tuck information pack. "I encourage you to explore Tuck further." Waiting game continues…

Mine still says "submitted" as well.

I submitted my application on October 2nd and my last recommendation went in on October 13th.

that means your app has not been read

diff between completed and submitted is app has been read

Which line are you referring to?

Application Status or Submission Status?

I show Completed/Submitted, respectively. I thought that Completed just meant that your test scores had been matched up with your file.

Is there a place we can check on GmatClub what the total number of EA, R1, ... etc is? In other words, when you say updated Roll Call, where is this reflected?

Thanks

PS: mine also says completed, a few days after submitted
