Is there a certain reason why peeps are thinking that most calls have already gone out?

Well, while I would totally love to get that phone call today, I'm just not understanding exactly how people come to the conclusion that most phone calls have gone out already. I mean, as far as we know, the reported call of our first Tuck admit this year started at around 2pm PST. That call took 10 minutes, as the admit claimed. If we extrapolate that information and keep in mind that there's only a limited number of adcoms at Tuck, I can't imagine THAT many have gone out already. Again, this may just wishful thinking, but before we all get so pessimistic, I'd like to have some concrete information, rather than just a bunch of buzzkills.

And if everybody is indeed invited to join FB 2013 group then we have only 14 members so far.. out of which 2 admin & supposedly 2 staff members.. so tht means only 10 have joined.. well, I am pretty sure very few decisions have gone out so far and they have kept most for today... m predicting that they will start before 9am today and will call us all.. :)

well for me, i'm thinking the China/Japan/Korea calls are pretty much over - 6 got a call this morning (around 7 to 8 pm tuck time) and last year there were about 10 EA admits from China. Numbers are looking fairly close and the only shot left is tonight for us in Asia - and they have yet to call India (if i'm reading the forums correctly)

No pessimism! My roommate, was T'09, European, and was called at 3PM (EST!) on the last day. There is hope, and nothing is final until 5:00 PM EST on the 17th.

Hey. I dont want to throw a bucket of cool water, but dont you guys think that the fact that there are already 13 or 14 Brazilians in Tuck (most of them are 1st year students) will make it harder for us (Brazilians) to get in this year?

Don't you realize they're different classes? They are T'11 and we are T'13.
And in the info session, with the Dean, he stated that HE wants the number of Brazilians in a higher level!

It's hard to say. In the last years, the number of brazilian were:

2008: 10
2009: 4
2010: 14

I don't know if they will maintain the tendency of 10+ or if they will call less brazilian guys to compensate last year.
