I'm in for Ross, Cornell, and Haas. This year's thread is definitely much quieter than last year's. Is everyone on the thread shooting for the Nov. 15 deadline? Where is everyone in the process. At the last few diversity weekends I attended a lot of the prospective students were still working on the gmat.

Well, since you mentioned CMU, I was at their diversity weekend this past weekend. Suuuuuper quant-heavy school, which can be either a good or a bad thing depending on how you look at it. Very friendly adcoms and faculty. The most brutal thing about the place for me was location (being from So Cal).
As far as this thread being quite, it will probably pick up once everyone submits their applications. I too, was surprised by the number of people at the Diversity Weekends who are applying this year and were still in the GMAT phase.
Anywho, I'll be applying to the programs to the left within a day or so for Consortium Rd.1. Just putting the finishing touches on my Tepper essay and then I'm good to go.
Good luck finishing up your apps everyone!

It is really quiet on here in comparison to last year. I would've expected much more activity around now. But most of the thread's (except CBS) have been slow. I wonder if it has much to do with the overall decrease in applications this year. It also seems that a lot of people are either in or just taking the GMAT and almost everyone I spoke to at Discover Stern was aiming for round 2. As for myself I'm looking at round 1, I'm done all of my core essays as well as NYU and Cornell. Im writing drafts from Emory, USC, and UCLA right now and want to have them done by the Friday before the deadline.
Question for all: How many Consortium schools are people applying to? I'm looking at 5, but in speaking with a lot of people they said they wouldn't do any more than 4 as schools ranked 5 and 6 would hold that against you during admissions to protect their yield? Has anyone else heard this or have any thoughts on it?
And how was JMB at Cornell for all who went?
@mixedin86: are you still looking at Stern, I remember you applying to discover stern a while back
