Folks- who got the call. On which number they called office or cell number???

Is that it? 3 applicants admitted from a team of approx 80 in the last 2.5 hours...I am scared

dbanerj, calm down - statistically it's extremely unlikely to have only 3 admits out of 80, given previous acceptance rates of GC members, and assuming we're not that different from a group of typical applicants. If you notice last year, it seems like more calls were made on the deadline day than the day before. just wait and see what happens.

You should not be too worried since there is still a lot of hope for people who have not been admitted yet. The fact that only a handful of people have received a call probabaly means that there is a big wave of admits coming today or tomorrow.

I would like to know this as well, as on my application, I said they could contact me at work.

They called my work number. Positive thoughts - there's still all day tomorrow! Good luck everyone!

Nycmba1023- When did you submit your application?? Is there pattern on time of application submission and call made??

With only 2 days of calls, there is probably no pattern, and even if there is, we will all have heard our decision before we can figure it out anyway. I'm in Korea and I'm hoping the only reason I haven't gotten my call yet is because of the time zone. Positive thoughts, right? Either way, good luck to everyone waiting. Hope we all get that call soon.

I don't know if it's related to time. I submitted my application in the last 5 minutes - maybe 4:57 or something like that. I was nervous it wasn't in on-time! And yes tjdeluca - definitely positive thoughts!
