HBS application has been the most strenuous for me ( probably because I really want to get in :-) ). I went on for 48 hours without any sleep. Made up for all the lost sleep yesterday night. Still feel groggy. Can imagine when you say "feel like a superstar" :-)

The challenge is to find the energy for the other applications now eh? I am applying to two more in R1 and the very thought of round 2 is killing me.

I get done on the 18th with Kellogg. But sitting back and relaxing won't be an option even then! What with interview worries and 2nd round worries.

I'm having the same problems. I can't seem to get the stamina to keep going for R1. I hope it comes back in the next 2 days or so.

BTW - My HBS main page now says: "Your application is under review. MBA Admissions will contact you if we need further information. Please note that this field will not change again until the notification date."

I guess this means the game is on?

No, it wasn't there when the app was submitted. The status means that they have printed the application and created your file.

Does it mean they didn't have too much trouble with the glitch on my job descriptions? Ugh, I CANNOT get over the fact that I put the job#2 description at job#3...even though job#3 is blank and it's pretty clear that the description is for jon#2.

It's still killing me though and I think that's what's going to keep me out. Ugh, such a bad feeling after so much work.

Hey, I really think you are worrying too much. I read somewhere that the adcom are not looking to ding you over silly things. If you are a strong applicant, this will not matter. So just relax. You will do just fine.

Alright then! IT IS ON.. Any idea whether the adcom has a preference to evaluate a particular pool before the others? You know like, may be get done with the 790 folks before moving on to humans?

So, there.. There's absolutely NO point to worry. If at all it concerns them, they'll give you a call. And this being a reason for rejection- not a chance in hell, so chill, you're good :)

I think reading this thread is making me even more nervous. I submitted my application over a week early since I had to go on a business trip. Now I'm itching for more info, patience on this one is going to be difficult.

yeah, stop worrying about it and make it a lesson learned. Don't submit until you verify it at least twice, maybe three times.
