God! You got dinged too? Very surprising indeed! GMAT: 760, Consulting WE, China. Am sure the rest of your profile might be good as well.

What does it take to get into these schools?????? :(

Northwestern was definitely my dream school and I put everything I had into my application and GMAT preparation to make the grade. No idea what the reason is, my interviewer even told me afterward that he felt I was a shoe-in. Needless to say, I won't be re-applying, I don't think there's really anything I could change about my application for the better at this point. In the end, with so many apps, plenty of people are gonna get dinged for almost no reason other than there isn't enough space. Oh well...ain't the end of the world.

I feel worse when I hear people comment on a school being their dream school. It's one of my top choices, but your feeling towards the school is stronger... When I started this process didn't think I'd care as much, but you put so much effort into the applications and the entire process that you end up caring regardless of whether you're 'in love' with a school.. I'm sorry it didn't work out, but you have the right approach. I'm sure you'll be fine and will be able to do whatever you need to no matter where you end up. Best of luck!

Guys - a ding for me as well. Really bummed out - felt I had a very good interview. This app season is proving disastrous for me. Duke interview invites come tomorrow and I feel highly pessimistic now. Tuck hasn't reverted as well. Sh*t! :(

Don't worry! We are a part of a much competitive pool, and thus the stiff competition. Keep doing things right, just like you have done so far. Kellogg has rejected me twice (Yes! I was a re-applicant this year). But, keep ticking and am sure we will land up some place nice!

Wish you best of luck, and Kudos to your profile!

All your schools are Top 10 but don't let one ding 'bleed' onto the other app processes... I feel the same way though, you get pessimistic...

I'm sorry didn't work out. I knew a ton of Alum who pushed for me, thought I was in at Kellogg (waitlisted at worst)... Didn't work out...

Thanks for the kind words. After almost seven years working in China, I was really hoping to be back home in Chicago. Ah well, the booth dream is still alive...and any of my other schools will still be closer to home than Shanghai :)
