So...just thought I'd quickly post my situation here to get some thoughts:
I was dispatched on an urgent last minute business trip to London (I work out of NYC) the week of the MIT R1 deadline. Was pulling double time to try and put the finishing touches on my application and also fulfill my various work responsibilities. With the time difference and everything, I ultimately submitted my complete application at 5PM EST on deadline day, when I believe the deadline was actually noon. I called admissions (from London) and they stated that it would still count as an R1 app, but would be designated/stamped as a "late". Since it's a done deal i cant really stress about it now, not much in my control...and certainly fully understand that everyone has their own extenuating circumstances to deal with and that therefore there is no room for any kind of excuse. Just was curious what (if any) thoughts ppl had on how negative of an impact this will have on my chances.
For what its worth, stats are:
770, 3.45 Materials Science, decent EC, 3 years of WE at matriculation in Citigroup Business Development (executing due dilly / inorganic transactions for our corporate banking business).
Apols for the long post, and appreciate the forum it has been very insightful throughout the process

Oh sorry also just to add the split on the GMAT as I understand MIT cares about quant score in particular, it was 49 math 47 verbal.
