express train to dingsville :P

A bit surprising, but I am impressed that the adcom was able to smell that I had no strong desire to go...

Now I'm really on a cliff!

I was thinking the same thing! :) You do something like this Wharton ([color*=*red] Wharton [/* color*] without spaces or asterisks)

My first official Ding! Feels like getting dumped before the first date. Only this was more time consuming and expensive than first dates.

Rejected

Just printed the letter in color, put a smiley face at the bottom and hung it up on the old wall in my office next to my vacation pictures. Somehow this seems small relative to everything else. :-D

Oh and if it helps anyone else - 710/3.65 UG from a low ranked school (now part of a high ranked school for some reason)/25/Indian/Worked at a top IBank in Engineering, then at a Transit Authority as a project manager and now in Muni finance as a financial consultant and manager/Started a couple of organizations at school and in community/Awesome recs (read them)

Though as a necessary caveat I must add that I did put in considerable effort for the this school and on a level am truly disheartened about the outcome. So please, do not see my nonchalant receipt of this news as taking away from the hard work that anyone here has put in, accepted or rejected.

Ding here too !! 2 days and 2 dings......bring them on, I have heart for few more. Fortunately or Unfortunately, no school that I applied to is releasing its decision tomorrow otherwise there could have been a good chance of making a hat-trick. Need to restart the life with $250 + $250 already in minus.
