Haha, oh c'mon, they'll totally accept you, despite the beeps :)

You could however, guilt your bf into taking you out for a nice dinner for beeping you during the interview :P

So people are posting on B-Week that their status has switched back to "Application Under Review" (from "invited to interview") since they have interviewed. Has anyone on here checked their status recently to see if theirs has changed? Mine hasn't so far.

forgot to mention that during my interview, my cell phone (which was on silent--I double-checked!) beeped when my boyfriend sent me a text message. I was totally flustered because I couldn't figure out WHY the phone beeped when it was clearly on silent.

To me, that means ding. Totally unprofessional. That makes the choice easier for me :D And more room for you guys!

What brand is the phone? ;)

I always switch mine off. Even if it is silent, it might still be on vibrate and thus generate noise. Plus, there is no radiation :wink:

Actually, I met a Belgian. He said they made a mistake by inviting him, but after they caught the mistake, he'd already bought his flights.

I'm sure that will help his application! I'd looovvvve something like this to happen to me.

Its a blackjack. That had never happened before. I had my phone on silent at my wharton interview and you could hear it buzz. At the Berkeley interview, it was on silent, but then it made the new text message noise. Yeah, I always forget to turn my phone off. Oh well!!

I haven't bothered to look. A status change to Application Under Review is totally inconsequential and not worth thinking about. Seriously--don't torture yourself. Wait til Monday :D unless you get a status change notification directly from the school.

Exactly, there's no point in checking until you get that email or call (however they do it). Or just wait until Tuesday.

mba2010, thats easy to say when you seem to have your mind made up already...I think sometimes curiosity gets the best of all of us. During this process its probably better than most things.

haha, I'm *dying* to know if I will get in or not, but I choose to just wait for that fateful email or phone call in the next 5 days. Hopefully earlier, but otherwise, nothing I can do to rush the process.

Well I am happy to report that the infamous status has changed back to "Under review" for me...for whatever that's worth. I always said I wouldn't be one of those people that freaks out in the last few days waiting for a decision, but I guess I have resorted to it a bit! :) Can't wait to hear something...hopefully they'll start making calls at the end of this week! Good luck to all who are waiting to hear!

The CALLS have begun!!! Someone in Asia just got a call and got in. Last year the decision date was 29th, they started calling on the 26th up to the 27th. That means calls just started today (in Asia)... should last into Saturday.

Oh boy! Good luck!
