is that it guys for people who did not get the calls?
wow this really is heartbreaking, hours and hours ..... of preparation, applied to 4 schools, nothing panned out.
i have to seriously think about my application before i attempt the next one.
congrats to people who got in. i envy you but very happy for you.

jeez, i simply cannot think of one more year of job. i was already dreaming about getting to a school in 2009.
i just can't seem to get over my misery


Don't give up just yet. I would imagine that at the least there is still hope of being on the waitlist. Can someone confirm this?

Yes, I can confirm that there is a chance to be waitlisted - last year, I think there were a good amount of R1 applicants on the waitlist that actually were admitted in R2.

Sorry man. You are truly a stand up guy and I know you will get into a GREAT school. You are on the right track. I wish I was smart and focused enough to pursue this course when I was your age.

Has anyone got into both booth and kellogg? it's usually either one or the other from last year. And it seems that trend is so far continuing.

In at Kellogg, WL at Booth. Still have a chance to make both. I can actually really see myself fitting in at both, despite the differences.
