What aspect of the application did you think was the most critical ?
Know GSB... I was talked about a half dozen experiences with the school/students, naming names and being very specific.
What was unique about your application that you think helped you the most ?
Chicago's essays are very much on the creative side, so everybody probably had a different approach to essay 2 and the ppt. I think in the end however, my work experience and goals are somewhat different from those of the normal pool of applicants.
How personal / formal were your applications ?
Not sure what this means. My goals essay was pretty formal, but my ppt was purposefully casual. The format I presented it was somewhat of a gimmick... it wouldn't surprise me if others did a similar thing, so I am glad I got it in this first round.
How did you think your slides helped you ? What were some of the things that you focused on in your slides ?
My slides were completely focused on my extracurricular activities, so I guess it humanized me.
Were you over the word limit ? If so how much ?
I think I was over in both written essays, but not by much. (< 10%)

I'm very happy and somewhat proud of getting into GSB, it's a great school and fits perfectly well for my desired aspirations; however, I'm not yet withdrawing to other applications and will send S application (though I think it's very hard, especially because of my age). Am I allowed to use the avatar in my situation?
I'm already planning at the end of Feb start of march, to visit GSB, perhaps other school I would be still in the process and S, but everybody tells me that once I see the Harper Center I won't change the school for nothing.
Anyway, something tells me that I'm heading Chicago next Fall
The avatar I took from the Admitted students site, I'm very impressed with the information provided, especially on the virtual day at the GSB.
