1) It's BW, so minus 2,000,000 points there.
2) It's BW.
3) It's still BW.
4) How would anyone from BW know what time they stop making calls?

WOW... CONGRATS EVERYONE!!! Dang, I always knew GMATClubbers were good, but it's raining admits right now! Awesome!

We're kicking butt in the Midwest! Now let's hope the coastal news will be good come January!

Timezones seem like an entirely reasonable reason to hold back on calls.. no?

I agree- but I think adcoms believe in calling people up at a reasonable hour. I have not heard of one instance when the adcom called up someone at say 5am or something....

Right, I still have a little hope, but I have to agree. Other than candidates in weird time zones, you'd think GSB would have just started calling earlier in the day in order to get in touch with admits. They wouldn't start late and then save more US admits until tomorrow.

Then again, who knows...until I actually see the rejection letter, I might as well be a little positive.

well even taking the timezones into consideration, if the adcom stops making calls at 5:30 PM CST as has been said to one of the admits, then by the time they start making calls tommorrow, i am thinking it would prob be 9 Am cst.. unless i am totally off on something.
