Right here. Last name starts with "K" . . . though I do have to say I'm not feeling at all optimistic at this point.

what % of the decisions do you think have gone out yet. I dont want to be negative and say its over because i believe there is still 2 more hours of calls to go out, right? I also read several posts back that at 3 pm chicago time a lady had told on of the students that they were half way done with the invites so i would think there is still prob 25% left.. What do you all think??

NYC here, no call, last name w a k, but my gf (we applied jointly) has a last name with one of the last letters of the alphabet. Neither of us got a call - double ding!

Still holding out for the 7pm Central supposed timeline, but I don't know if I believe it. If they haven't called EITHER of us, it's probably a ding both.

Back to the working life!

I got an early call this morning (830 Pacific Time), and was admitted! I was a waitlisted Round 1 applicant and had forgotten that tomorrow was the decision day. What a pleasant surprise!

Just when I was set on attending UCLA, Chicago has to give me something to think about. Anyone else choosing between Booth and UCLA?

Congrats to all who are in. GL to all who haven't heard yet. I got a call the following day and I'm in Oz - so GL to any Australians/NZ'ers still waiting! Are there any???

Meanwhile, I just have to say, (in response to latammc's geek shout-out), did anyone else see the quote from rhyme about "Hahaha, that would be awesome. Could I have a cape and mask and all that cool stuff too?" and immediately think "I put on my robe and wizard hat" (bash.org)

Also @ Bangalore Kid: "They're already done with Asia ??!! Damn are these guys Mongol Horsemen or what ??"


Today GC has been awesome. Quotes from people were hilarious. I just couldnt get out of the forum...yes I am super geeky, maybe that's why I LOL with The big bang theory!

GL to all who have not received news today, chances are you will receive the email with good news directly...

Other than that I don't get it

No call for me yet either.

Anyone want to handicap the chances some acceptances will be given tomorrow? I read earlier some R1 decisions were distributed via email on the decision notification date.

Am I really allowing myself to go crazy that I have not heard from Booth one day BEFORE the posted notification date?!?!

I am in DC.

No call whatsoever. Should I still have hope? I mean, realistically? Would it be possible that they were not able to call everyone?

What a terrible day.
