Based on Gmat Club statistics, I estimate that around 45-50 people will still be called this morning prior to 9 AM CST or will be called in a few hours after their Acceptance through the system.

that's a bold first post. i like it. this is like a boy that has dumped a girl but wants to hook up with her so he tells her he still loves her. she knows it's a lie, but she wants to believe. this site makes me emotional.

please share your reasoning. I can't believe I wasn't called. Thought I was in. probably my biggest disappointment in a number years.

Rhyme, Tuck, latammc and anyone else who enjoyed the story of me going to the gym during decisions calls, getting a missed call and realising my crappy cellphone service does not have voicemail....

I did get an email from adcom saying they had tried to call me (so it WAS them!) and asking for a suitable time to call back. They did not say why or mention any "good news" etc. Hopefully it's an admit but time will tell..

I don't recall any calls coming the day of the deadlines last year. I think it is a very rare event. I need to start doing some research on part time programs in Chicago.

Does it feel as though there were less North Americans who reported admits than we would have expected? Or is this forum simply not have as many active members this time around?



Also, does anyone have an answer for my question about the email? (If you get admitted, does the email say "your status has changed"? or does it have a "Congrats, you've been admitted!" message?)
