Count me in!

Ladies and Gentlemen, Kwam has officially ended his application season, for his life! :lol:

I'd like, especially here as Stanford's application is by far in my opinion the hardest, to thank everyone who helped me here. I think that Eventually my application deserve a look, whether or not I will get an interview, well that's another thing.

Good Luck everyone!

All the best for your future, kwam! I decided to drop my Stanford application only so that one of you three (kryzak, grad_mba or kwam) can take up the seat left by me. So I did my part! Now its your turn.

Logged back into my application, and found this on the first (post-login) page:

---------------------
We must receive your application materials by 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on:

Round 1 - 22 October, 2007
Round 2 - 7 January, 2008
Round 3 - 21 March, 2008
----------------------

As this was found within Apply Yourself, I'd go with 5 PM PST.

CONGRATS kwam! I hope to say the same about my application career after Kellogg goes in (still not wanting to let go).

Stanford was the hardest in terms of pouring my soul into my essays. Kellogg is the hardest in terms of EVERYTHING that I had to cover in their essays, each of which asks for everything. :P

I think you deserve an interview kwam, and hopefully you'll get in too. Right now my chances ain't looking so great, but I'll still hold out hope for this coming week. mNeo, sorry to hear you dropped Stanford... I was hoping to join you at some admit weekend somewhere!

Agreed that this was a tough one. It is the hardest one out of all the apps I have done. I really had to think hard for Essay A and the app just asks for a lot of details.

But I am done! This is my last app ever! I am putting on my waiting suit. :)

Good luck to all of us!

Call me crazy. I just became recently attracted to the Stanford MBA program in December. I started my app on friday and turned it in today. Worst case scenario, I donated $250 to Stanford. Otherwise, it was well worth it

Wow, the shortest time I heard of before this was 1 full week (the guy took a week off work to do all the essays). To finish Stanford's in 3 days. That's a record!

Deadline is over! Good luck to all R2'ers! Hope you have better luck than us R1'ers.

Here's my prediction: Stanford got so many applications in R1 this year, because word on the street is that chances are slightly better in R1, so they decided to interview the outstanding candidates first and admit them. The others who generally would have been admitted in R1 are going to be placed in a waitlist to compare with R2 applications (which currently is lower than R1, according to here and admissions411).

I can bet you they have been comparing the R2 submissions the past couple weeks and this week with R1 applications, and some more interviews should come out by the end of this week or early next week (once they decide some of the R1'ers are actually better than R2'ers).. Also, they probably wanted to see how many total applications they'll get for the season (since R3 doesn't really matter), before deciding how many R1'ers to admit.

sound confusing? Probably is... but that's my prediction. I see a lot of waitlists coming on January 24th... (which I would HAPPILY be on)
