Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

1) What schools are on your list right now? Northwestern, Chicago, Loyola
2) What is the state of your current preparations? Finished GMAT yesterday, trying to clear my head and figure out what comes next to meet the first round deadlines.
3) What's the scariest part of the process at this point? Realizing that I set my course to move to Chicago without much of a safety net if I don't get in. Gotta keep life interesting though...
4) How serious is your pursuit at this point? Now that the GMAT is out of the way I am ready to kick it into gear and take the next step with my career. Need to get the ball rolling on letters of rec, but not sure how to do all this without Fall 09 applications posted yet.
Anyone have any advice on how to get started before the schools post the apps? Is it safe to assume the same essay prompts year over year? What about letter of recommendation formats - should each rec writer make a custom letter for each school?

1) What school is on your list right now? Northwestern, Chicago, Ross, Berkeley, (maybe Stanford..though I doubt I have a chance at all)
2) What is the state of your current preparations? 4 dings (Stanford, Berkeley, Yale, Northwestern) and 2 WLs (Chicago and Ross). I re-took the GMAT in April, and I improved my score from a 690 to a 730. Now I'm picking online extension courses to combat my dismal sub 3.0 gpa. I just got invited to join the advisory board of the non-profit that I volunteer at.
3) What's the scariest part of the process at this point? Looking at this thread and realizing how many qualified applicants there are. Realizing that if I have to reapply, I will have spent over $6K trying to get into business school. Spending another year (or two) hating my job. Thinking about writing all those essays again.
4) How serious is your pursuit at this point? 100% to apply either 2009 and 2010. I just don't know if enough has happened to me since January to get into a top program. I'm in the financial services sector, so the next time I apply, I want to be sure that I get in. I know schools are trending younger, but even if I wait until 2010 to apply, I'll be 27 when I matriculate. Hopefully that's not too old...
---------------------------------------------
Never mind, I got off the waitlist at Chicago!
