We noticed you are actually not timing your practice. Click the START button first next time you use the timer.
There are many benefits to timing your practice, including:
The emotions you experience while waiting for an acceptance to b-school.
1. Anxiety - decision day has finally come.... 2. Happiness - for the people who have received the acceptance call. 3. Delusion - what is going on here? there is a conspiracy going on!!! 4. Anger - for those you felt happy for in step 2. 5. Acceptance - either by the b-school or accepting that you've been rejected.
I'm some where around 3. haha

It's definitely a roller coaster. Waiting to hear is the worst part though. I even got a bit nervous waiting for UCLA to call even though I didn't have plans on accepting their offer.

Looking at Anderson stats from US News, it looks like they only got 638 applications and made 419 offers @ 65% acceptance rate.
The fact that an admit was virtually a guarantee, your nervousness is a great testament to how nerve racking this process is.

In business school applications, nothing is ever assured. If they had too many consultants this year, there's a good chance I might not have gotten in, no matter what my credentials are. That's part of the reason this whole process is frustrating. To a certain extent, this is all up to complete chance.

For schools with a high volume of applicants, that is certainly true. Not so much for schools with acceptance rates close to 70%.
Does your online status change soon after receiving the acceptance call? What does it say?

The online status won't be updated until tomorrow. You get the call and probably sometime tomorrow morning there will be an email sent out and your status will be updated.
Phew...FINALLY got the call from Courtney (she interviewed me!)! I AM IN!! The long agonizing wait is over... This forum has been REALLY helpful (a special shout out to packet here! )..for support with sharing info to continuing to keep up the hopes to providing tidbits of speculation and humor and ease the nerves!
Good luck to the folks waiting for the call..active contributors and lurkers alike! It is gonna happen soon!
