In. Holy crap. I'd gone to ridiculous extents to prepare myself psychologically for bad news.

Thanks to everyone on this forum. You've all been a tremendous support community, especially those of you who, like me, were FC'd way back in October.

Congratulations!!!
P.S. Your username is familiar but I see you only registered a few weeks ago. Was it from chat? or another place?
Either way, congratulations and good luck!
If you have a moment or two, it would be helpful for applicants in the coming years (esp from your background/location/etc) if you could post your MBA Application Journey/experience. Things that have helped you, motivated you, were frustrating, and how you overcome them? What would you do differently, etc

We started a forum esp for this purpose: share-your-application-experience-332/
