yeah, I know. I was asking rhyme.
what about you? still no calls?
maybe it's time you try and call or mail admissions, just to show your interest in their programs?

I was contemplating that
But was wooried if that strategy would backfire
I tried contacting chicago asking them why my "tests status verified" is NO
and whether that ws the reason of delay

they got back saying that they verify tests only after admission is confirmed

and also told me that my app is sstill being processed

I've actually been in both. Wierd, yea I know. I was IT for many years, started transitioning away slowly, and then moved to finance (really, its management consulting with a financial twist). My last position has brought me closer to IT again. My work history is a bit of a mess in that respect - it begs explanation.

I was just surprised that with the IT background you had problems with Q section of GMAT. Or is it just my misperception of all the ITs as quant proficient people? :wink:
I would not call it a mess, but rather a diverse experience. Mine is straightforward enough to be boring, on the contrary.

The original question in this thread still remains unanswered
Are there any GMATclubbers whose app went to completion on 26 oct and have got call (wharton and GSB chic)

One reason could be 60% of applicants submit thier app within 24 hours of deadline and hence the delay.

Ok Whatever keeps me happy for 3 more days :lol:
