Comparative merits of nyquil and alcohol abuse as sleep aids. I like the direction this conversation has taken.

Lol If me, you and KindaFr34k are all admitted, guess Kellogg should prepare for a wild couple of years...

what was the timing? (couldn't resist taking this to the next level of fixation))

From hearing R1 people recount the story, though, it sounds like it might have been a mistake, as many of them didn't have decisions updated online yet at that hour. Possibly an email meant to go out at 1-2pm was scheduled for am by accident. Check a few pages back on this thread for that, or about 30 pages back to see what people were saying as it happened.

I got my ding in Round 1 shortly after 1AM EST, so I think a little after midnight Evanston time, the Dings and WL applicants get e-slapped in the face. I saw the email over breakfast (~7AM) and checked my status to (not surprisingly) see my ding.

Somehow I was convinced that the admissions people were calling R2 admits today. You can imagine my relief when I got here and found out otherwise!

Glad it ended in a decent surprise! (Though a better surprise would have been to get a phone call.) I don't envy your day tho! I have been a mess knowing that the calls havent even started yet.
