rhyme, there's a chance I may be moving close to your city shortly. And sorry, I know you did not want me to get admitted by Kellogg, but there's nothing I could do. They admitted me, I only applied.

Cheers.L

Of course I wanted you to get admitted. I want everyone to suceed. I can just sit here and be green with envy. BTW, you never called me that morning... I slept right through

I guess it doesnt matter, if you end up in chicago anyway

Sorry about that, mate. I slept till around noon and had to pack and go really fast. Maybe next time, or during the DAK. I still owe you dinner or something. :wink:

Thanks again. L.

Hey guys... I need some insight. The website says that decisions will be mailed out by March 26 provided you request an off-campus visit before December 22. I requested early Jan and interviewed two weeks ago. Can I expect a decision soon? Forgive my ignorance, but does Kellogg make phone calls?

I am on the WL from R1. I think I originally provided my home number, so I guess that is where they would call to notify me if I got in. However, my status on the website still shows the Waitlist letter from January 8th.

May the gods look down upon you today and bless you with an admit and both Kellogg and GSB and may you choose GSB because, dangit, we need more gmatclubbers there.

they will call you if you are admitted, email if you're dinged or WL.

sorry, can't comment on the other part of your question...

Rhyme, thanks for the support. All I need is one admit. I'd be very happy with either one at this point.

Hello All,

I have been a silent spectator for long (since December) and havent posted a lot of messages. I have to thank you all though for all the information you all have so candidly provided to help so many people.

I got the admit call on Friday evening. I have been admitted to the MMM program and also recieved the F.C. Austin Scholarship.

Stats:

- bachelors in engg from India (IIT), gpa: 3.8/4.00, gold medalist for all round performance (awarded to 1 student in each graduating class)
- masters in engg from an ivy league in US, gpa: 3.4/4.0
- 3.5 yrs work ex (mgmt consulting from a top tier firm; not one of the top 3 however)
- real estate start-up in 2004. still work part time on it
- 750 gmat
- extremely solid recs; big names and great detail
- decent essays (i think i could have done better if i had more time)

I have a question for all of you: is it a problem to move to finance/i-banking from the MMM program? I have heard mixed responses. Some say it's easier than the regular MBA since you are stronger in quant and others say it's harder since you are supposedly interested in mfg. Any comments?

Good luck!
