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!

Really...I thought they waited till the last day. I had heard it was a "tradition" at GSB.

Venky,

Your decision should be available within a few hours at the most. Just my observation from BW forums.

Fasten your seat belt!!

No, Venky, that message means you have to take the TOEFL again.

Just kidding - and i shouldn't be mean on today of all days - but hang in there! Today is crazy, but I am thinking of all of you!

Ahh.. thanks Oz. I guess that's what I'll tell myself while I gear up for next year.

Here's what it looks like now:

Cornell: Ding w/o interview
CBS: Ding w/ interview
Yale: Waitlist post-interview
Stern: Waitlist w/o interview
Kellogg: Waitlist w/ interview
GSB: Leading to a ding but no formal communication yet

How are things shaping out for you?
