Yep, right now Northwestern is your school, and if you get into MIT then you can change your avatar.

you never know where you will end up. I thought my chances at Chicago were the best of my three R1 apps but goes to show how little anyone can know about this process.

And conversely, I thought Kellogg was my best chance of my R1 apps and I'm expecting a ding or WL at best (haven't heard yet)

I echo everyone else's holiday wishes and acceptances in the new year. I'm just glad I didn't find this web site until a week or two ago - I don't know how you all found the time to complete the apps and essays while constantly checking the forums...!!

welcome MiamiMBA! Yeah, this forum should be listed as our "extracurricular/community service" activity in our essays :wink:

But yes, Merry Xmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Years everyone! I owe so much to all of you that I wish I could thank you in person! Maybe I will some day! :)

Merry Christmas to all of you. I consider GMATClub the best Christmas present ever. During the application process, there were times when I was discouraged and overwhelmed. GMATClub helped keep my morale up and gave me the confidence to do my best. Thanks and enjoy the holidays!
