Thanks guys..
The best strategy would be to keep the failures aside and gear up for next challenge.

Yeah thanks guys,

Appreaciate your consoling...I had a crap morning especially because I really put in a lot of effort for the Judge applications and I still dont understand what it was..... I even showed my application to a Judge alumni and he thought it was tops..... Said invited me for the interview so its not all bad and I promise to showcase my strengths to the best of my ability ...... but seriously no interview from Judge.....when i was
dinged from HBS, I was like *shrugs* its HBS.... enough said, but Judge is sometimes not even regarded in the top 10.

Anyway enough whinging....I'm off to get smashed.....that will cheer me up...

I only applied to 3 UK schools Judge, Said and LBS..... so hopefully LBS will at least invite me for an invite tommorow. (then I can get smashed again, for different reasons

Amit05 and sumidi -- I agree with the others. Judge has been extremely tough to crack this year for us GMATclubbers, so don't be too disheartened. I think we all should probably start a JBS Dings Club, as there's plenty of us on here.

LOL, just my luck that an hour after I tell you to wait a few more days, Said comes back and proves me wrong. :lol:

Hey fellas, chin up to those with dings. I was dinged all across the board last year, but eventually got that admit this year. Good things happen to those who wait and persist.

Today is Cambridge R2 interview decision deadline as well as R1 wait list review deadline (although, I somehow doubt that the latter will be indeed the case...).
Still, let's hope for some good news! Best of luck to all still in the game!

Hi Greenoak,
I ain't holding my breath for today. The small Cambridge adcom size, and the lack of an application fee in an economic crisis would probably mean that they are swamped. It's just a matter of time before I get put out of my interview waitlist misery.

Hi Buffdaddy,
I agree that they are most probably under time pressure right now.
However, I think that they might have over-estimated their R2 app volume a bit: while it is still greater than in R1 and R1.5, the discrepancy may be not so big as it was the case last year.
Also, I too heard that their admission team is not that large, but I knew nothing about the Admission Committee itself or their decision making procedures. Perhaps, in their situation, 'size matters not' :wink:

Hi Roomba. I think you meant Oxford R2 interview, judging from the info in your profile.
If it's indeed so, you don't need to worry: it may take up to a week to arrange a date with them. If you mean Cambridge interview - then, well, I'll join Buffdaddy in his inquiries...

buffdaddy

Cambridge seems to have missed its deadline. again

At least, we are not alone

Last time, somebody called them and they confirmed that the decisions will be postponed for a couple of days. Will you be writing/calling them next week?
(Btw, I start to suspect that they have lost my app...)

To those who still wait for JBS R2 decisions – just have seen info on another forum confirming that the remaining applicants will hear on Monday-Tuesday. Have no idea if the same is true for waitlisted in R1. Well, I hope it’s just a little longer…

you took the cake!!. Someone on BW reported an invite and I have heard nothing. Given that you are quiet greenoak, I assume you've heard nothing either.

We live to fight another day.
