I guess I am still in there as there is no update. So now that this wait ends, another wait start for a call till this Friday. And if that does not come, I guess there will be a lot more waiting in the coming weeks.... I hate this

I think you'll have to email her as I only see the option to update the email address. Good luck! Hopefully she'll make some calls today.

How long did the call take? I.e. How many calls would they have been able to make before lunchtime in Cambridge?

all of the reported calls have been consulting (or ex consulting) and PE... i've seen 9 across here and livewire

maaaaybe there's a couple left tomorrow for some of the smaller industry groups, grasping at straws... likely going to have to wait this out for another couple months

It's snowing in Boston at the moment... 6-10 inches. Hope that doesn't prevent any calls ;)

hopefully we get an email with next steps and timing in the next day or two!

seems like the process is actually quite different from last year's in terms of timing. Last year they let in a batch of ~20 in early January. This year that batch didn't occur until early February closer to round 2 interview invites. They then let in another ~10 people a few weeks later, wonder if we're on track for that in a few weeks or if the next batch won't occur until closer to round 2 decisions on 3/30?

everyone else just receive that email from HBS admissions about the upcoming webinar, and have a small heart attack?

Well, at least it wasn't the ding email.
