Nope, I'm not submitting until R2. Have most of the app done though, just have to do my essays.

Is there any benefit to submitting this early besides the personal benefit to get to put this away?

I definitely don't want to be the first one in line. Then they'll have all this time to scrutinize your application.

I think that's over-thinking. I prefer to get it out of the way and work on my Stern app. Cornell is very yield conscious and being first to submit will prob be a good thing.

I'd apply R1 if you didn't owe a deposit by the same day I'd hear the decision from HBS and Sloan

I'll wait til R2. Haven't got the desired GMAT score (gonna retake in 2-3 weeks). Oh man I start to feel a mess of everything needs to be done before Nov...

Apart from Cornell I am thinking about NYU (MSc. RE) and Brandeis as a backup. Any comment?

Ya, next week is going to be bit hectic, so in the course of things I might forget to even submit the application and my home internet connection is down at the moment so didnt want to push my luck any more.

The whole cornell application, especially the 2 mangy looking 400 word essays really scare me. What idea will they get of an applicant from those 2 essays... thats my main cause of concern.

Avi, you already got in CBS?

Congrats Avi! 2 submitted so far eh? I hope to submit Stanford/UCLA the week of 10/15, probably on 10/19 or 10/20. Then pull out Haas and work the heck out of that for a week or two and submit beginning of November. Let's hope my plan holds!

Here's a stupid question:

R1 Deadline is 10/10. Does that mean 23:59 10/09 or 23:59 10/10?

yeah, and watch it! I didn't see the time duke was due, so assumed it was midnight. I posted something about having 12 hours before it was due, though it was really only 4. Someone on this board saved my arse.

Ahh, gmatclub, so near and dear to me!
