sorry to hear that.

This isn't going so well for the club this year. I think we are now up to 21 dings to 12 admits.

Sorry to hear about the dings. This board is due for some good news. I'm glad to hear they're still releasing decisions despite the drama the other day.

Waitlisted here, too. After Kellogg & Booth dings I guess it is not quite as painful.

Sounds like we won't hear until R2 decision date. Anyone hear otherwise?

This day has been crazy for the glut of Wharton W/Ls, I can understand :)

With said WL in hand and my Duke admit in the bag I'm in for Kellogg R2. Hopefully the technical glitches will be worked out for us, I can't take much more drama!

so it sounds like decisions are being made again. Hopefully tomorrow bring some more good news. I do believe adcoms are in the office next week some though...however that close to the holidays I hope they only give out good news.

Heres to hoping lots of you guys get your decisions tomorrow so you can get on with your vacations without worrying about this.

Essay format question - did you repeat the essay question below the required 1 inch margin a the top of the page or can it be in the margin as a header? I've got tons of room for all but one essay and I might need to stretch as much space as I can. Thanks!

I made it all fit with the prompt in the body of the essay. I did take liberties with font size and left/right margins though.

dude.. letz get over this... mistakes do happen, and to my knowledge, Kellogg has acted as professionally as they possibly can... I know it is brutal to the ones who got affected, my empathies are with them... but it is also time to get over this unfortunate incident...
