INSEAD September 2011 intake waitlist

I wonder, how many of the 1st round waitlisters are still here?

Am I the only one left?

Nay I am still here from R1, checking the feed regularly and hoping to see some good movement soon.

Good luck to all!

I wonder if someone could consolidate the R1/R2 waitlisters list and update in the first post

Hope there may be some movement next week. Though with Insead's high yield, most admits will take up the offer. Do I understand correctly that if an admit decline, WL applicant with similar profile/stats gets the place?

I am still here from R1

I just got the +33 call..... I'm IN :):):):):):)

Congrats MBAyer it's worth waiting for isn't it?

Hope to follow your steps too...

I'm in, too!!!!!
I got the magic +33 call about 4 hours ago.

Good luck to everyone waiting !

I also got the call today.
WL from R1.

Congrats to those earning the coveted spots in INSEAD!

Unfortunately, I am not one of the lucky one. Last Tue, I received an email from INSEAD to ding me. The email, whose tone was not too friendly, did not tell me the reason why I was declined. It asked me not to re-apply either, even if I re-applied, it would not be likely that I could be accepted, given the fierce competition among strong candidates. The email case as if it told me that's the end of the world.

Worse still, one day earlier, I sent out a letter to update the AdCom my achievements made throughout the past 6 months and to restate my commitment and interest in INSEAD. To save my critical conditions, I sent the softcopy of my letter immediately via email to the decision maker (who sent the decline letter to me). I sincerely requested the AdCom to re-consider my application with the letter I just sent one day before. Since then, I prayed everyday to get INSEAD's good news........ On Sat, 2 days ago, when I woke up in the morning, I got her reply that after reviewing my letter, the AdCom still maintained their decision.

I was out of luck, as I always blamed myself, what if I sent the decision-maker an email attached with the pdf of the letter, would it have changed their decision? My world might be changed because of one day difference. Sigh........

Btw, on the same day I sent the letter, i.e one day before I got the decline email, I bought a package of hotel and air-tickets to Singapore for the In-house Event on 25 Mar. I should have waited one day more to buy the package.....

Anyway, good luck to all of you!! I will still stay tuned to this forum, and look forward to hearing good news from each of you.

Heyy thanks... it's definitely worth waiting, but i also have an admission from LBS, so i'm in a big confusion right now, please heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!!!!

you're welcome to give your opinion on what to choose!

Good Luck for all...

Go for LBS and leave the vacancy to us waitlisters!
Joking aside, I don't think you'll lose off choosing either one so it's really up to you. I'd personally prefer LBS if I were in such a situation though.

I׳m in!!!!!!!

On of the happiest days of my life

MBAyer, jinageee, ulysis. chukibu,

Congratulations on your admits guys, well done. Good gracious me, there is finally some movements on the WL.

MBAyer, good on you with LBS and Insead. If you haven't made a decision after all the essays, interviews, chats to students, alumni. Well, just flop a coin. There are plenty takers for Insead on this thread.

MBAyer, jinageee, ulysis. chukibu - many congrats to all of you ........ I'm sure it's an amazing feeling ......

if you could briefly write about your profiles, it'll be hugely helpful for all of us ..........
