Essays and application deadlines for Fall 2012 entry have not been posted. I just checked today. I am feeling anxious and want to get started already!

As for those who asked about their chances based on gmat. I know someone who got into LBS with a gmat score of 620; however, she has a really fantastic story and a harvard undergrad to compensate for the low score.

My gmat score is also 700. In my humble opinion, as long as it is 700 and above, the gmat score alone cannot keep you out. So at this point, it's really about your story and also your extracurricular activities that will form a holistic picture of what kind of candidate you are (and how competitive you are).

Would everyone mind sharing their post-MBA goals?

I would personally like to go the entrepreneur route, focusing on new media and mobile.
