Sorry to hear that. Good on you for keeping your sense of humor, though! 8-)

That's a shame. With the final R2 results just coming out, hopefully some late movement will free up a spot for you at either Tuck or Kellogg!

Thanks. I submitted two extra essays and two extra letters of recommendation (including one from an alum) and my alum friend called Rod. Also made another visit and even got a few minutes to discuss my application with an admissions officer. Sadly, the result was still a rejection from the waitlist.

I still think its strange I never got an email. I would have never known to check the website unless I had paid attention to gmatclub.

Think I'm going to throw in the towel and focus on other things in my life.

Best of luck to everyone still waiting!

So, apparently there are 200 people on WL and there could be movement later this month. With that said, I am now scrambling to send my update ASAP. There is hope for all of us yet.

I sent in educational (gmat, grad classes), professional (performance ranking, new project) and extracurricular (award) updates. Nothing too elaborate, but hope it's not too late!

It was mentioned on the chat that there could be movement in May, so I guess we will find out.

My back up plan if I do not make it off the MIT wait-list. I only applied to two schools this year due to severe injuries sustained during combat operations in Afghanistan 18 months ago. So...I am going to cast a wider net and re-apply to Sloan and apply to Tuck, Yale SOM, Columbia and NYU. In the meantime I continue to finish up my medical retirement from the army and I will try and land an internship for the fall. But hopefully, everything works out with Sloan this time around. Good Luck to everyone!

Just in case everyone did not know, deposits were due today! I think we should see some activity in the next 2 weeks, hopefully.

haven't heard a word yet and am patiently waiting... past waitlist chat indicated they will be utilizing the waitlist extensively this year, so hope that is the case!
