Congratulation fionaS and good luck for your interview. Thanks to everybody posting here. Reading you help a lot while waiting for an invite from gsb. Good luck everybody. Posted from my mobile device

Mine is still "Submitted" Cheers,

My application status still shows "submitted" as well. I emailed AdCom last week - they replied saying not to attach much importance to online status. They said that as long as the application was submitted before deadline, it will be reviewed in Round 1. Online status does not necessarily reflect actual status of the application.

Why do they make this process so traumatic and painful? Mentioning a date clearly would help all of us. HBS clearly has a much more efficient and much less traumatic process!

HBS also has a gender program in the year 2013. You just worked your butt off to put the app together. Kick back, have a drink and take a load off

another 5 days of fun, coming right up

No kidding right! While not thrilled about not getting an invite at HBS, this might be worse. Just dragging out the pain - I have just already accepted the idea of not getting an interview since I can't sit on pins and needles for a month!

To those invited: Did you guys contact your interviewers by phone or by email? Do they prefer to be contacted by phone or email? Others, please feel free to express your opinions. I heard Stanford interviews are pretty casual and conversational. I usually prefer to call people and say hello. I got an invite last week, but it seems that my interviewer is quite busy and replies my email with only a few words. In such a context, is it still a good idea to call and say hello?
