I have expectations....but it's to get dinged

Thanks, my plan is to apply to my reaches this round since I will be more than happy to go to any of them and also so I don't have that nagging feeling of not trying for the top later. I feel extremely fortunate to have received an invite to Harvard and am doing a few practice interviews with friends for that now.

nope - maybe they didnt mean "by five" but five.

Haha, that is annoying. 5PM on a Friday! Come on, Wharton. Show us some mercy/love.

In last year's thread the first post saying he had an invite came at 4:22pm. So hopefully we will know by 4:30pm. They were also saying that the email came in later, everyone got to see the invite on the website before.
