Silence here. Probably no Booth for me. But they weren't one of my top choices. Best of luck to everyone regardless of the decision. This doesn't determine whether you will be successful in the future - only you can determine that! Cheers!

Unless you're living in timezones GMT+10/11/12, chances appear pretty slim to being admitted without a phone call last night.

Booth stings since I did not have my hopes for it, then I was invited to interview. I went to campus and did the whole thing. I was left enamored.

This is what you want to see:


directory-of-mba-applicant-blogs-164346-600.html#p1506832

It's 15%.

Self-admittedly the author notes that sample sizes are rather weak and data fluctuates a lot year to year. It does seem Booth is more waitlist friendly compared to its peers. I think they are concerned as being used as a foot stool on the way to H/S/W.

If I don't have a surprise in when I check my status, I would hope to be waitlisted to push for my candidacy.
