soooo i logged in to look...and man....just goes to show you how little i knew back then... USC is not my #3.... ross is right no... anyway here is where it stands 1. NYU - interviewed - heard nothing 2. UCLA - interviewed - heard nothing 3. USC - interviewed - heard nothing 4. Yale - denied without interview 5. Ross - accepted with $ 6. UNC - accepted with $$$$ and so yea... if i were to do it at this moment it would be 1. NYU 2. UCLA 3. ROSS 4. USC 5. UNC 6. Yale and i'm sure many folks are similar...this is why i don't think they are as ranking sensitive as you guys think.

Yea, after I submitted my apps, I kept researching programs and had a few flop around. 1. Haas - Never heard a peep (even about receiving my app) 2. Kelley - Admitted; waiting on packet for $s 3. McCombs - Interviewed - heard nothing new 4. Ross - Early Ding with no interview 5. Marshall - Interviewed - heard nothing new 6. Anderson - Same as Hass And if I were to redo 1. Kelley & McCombs 3. Haas 4. Marshall (the proximity to home has been hurting this one) 5. Anderson (same problem as Marshall) Going to be a real toss up if I get both Kelley and McCombs; Here's to hoping the Fellowship makes it an easy decision

Maybe you called them Hass in your essays.

Maybe you called them Hass in your essays. Haha

Confession: I once discovered, upon later review, that I had repeated a word (As in "I really want an an MBA") in a submitted essay. MS Word didn't catch it, and apparently my repeated proofreading hadn't either. I did not receive an interview invitation from that school, not that it's saying much considering my record of failure.

I had to go make sure I didn't make that type of blunder; I woulda had major lulz had I done something so stupid. But I did notice a different kind in my essays. I never once mention Haas in it once; which after reading this board I think is frowned upon by the schools.

Honestly, I think small typos are more common than you might think. Obviously, misspelling the name if the school is significant. I made a couple. Stuff happens. I had one in my Yale essay and they still gave me an interview.

That's great, you should like your chances at NYU if that was your #1!!!!!

you would think right...but i think everyone else that interviewed same day as me got the email notification yday...so i think it's WL for me... such a crazy process...so many ifs and buts that could chart the next 2-5 years of my life.
