I know I have no chance but I can't help freakin' out now!!! :x
I read somewhere that interview does not have much weight for Booth, perhaps people meant that it actually has NO weight in the admission decision... :oops:

By chance, are you venky? There was another guy a few years who had exactly the same avatar and I believe was also from vietnam. Just random coincidence.

That's a good thing. Although, right now, I'm not enjoying the lesson. Life is full of uncertainty which makes it interesting.

All those Liquidity Preference Fridays! Alcohol works wonders!

My guess is it comes from a 312 # (or 773) but not sure.

I definitely met the two of you on my visit in mid February...right? How many wait listed Israeli couples could there be from R1?

Congrats!

Sorry Rhyme I'm not venky.
Knowing that Booth is now calling Israel makes me feel that my time zone is now history for admits

If that's the case, they seem to be going through the calls fairly quickly...as soon as someone from the US posts "i got a call!" my nerves are done for.

and to answer your question rhyme, my chat is blocked at work! otherwise i'd be on for the entire day.

re: chat
___
My chat is blocked at work. In fact, I'm feeling a little guilty about obsessively checking and posting on this right now. But hey, it's one day. And still working (multitasking skillz, ha ha)
