Is anyone else having problems with their pdf application before hitting submit? Parts of it looks all streaky and blurry with missing fields even though my application is completely filled out. I've been waiting for an IT solution for a few hours now but I'm getting antsy and want to hit submit! I'm not sure if the issue is just at my end and the AdCom would be able to see it perfectly.....

HELP if anyone has it!!!

I didn't have any problems reviewing the PDF. If you're working on a slow computer, it might be taking time to render the image of the PDF. When I would scroll down, it would take a few seconds for the data to populate above the dotted lines for each field. Good luck!

I saw the same streaking problem before I submitted. Since it's on their portion of the application I figure that it will all work out and submitted anyway.

I use a Mac, which might somehow be related to the rendering problems.

oneofmany and alyzat: What Operating Systems do you use?

I also use Mac and it was blurry in the Finder but worked fine with Adobe Reader. No need to worry.

I think it's each forum member's job to update the roll call with their info…

Submitted, with my last recommendation coming in minutes before the deadline. I'll probably get my recommenders some gift cards, but maybe I can come up with something more creative....

Good luck everyone!

in for R2.

I reported my official score to HBS when took the GMAT test (with the 5 free schools) little more than 2 years ago. Do I need to officially report the same score again, now that I submitted for R2 today?

hopefully this won't be too long of a wait, dee's blog says invites should go out in the first half of feb. looks like all the schools are moving a little bit faster this year... although im sure it doesn't feel like that for everyone.

which actually is length for HBS. round 1 they started sending invites in 14 days. this time they're looking for more time, it seems.

anyways, in for R2. had a problem submitting and got to the credit card page a few minutes after noon. emailed them and didn't get a response by early afternoon, called the office and the person said the app was still open and to go ahead and submit and it'll be round 2.

submitted at 5 EST and i got an email saying it was late but it would still be considered for round 2. and dee's blog stressed noon in caps, ha.

New to the forum. Good luck to all :)

Could someone let me know HBS requires an official report of the GMAT score in addition to the unofficial reporting done in the online app?

Thanks!
