Good Luck anxious! Let's be positive.
Whatever it is the answer will be for good... who knows?
Perhaps, if we are dinged, they would be making us a favour...

I am in the same situation as well and I am not keeping much hope. but you never know=)
my best hope is to get a wait-list and see it from there on.

Congratulations to all those who have been accepted.

Question: I have not been interviewed yet. I applied to GSB in the 2nd round. Does this mean I have been rejected?

Do we find out our fate by 30th March or is the wait for us in complete limbo longer?

All the best to those (who have not been interviewed) waiting for a reply from GSB.

I'm pretty sure everyone will hear by tomorrow. (today by phone if the news is good, or tomorrow by email if the news is ding or WL) But I could be wrong about that. GL!

I think calls go out until 8pm PST (yes, that late). At least I think they did in R1.

Beer helps. That's how I called it a morning :-)

Wow, talk about coming back from the brink! If I remember correctly, you didn't get the interview invite until about a week or so into March. Congrats!

Hoping for WL myself, at this point. Staying optimistic.
