So... with anxiety being at an all-time high, how are you guys handling it? How are you focusing at work or making time fly?
I'm swamped at work but with any downtime this decision is on my mind :)
Just to recap, we know that the decision will be released on 3/30 starting at 10AM EST. Some calls will be made, but unlike say Booth, not all admitted students will receive the call.

Maybe extreme but I already notified my boss I'll be coming in late on Friday. What's the point? I won't be working or productive Friday morning, regardless of the outcome.
Definitely feeling the tension at this point. It feels like all of my productive efforts are boiling down to this week. Darden admits are being called today and I was practically a useless blob until I got my call. My students were probably wondering what was up with me and why I was a semi-nervous wreck. :lol:

I've been through 3 call days so far and have billed about 5 hours total on those days. I think I'm working from home on Friday. Why fight it at this point?

Totally in agreement there. I took the day off on Friday (mostly because it was a half-day for our students), but now I'm so glad I did. Rest easy for the time being!! You're in the green! :) Congrats.

no, but they announced that they already called all waitlist admits, so long time no see for me.
Good luck to everyone, I cannot stand waiting and reading any more, so I will not follow these pages any more.

I salute you... I've only been through one so far and it was miserable enough. I'll probably be bald by Monday after ripping my hair out over Wharton and Sloan.

Tomorrow is Friday! No? F_ck!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:
It's like I'm kneeing before the queen of England, she has a sword but I don't know whether she's going to ennoble me or decapitate me...
Good idea about WFH on Friday, I wish I could do that.

Round 1 calls came the morning of the actual decision day. I'm not expecting a peep from Wharton til Friday. Now if you don't mind, I need to go back under my desk and continue to rock back and forth in the fetal position.

If I just give you my number now, does that mean you'll call me Friday and let me in? I promise I will act surprised.
