The 'D' month is here.



It's December and the day of reckoning is not too far away. I can already sense the fluttery feeling while I wait for my Tuck EA decision and MIT interview invite – both should be out somewhere in the second week of December.


The online forums are already buzzing with a lot of activity, fellow applicants who are tired of the waiting game and cannot take it anymore are posting their feelings on these forums and finding comfort from other's stories. Fuqua is expected to come out with its EA decisions any time now. When I read about a fellow applicant refreshing his email every few seconds looking for that magical mail, I could very well picture myself doing that in the next few weeks. I am guessing that people might have been logging into and refreshing their application page too, which might have led to the application site being down today.


All this does not bode too well for my R2 applications. I have been on the slow side and all these factors do not make it any easier. I get the feeling things are only going to get compounded over the next two weeks.

This is the time when nail cutters are least sold. Why? because most of applicants end up biting their nails. Hahaha :)

I just visited Duke for an event this weekend and several students found out that they got in through early decision. Duke's program seems very strong and the students are amazing. It seems like most of the students are married though so not sure how I feel about that.

Thanks globalbabble.

@Mari - I got the same vibes about the program's strength and the student community during my visit. I cannot comment though on your thoughts about the marital status of students :)
Which other schools r you considering?

Mari said...

Another school I'm considering is USC. They were supposed to release interview invites on Wednesday but I still haven't heard back. I thought I was dinged but when I log into my account, it still says that my app is under review. Have you heard anything about invites for that school?

@Mari..I haven't been tracking much of USC. I hope that you heard from them.
