Waitlisted at Tepper

Well thats 2 in 2. I thought I'd make this one but...
Without an admit in hand I would need in my backup school application in addition to Harvard. More work, more pain. Hope all this pays of in the end.

Waitlisted at Tuck

Somehow I felt that this was going to happen but I don't feel any emotion as in dissapointment, relief or joy. I guess waitlist is supposed to do that to you i.e. confuse you. Tuck's note mentions that very few people(what is very few?) are waitlisted so that leads me to beleive that something might come out of this. FAQs suggest that they are not looking for supplemental material but for the candidate to show his interest in the program and the school. Not quite sure how to go about it but I better get started on my waitlist strategy now.

Darden done and Bangalore here I come

Well! I have completed my Darden application and am pretty ga-ga about it. Havin planned 3 weeks for Darden app it didn't expect to be submitted it just the day before but as usual I procrastinated till the last minute. I managed most of it in the last 3 days. The essays are very similar to Tuck and to some extent you can say the same about the school. Hence it wasn't that difficult a task.

I can be pretty pleased at the fact that I have absolutely no App'ing or work to do for the next 2 weeks. I am going to be in bangalore on vacation. My brother's getting married and its going to be a really fun trip. Certainly earned a vacation with all the work i have done last couple of months.

Finally : Attn Bangalore MBA bloggers - How about a blogger get togather or a 'Beer Challenge'
Thanks to Marina for starting that. Its becoming quite a popular event worldwide ;)
