I haven't heard back from the school. The adcom had acknowledged my application and given me 1/15 as the date for decision. What's the best way to follow up? They haven't responded to my follow up e mail. I can, of course, call them and follow up but was just wondering any dos and donts there.

Thanks.

There's no harm in calling to inquire since they said that the decision deadline was the 15th. However, be prepared for them to say "Hold on...." and then say "I don't know what happened, but you've been accepted/rejected." Just be mentally prepared for that scenario.

Can you log into the computer system to see if maybe the decision was posted and an email just didn't go out?

My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.

Follow up for sure! They have committed to a certain date and they should give you an answer (of course be super polite about it!)
and best of luck!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
