I have applied to a B school on October 12th and my application states it us under review from then till today. Before Jan 31st they say that all the applications will be reviewed and the decisions will be out! My concerns are growing because

1.A person I know has already been admitted. She has a better profile! Agreed! But she applied at least two weeks after I did!

2.Few ppl I know including the above person were interviewed. I have not been interviewed till now and I have not been given any date for an interview or anything like that. The people who were interviewed had profiles similar to mine!

3. For a few i spoke to, the college has sent their referees a mail asking them to confirm their inputs. My referees have not received any!

So wat do u think guys?? I think I am already out of contention! My decision should be out by Jan 31st!! Need some inputs from u guys!

Hi Padre,

I think anything I were to state in response to your post would be pure speculation. Each applicant to bschool is given individual consideration, therefore no two people may have the exact same experience. At this point I think all you can do is wait until the 31st. You can't (and shouldn't) intervene with the adcom at this point. I'm sorry I don't have anything more to offer.

Best of luck!

Stacey
