I have applied to Stan, LBS, IESE

Not expecting much this year as it was a last minute scramble to put the apps together. I'm pretty sure I couldn't do justice to my background as I didn't have enough time to weave a compelling story through my essays..

Stan is a ding for sure as they have already sent out the invites for R3 and I would've got one if I had to by now.

It'll be a miracle if i get through even after applying in R4/R5 in IESE/LBS.

Keeping my fingers crossed!!

Eric, thanks once again for this lovely forum.

If not for the resources and strategies that i found here, i would not have scored the 750 I did and i definitely would not have been admitted to my dream school - Ross!

Got the news today and i wanted to be back to the place from where it all started an year ago....

Keep up the good work and all the very best..

Woo hoo! Congrats on your Ross acceptance--and thanks for that note. I can speak for the whole community when I say that we're thrilled to see one of our own going to such a great b-school!

If you have any tips about the admissions process, please feel free to share in the Admissions Success Stories forum.

Have a great time this Fall! I grew up in Michigan, and Ann Arbor is probably my favorite town in the state.

You can be rest assured that I will be a BTG flag bearer in school and beyond!

Have been terribly caught up but plan to share my take on the admissions process in the other relevant forum soon.

And yes, hope to make it to Ann Arbor this fall--will let you know if I do, successfully!

Thanks again for your wishes!

Best,
