HBS Puts a Halt to My Streak

I am on the Wait List, which I think is pretty much a Ding. I guess this means I'm like 4.5 for 5. Maybe 4.25 since there is little chance of getting off the WL at HBS. :) Anyway, since I've had a lot of good fortune prior to this decision, the blow was definitely not that bad. What I did think was funny, though, was I got three emails from my family today to ask what the decision was and NONE of them emailed me for any of the other schools. Anyway, busy day at work so gotta run. Congrats to the bloggers that did get in!

Rungee..thanks for the confidence. I think the Waitlist is something that sucks, esp. at HBS. So are ya thinking about Ross then?

Well, WL sure sucks... but with admits from other wonderful schools, you have no reason to worry. are you leaning towards any particular school yet?

Oh no! That's unexpected news.

But hey - even HBS doesnt have a 100% yield. There is still hope - i guess.

All the best.

Tough luck ... WL sucks but you have other good options.

Sorry to hear that ... but 4.5 out of 5 is a fantastic batting average. Best of luck with the waitlist, or whatever school you decide to enroll in. =)

@cornfed, broadway, juggler, jatwarrior: Still not sure of where to go and trying to wade through my priorities and options but I'm leaning Wharton right now.

@ all: thanks for the words of encouragement. :)

Sorry to hear that, but still you've got other nice schools to choose from even if HBS says no in the end.

aw.. ! K.. WL !

But I am sure with the other schools in hand this should be managable. So are you navigating this WL ?
